Rust Workbench 2 cost: check the current recipe

Rust Workbench 2 cost: the exact full current recipe is UNSURE in this guide. Facepunch's November 5 release removes blueprint fragments from workbench crafting, while the developer wiki still lists the older fragment-based recipe. Do not farm five Basic fragments on the strength of that outdated shopping list.

Avoid the wrong resource run

Open the actual recipe on your current server first. Compare the item names as well as the numbers, then record only what you are missing. Metal ore and Metal Fragments are different inventory items. Check the server's version before using an older recipe.

Hizzle recommends recording only what you are missing. For example, if your displayed recipe needs 500 Metal Fragments and you hold 180, the remaining amount is 320, simple subtraction rather than a game income forecast.

When another guide says scrap

Workbench crafting, Research Table research and tech-tree unlocks are separate costs. The November release establishes the rule change, but the conflicting wiki does not establish a reconciled full replacement bill. Use your current menu and preserve the server/version details. Console Edition prices need their own source.
