Complete Subterra Crafting Guide [All Crafting Recipes]

Author: Unknown Author Update Time: 2025-03-14

The most important thing in Subterra after mining, of course, is crafting! But how do you do it, and where do you find all the crafting recipes and resources? Well, you'll learn all that and more in our complete Subterra crafting guide and recipe list below. So, scroll down, and let's start crafting!

How to Craft in Subterra

The first step to start crafting in Subterra is to find the Crafting Altar, which is on the right side of the main plaza. The exact coordinates of the altar are X: 41, Y: -1 (you can check your current coordinates in the top left.).

Once at the Crafting Altar, equip the items into your hotbar (open inventory and then equip each item) and place them one by one on the 4 pedestals in the altar's corners. If you place the items according to a recipe, the altar will light up, and you can then interact with the pedestal in the middle to craft the item. Here are some notes regarding the crafting altar:

  • You can stack the same items on a single pedestal.
  • You can cancel the craft and get the resources back by interacting with the pedestal in the middle.
  • Some items won't appear on the pedestal after you place them. They'll still be counted for the craft, though.
  • Don't forget to wait and pick up the item after you craft it.

How to Discover Crafting Recipes?

The default way of discovering crafting recipes in Subterra is to find them as drops. Then, you can consume the recipe item to learn how to craft it. However, you can also craft the item without learning the recipe in-game by copying it from our list or some other source. Once you craft the item for the first time this way, you'll learn the recipe forever and have it appear in your codex on the bottom left.
