Most of the crafting in Dying Light: The Beast has a great number of rare materials that players need to obtain in order to get the best gadgets, consumables, and weapons. But players need to get the Blueprints before they can even craft a single item in the game. Some of them can be crafted manually, and others need a Workbench, but all of them are a little bit tricky to find.
This guide will pinpoint the exact location of every blueprint in the game, from Weapons to ammo, gadgets, consumables, and even some of the most elusive Mods and Legendary weapons. Take note of every schematic in Dying Light: The Beast, and destroy all the undead in Castor Woods with a full arsenal.
All Consumable Blueprints in Dying Light: The Beast
Consumables are single-use items that can heal and boost Kyle Crane's stats (Defense, Regeneration, Stamina, Attack), but only a few of these are available as blueprints. These can be found in Dark Zone Pharmacies or sold by Traders. Here's a complete list of every Consumable Blueprint players can find in Castor Woods, alongside their location:
Bandage: This blueprint is given automatically to the players as they complete the introductory quest.
Regeneration Booster: This blueprint is located in the Villa Area (North of the Map), in the Pharmacy located in the Golden Pine zone. Enter the Pharmacy Dark Zone, clear the nest, and claim the recipe from the locked room by picking the door lock.
Stamina Booster: The blueprint for the Stamina Booster can be acquired from the Vendor at the Exile's Cave, and players will arrive to this place while completing the 'Some Like it Dark' Main Story Quest.
Attack Booster: The Blueprint for the Attack Booster is sold by Doug in the Town Hall. Players can visit this place relatively early during the Main Story, so they should acquire this as a top priority to increase their chances of defeating the strongest enemies in the game.
Resistance Booster: To get this blueprint, travel to the Old Town area, to the Pharmacy Dark Zone west of the Town Hall, and clear the zombie nest inside. Then, open the locked room and pick up the blueprint from the locker.
Repair Kit: To obtain this blueprint, players must complete the Fast and Fortunate secondary quest, completing all the Racing Challenges and earning at least a Bronze Medal, then returning to Doug to collect the 'final reward', which is basically the blueprint to create a Repair Kit to fix cars. Players need to stand near the hood of the car with a Repair Kit in their inventory to interact with it and repair the vehicle.
Last Hand Of Glova: Travel to the train bridge near the Monastery Safe Zone, and look for a crumbled wall on the eastern side of the bridge. The wall that says 9 3/4 can be crossed, which leads to an area with Minecraft-like brick walls. Break them to access a tunnel with some train wagons. In one of the Wagons, players will find the Blueprint for this cheat weapon/consumable.
All Mods Blueprints in Dying Light: The Beast
