    This might be easier to see?

    I'm just glad I wasn't cursed with my normal common + CD % badges that I normally acquire.

    Off subject is this guy worth the time and effort to level up this stage of the game

    Not sure, but maybe in a new thread it would get better ROI?

    @ShadowaceAz i would need the component TYPE to help us in determining if and what recipes there are. Do you have those?

    TLDR; sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but there are no recipes.

    It was more or less established, when badges were first introduced, that there are no "recipes". Hundreds (upon hundreds) of initial recordings across the community yeilded no discernible patterns. Even attempted recreations of known outcomes couldnt reliably be duplicated.

    Many people tried all same types of same rarity of componenets, one of each type, same rarities, even others just plain randomised the first try, then tried to duplicate using the same setup, to no avail.

    There doesnt seem to be any rhyme or reason for having 4 types of components, the results are always randomised.

    I can't find it nor remember where, but at one point one of the employees, not mod, even came out and said the results are random.

    There are no secret formula recipes.

    Creating a Badge requires the following resources:
    - A previously built Scavenger and Craftsman building [see Components, above].
    - One 'Badge Fragment' Component of any rarity.
    - Four other Components of any rarity: Cloth, Metal, Chemicals, or Edibles in any combination.
    - A small amount of Supplies [the exact amount is based on your Council Level].

    Spending these resources in the Craftsman will reward you with one Badge with the following randomly-chosen characteristics:

    Please give me back the 20 minutes of my life from the searching... :wink:

    The Forum search conditions are near upon a state of worthless.

    Well, a well-known chief developer recently hinted (strongly) that yes, no sure-fire recipes, BUT certain recipes give you higher chances at certain badge traits.
    And also, my initial testing with around 600 crafting results seem to confirm that.

    If anyone still has their input at hand and wants to contribute, they are welcome.

    Any chance you have a reference for that?

    Hmmm.
    Too bad information is not shared to all. Then again, the folks in the forum are a minor percentage of the players anyway.

    Alas poor knowledge, you elude me well!

    This has been stated on the forum before. I'm quite sure of it, though I'm not inclined to go digging for the thread right now.

    Last of my badge creating:
    All Epic: 1 Epic, 1 LEG
    3* Frag, 4* INGs: 1 Rare, 1 Epic
    2* Frag, 3* INGs: 3 Uncommon, 2 Rare
    1* Frag: 3* INGs: 8 Common, 19 Uncommon, 13 Rare, 9 Epic

    @Putchuco -- if you REALLY want the breakdown of all the ingredients used in each badge...
    https://youtu.be/WzQM-7NDqTE
    (everything is there, but edited so you don't see me swapping out ingredients...i do swap up ingredients at times so there are many that aren't just one of each...my only creation not shown in the video is a 1* frag with one of each 3* ingredients that resulted in an Epic Damage Badge = 364 with Strong bonus +91/NE position/Set A)
