Dead Island 2: All Consumable Blueprint Locations
Looking for the 6 blueprints in Dead Island 2 that let you make consumable items? Here they are, and pass the gunpowder.
Sometimes you have to make your own luck, and by that, we mean bullets. There are six blueprints found throughout Dead Island 2 that will allow you to fabricate ammunition and health kits at any workbench. Here are the locations of all the blueprints in DI2.
Your first consumable blueprint is made available as part of the game's tutorial, just after "Bel-Air Brawl." Carlos will call out to you after you mod your first weapon and let you know that he's offering you the Medkit blueprint for free. You can buy it from him at any time after that.
It's quite a while before you see another blueprint, because it can be quite a while before you get your first gun. All 5 of the other available consumable blueprints in Dead Island 2 are for various types of ammunition, so they only show up after the story quest "Justifiable Zombicide" in Beverly Hills.
The other major consumable in DI2, Fuses, can only be bought in limited quantities from traders. Sadly, given some of the other crimes against electricity you can commit in DI2, you can't figure out how to DIY a broken junction box.
Once you have a blueprint, you can make Medkits or ammo at any workbench via the Fabricate menu (below).

All 6 consumable blueprints in Dead Island 2 can be bought from the following traders after you complete the associated quests. Note that all but the Medkit Blueprint cost $625.
In case you haven't memorized everyone's names yet:
Rodriguez is the toughest to reach. If you make it through her gauntlet of traps and speak with her, she offers the side quest "Cremains of the Day" and becomes available as a trader. (Her dialogue suggests that she won't trade with you until after you finish "Cremains," but you can shop with her beforehand.) It's worth the effort, as Rodriguez also sells a new Curveball.
As a general rule, Medkits and ammunition are plentiful, and any that you find out in the world will eventually respawn. If you’re just looking to stock up, crafting isn't your most efficient option. Medkits require Adhesive, which is in high demand for many of your best weapon mods, and ammunition uses Gunpowder, which is one of the less common materials.
On the other hand, if you’re in a tight spot and out of resources, being able to craft a few bullets and a Medkit might make all the difference in the world. It's better to have the option, even if you don't typically need it. For more details on Dead Island 2‘s dizzying variety of collectible items, check out our other DI2 guides.
