| 20 x Rare Metal 5 x Processed Construction Materials 60 x Coke 10 MW of power | 1 x Rare Alloys | 00:03:00 |
The Dry Dock must be fully researched in the Weapons and Structure
Tech Tree in order for the material to be produced.
Use
Due to their value and rarity, it is important to not waste them and to keep them secured in an area that cannot be easily destroyed.
Structure Construction
Rare Alloys are used in the construction of Dry Docks and A0E-9 Rocket Platforms.
It is also used to install the Naval Works and Rocket Manufactory upgrades on Small Assembly Station]s.

Storage
It does not stack in inventories (1 per slot). It can be stored in the stockpiles of Bases (32k max), Facilities that produces it (32k), Material Pallets (120), Material Transfer Stations (1000), Rooster - Tumblebox Trailer (32), and Small Flatbed Car (100).
It can be crated (need stack of 1 per crate) and uncrated with the right click context menu while interfacing a Seaport, Storage Depot, Aircraft Depot, or Shipping Container. Crates of Rare Alloys created that way are not reservable.
Crates of Rare Alloys can be directly submitted to any item stockpile that accepts that item to transfer their content. The crates can also be stored in the crate stockpiles of Storage Depot/Seaport/Aircraft Depot (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Shipping Containers (60), or Storage Ships (1000).
It can be transported by almost any vehicle with inventory slots, but is most commonly transported by Trucks, Small Flatbed Car, or shipping vehicles carrying Material Pallets. Delivering it in crate form is possible but extremely inefficient.
Tips
- Due to the relative scarcity of obtaining its raw resource, it is highly recommended for any logi players not planning on constructing Large Ships or Rockets to give them to players who are going to build them, or to store them in places with easy to see Stockpiles.
- Similar to other facility materials, it must be refined in a facility (more specifically, a Metalworks Factory with a Blast Furnace upgrade.
Trivia
- During the devbranch of 1.54 Naval Warfare, Rare Alloys used to be called Rare Metals. This was later changed from community feedback due to their confusing names.
