Combat SMG Ammo
Ammo · ConsumeBullet0★Feeds the Combat SMG. Requires an Ancient Workbench to make.
This is where the crafting chain ends — nothing downstream consumes it, so a stockpile earns you nothing.
Details
It weighs almost nothing and stacks to 9,999, so there is no reason not to carry a full stack.
Combat SMG Ammo Crafting Recipe
Soralite Ingot
Gunpowder
Wood×24
Sulfur×6
Pure Quartz×4
Soralite×4Crafting it takes 8 materials across 2 types, and the bottleneck is almost always the 6× requirement — line that up first and the rest follows. Each craft returns 20, so the real cost per unit is lower than the list suggests.

Using Combat SMG Ammo Well
One round serves the entire Combat SMG line. The stock gun (Combat SMG) and every schematic build above it, up to the legendary one rolled from Combat SMG Schematic 4 (Combat SMG Schematic 4), chamber this same bullet — a schematic upgrade changes attack, durability and magazine size, never the ammunition. Anything you stockpile the day you unlock the gun still feeds it after a legendary drops.
Craft in threes and the magazine maths works out. A batch yields 20, the base Combat SMG holds 42 rounds and the legendary build holds 50, so two batches leave you short of a full mag either way and three (60) cover a reload with change. The bill for three batches is 6 Soralite Ingot and 18 Gunpowder.
The Ancient Workbench requirement is the real gate, not the ore. Soralite comes off the sky islands in bulk and Gunpowder is ordinary bench work, but neither can be turned into these rounds at a normal weapon workbench — the recipe lives on the Ancient Workbench alone, and the technology behind it sits at level 68 for 2 points.
Weapons That Fire Combat SMG Ammo
