Drop Box

Its cheapest raid is 31 × Explosive 5.56 Rifle Ammo, 775 sulfur in all. Each of these also brings it down from full health: 1 × Timed Explosive Charge, 1 × Rocket and 3 × Satchel Charge. Its protection takes 50% off every explosion.

Crafting one takes 15 seconds at a Level 1 Workbench and costs 200 × Metal Fragments.

Reduction is how much of that damage type never lands. Damage taken is the rest: at 50% reduction a hit for 100 does 50. A negative reduction means the hit lands harder than it would bare.

A green recycler always gives back 100 × Metal Fragments for one.

From full health (100 HP), each one placed on it: damage per hit is after its protection. Duds are throws that fizzle and need another throw, not counted in Needed. Costs are for the whole count, crafted from raw materials.
