The Surge 2 allows a player to craft gear and upgrade their gear, implants, and weapons. The players are needed to be at a Medbay, which are checkpoints in The Surge 2. Players require schematics to craft gear, and components to upgrade weapons, implants, and gear.
The Surge 2 Crafting
This guide will breakdown all the components of crafting.
Schematics
You can obtain schematics by attacking an enemy’s limb that is equipped with the gear that you desire. Once you get the particular schematic, you will be able to craft that specific gear.

The fastest way to get your hands on some schematics is to attack your enemy’s limbs. To get a full set, you will have to fight an enemy at least four times since you have to dismember the whole limb in order to get the schematic that you may desire.
Besides the schematic, you will also receive materials for the limb that you dismembered. Note that you will only require one schematic to craft both arm slots and one for both leg slots.
If you decapitate your enemy, you will get implants. Make sure that you have a battery charge so that you can execute your enemy when they’re low on health power. I advise that you focus on the limb with the equipment that you desire.
If you do not damage the limb enough, you will not trigger the execution, which will kill your enemy before you can get their health power low enough.
Components
These are another type of items in The Surge 2. components are used to craft gear and upgrade weapons, gear, and implants. components may be acquired by landing a finishing attack/blow on any specified armored limbs of an enemy.
There are multiple tiers for different components, where components of higher tiers can be dissembled into two components of the lower/preceding tier. Low tier components cannot be used to craft higher tier components.

Crafting
Crafting will allow you to construct or upgrade your player’s armor by the use of schematics, components, and Tech Scrap.
Head Gear
The schematics and components required for Head Gear can be acquired by the player if you land a killing blow/attack on the enemy’s armored head.
Body Gear
The schematics and components required for Body Gear can be acquired by the player if you land a killing blow/attack on the enemy’s armored chest.
Arms Gear
The schematics and components required for Arms Gear can be acquired by the player if you land a killing blow/attack on the enemy’s armored arms, both right or left.
Legs Gear
The schematics and components required for Legs Gear can be acquired by the player if you land a killing blow/attack on the enemy’s armored legs, both right or left.
Once you’ve gathered the schematic, you can craft it at a Medbay by using the Construct option, where you’ll be able to see all your available schematics.
Hover over the desired gear and you will be able to see its required components and Tech Scrap.
Click on the interaction button which will fill the bar. Once the bar is completely filled, you’ll see a prompt which will confirm completion.

Weapon Upgrading
You can’t craft weapons in the game so you will have to obtain weapons by performing a finishing/killing blow on the limb where the desired weapon is located.
Weapons can also be upgraded at Medbay if they’re in your possession by the use of components and Tech Scrap. Upgrading your weapons will give you more damage and increases weapon stats.
| Mk. Level | Tech Scrap | Tungsten Alloy |
| I | 185 | Tungsten Alloy Mk.I X3 |
| II | 864 | Tungsten Alloy Mk.II X3 |
| III | 1,234 | Tungsten Alloy Mk.III X3 |
| IV | 1,727 | Tungsten Alloy Mk.IV X3 |
| V | – | Tungsten Alloy Mk.V X3 |
| VI | – | Tungsten Alloy Mk.VI X3 |
| VII | – | Tungsten Alloy Mk.VII X3 |
| VIII | – | Tungsten Alloy Mk.VIII X3 |
| IX | – | Tungsten Alloy Mk.IX X3 |
| X | – | Tungsten Alloy Mk.X X3 |
Implant Upgrading
Although you can not craft implants, you will have to obtain weapons by performing a finishing/killing blow on the limb where the implant weapon is located.
Only Injectable Implants can be upgraded at Medbay if they’re in your possession by the use of components and Tech Scrap.
Upgrading Injectable Implants will provide you with extra charges while allowing you to store more of them at the same time. This helps players prepare well for more difficult areas in the game, or even boss fights.
| Mk. Level | Tech Scrap | Implant Circuitry |
| I | 617 | Implant Circuitry Mk.I X3 |
| II | 4,319 | Implant Circuitry Mk.II X3 |
| III | 6,170 | Implant Circuitry Mk.III X3 |
| IV | 8,638 | Implant Circuitry Mk.IV X3 |
| V | – | Implant Circuitry Mk.V X3 |
| VI | – | Implant Circuitry Mk.VI X3 |
| VII | – | Implant Circuitry Mk.VII X3 |
| VIII | – | Implant Circuitry Mk.VIII X3 |
| IX | – | Implant Circuitry Mk.IX X3 |
| X | – | Implant Circuitry Mk.X X3 |
