Crafting it takes 5 materials across 3 types, and the bottleneck is almost always the 3× 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.

Where to Find Missile Ammo

If you would rather just buy it, the seller is Caravan Shop at 3,240 Gold.

It also shows up as world loot — crates on the oil rigs and crates on the large oil rig, usually 20–100 at a time.

Using Missile Ammo Well

The Missile Ammo technology sits at level 56 and costs a single technology point. The Guided Missile Launcher tech unlocks at that same level for 5 points, so one visit to the tech screen at 56 buys both the launcher and the ability to feed it.

Two weapons burn this ammo: the Guided Missile Launcher and the Multi Guided Missile Launcher. The Multi loads 4 missiles per magazine against the single-shot launcher's 1, so it empties a stack four times as fast between reloads — a 10-missile craft is ten shots on one and two and a half magazines on the other.

The Computer is the real bottleneck in the recipe, not the ore. Every batch of 10 eats one, and a Computer itself wants Plasteel x3, Circuit Board x2, Bio Battery x2 and Carbon Fiber x2 — so sustained missile use means a standing production chain for those four, not just a Pal Metal run.

Schematic rarity raises the launcher's damage but never the ammo cost — a base launcher hits for 5,900 per missile and the legendary tier for 8,850, both spending one Missile Ammo per shot. Chasing better missile launcher schematics is therefore a straight 50% damage gain for the same Pal Metal Ingot and Computer spend.
