Ore×2
Electric Organ×1
Flame Organ×1Crafting it takes 3 materials across 2 types, and the bottleneck is almost always the 2× requirement — line that up first and the rest follows. Each craft returns 10, so the real cost per unit is lower than the list suggests.

Using Energy Shotgun Ammo Well
The recipe is on the Technology tree at level 63 for a single Technology point, so the ammo itself is nearly free to learn. The catch is the gun: Energy Shotgun sits on the same level 63 rung and asks 5 points, so plan for 6 points landing together the moment you hit 63. Buying the ammo without the weapon is only worth it if you already pulled an Energy Shotgun Schematic out of a chest.
One craft returns 10 rounds, which is exactly one magazine on the plain Energy Shotgun and just under one on the top schematic build (14). Queue in multiples if you want spare mags rather than a single reload — a run at the Advanced Weapon Assembly Line producing 5 batches covers roughly four full magazines of the strongest tier.
At 990 Gold a round from the Caravan Shop this is one of the most expensive things you can put in a magazine, and a full 14-round mag of bought ammo runs about 13,860 Gold. Crafting is the default here; treat the shop as an emergency top-up on the road, not a supply line.
Weapons That Fire Energy Shotgun Ammo
5 weapons take Energy Shotgun Ammo, which makes it worth stockpiling — one crafting run supplies the whole class.
