Ancient Fabricator

Summary
Ancient Fabricators are found exclusively on Hard maps. They are used to craft Fragment Tablets by using Fragments and Torque.

In one-time use Ancient Fabricators only a single tablet can be made before the fabricator is rendered useless.

For the best chance of success to make a tablet 100 fragments and 400 torque are required in a temporary Fabricator (This is not a 100% chance of success as it will return 0-4 Tablets)

Larger Ancient Fabricators will be hotly contested but can make multiple tablets. It requires 100 fragments and 1000 torque for a 100% chance of success, for best results it's recommended to place 400 fragments in with 1,000 torque to yield 4-7 Tablets at a time. Full cycle with 1,000 torque takes 5 minutes complete.

Sometimes the onetime use fabricator will produce 1 to 4 or more tablets.

Crafting time for tablets is long and impossible to cancel so one must be prepared to defend themselves.

Tablets are extremely vital to learning high tier recipes such as high tier Walkers, Weapons, Crafting Stations, and more!

How To Use

 * As mentioned above, 100 fragments and 400 torque is required for a nearly guaranteed chance to make a tablet (failure can still occur, despite what the tool tip says). However nomads can risk chance of failure by putting in lower amounts of either.
 * Learn how to obtain shards at the Fragment page.
 * Torque is passively made in walkers once the Torque upgrade is made. This can be further enhanced by installing a Torque module, although the Torque Windmill is recommended.
 * Torque Battery is used to transfer torque from sources to the Ancient Fabricator.
 * The Ancient Fabricator takes 2 minutes (4x 30 seconds) to complete the process of making a tablet.
 * You will also receive shattered fragments as a bi-product.
 * It seems to be random which kind of tablet you get. The three types are Animal, Celestial and Elemental.
 * Also it is possible to get more than one tablet per craft from the Ancient Fabricators, yet this seems to be a low chance.
