RECOMBINATOR Mashine needs serious rework.

recombinators are a crucial part of the ssf progression. they enable you to get rare 2x T1 Mod items for every slot apart from weapons very easily. they dont need a buff or nerf.
if you think they are bad or useless for whatever reason, you clearly dont know how powerful they are.

if you feel like you get too few materials try actually playing maps with modifiers and logbooks. they drop tons of them. i usually dont even pick them up after a few days because they drop in such huge quantities.

as time passes more crafting methods will get introduced and you can engage with those if you feel like you dont want to use recombs.
