How to get the Repair Tool in Subnautica 2

Obtaining the repair tool requires scanning three broken repair tools around Subnautica 2's ocean with your scanner. Doing this advances your blueprint progress, with three entries unlocking its respective crafting recipe in your Fabricator.

Repair Tool blueprint fragment location #1

The first repair tool blueprint fragment becomes accessible during Subnautica 2's main storyline. NOA will guide you to Chap's blackbox 220 meters south of the Lifepod. Here, you'll find a hidden cave room full of items you can scan. Among these is a broken repair tool atop a table.

Repair Tool blueprint fragment location #2

You can find your second repair tool blueprint fragment near Chap's blackbox. By traveling 250 meters southeast of the Lifepod, you'll encounter a large ruined structure underwater to explore. After heading inside, you'll spot the repair tool on a set of benches.

Repair Tool blueprint fragment location #3

The final repair tool blueprint fragment is located within a ruined building 350 meters northeast of the Lifepod. By heading below the building, swimming up through an entrance at the bottom of it's base, and turning toward two closed doorways, you'll spot the repair tool on the floor, ready to scan.

This location is deep in the water, so I'd recommend upgrading your air tank for increased oxygen. Otherwise, you run the risk of running out of oxygen unless you pack some extra air bladders.

Repair Tool crafting recipe in Subnautica 2

Once you scan all three repair tools, you'll unlock its crafting recipe within your Fabricator. You'll need the following materials to make the repair tool:

• Titanium Ingot (1)
• Wiring Kit (1)
• Basic Battery (1)
• Sulfur (1)

All three of these items are tricky to obtain, especially if you're still in the early game. Titanium ingots require acquiring and building a processor, while wiring kits are available to craft in your Fabricator using silver and copper wire. Similarly, you can find basic batteries inside storage crates or craft it using copper ore and Acidic Raion Pouches.

The hardest material to obtain is Sulfur, as it spawns exclusively within the high temperature volcanic biome east of the Lifepod. To access it, you'll need the Heat Tolerance Adaptation from the Bloom-infested Angel Comb west of the Lifepod.
