Prey
Are there any items in the game that I should not Recycle?
I am early in the game, but there are dozens and dozens of items and I have no idea which ones I should keep and which ones I should recycle.

Could anyone give me some hints on which items have a use without being recycled?

Like the flower petals. Should those be recycled or can they be used for something else.

Thanks in advance.

Make sure to manually recycle unnecessary weapons (unless you play survival mode and those can break) : if you find a gun and already have one take it (it will add any ammo inside it to yours) and recycle it when you get the chance.

Quest items are marked with a cross on them and can't be recycled.

Just recycle the Junk, they make it easy for you at the recycler.

Been a while since I've played, but there are neuromods that allow you to get more from recycling, so if you want to get the most out of everything you may want to wait a while before recycling.

Make use of recycler grenades. I've never been short on materials

Using recycle grenades to gain resources is just not working. I spend 15 minutes piling trash in a heap and still get less resources from it than the grenade itself costs to produce. Maybe you're playing on easy or something?
This game gets really suffering to play after 10 or so hours, when all the enemies keep respawning, but all the resources are gone.

Hello fellow r-tard, this happens to be the most recent thread on the topic. Why make a new one instead of continuing this?
I found a list, but it seems mechs are the only things worth recycling with recycling grenades at all.
