The Recycler is an equipment in Risk of Rain 2.

This equipment can be used on dropped items and equipment to transform it into another, indicated by an orange reticle around the targeted item. The recycled item can be any item of the same tier, excluding the original item. Once an item has been recycled, it cannot be recycled again and displays a red "X" over the indicator.

Notes[]

  • When used along with a 3D Printer, this can be used to turn a random item (of the Printer's rarity) in the player's inventory into another random item.
    • If an Environment contains both a 3D Printer and a Scrapper Scrapper, the player can get alternative items by repeatedly printing, recycling, and scrapping any unwanted items. This can be especially useful for Mili-Tech and Overgrown 3D Printers, to find desirable Legendary and Boss items respectively.
  • This equipment is useful by eliminating unwanted items and providing a chance to turn them into something better.
  • Having a Gesture of the Drowned Gesture of the DrownedBgLunarGesture of the DrownedGesture of the Drowned
    Dramatically reduce Equipment cooldown... BUT it automatically activates.

    Reduce Equipment cooldown by 50% (+15% per stack). Forces your Equipment to activate whenever it is off cooldown.
    results in the Recycler automatically transforming items when players look at them. This can be avoided by walking into the item backwards, or otherwise keeping them out of the field of view before picking them up.
  • The Recycler can be used to recycle Lunar Items and Equipment as well as Void Items.
  • The Recycler recycles the Pickup Object that holds the displayed item. This means if there is an unwanted Pickup A and a desired Pickup B, the player can recycle Pickup A, transfer the item from Pickup B to Pickup A and then also recycle Pickup B. An easier to understand explanation would be that this equipment recycles "spots" where items are instead of items themselves.
    • In practice, this means that if there are two equipments in a stage and the player wishes to keep one but recycle the other, they can recycle the unwanted one and then swap their positions to then recycle the unwanted one again if desired, as the game will recognize that the recycler was used in two different locations and not that it was used on the same item.
