PC Robotic Sledge Recipe Is A Joke, Right?

50 Duct Tape to craft a q5?  My q5 Stun Baton cost 10.

Please, someone tell me this was a mistake.

I had thought that there would be a boost from the perks that would reduce the cost to craft items like some other trees have, but was unable to find anything.
