How to get Sedatives in Starfield

Finding Sedatives won't tire you out.

Tracking down resources in Starfield can be tricky, and getting your hands on Sedatives is no different.

The Sedative resource in Starfield is typically used for crafting items, but it’s not immediately apparent how to get hold of it. Below you’ll find the two options available for obtaining Sedatives in Bethesda’s space-faring RPG.

You can harvest Sedatives from Hunting Tuskfrogs in Starfield. I’ve found that the best way to find these critters, and harvest Sedatives from them, is to go to the Fracking Station on the other side of Jemison. To the left of the landing site, I found several dead Tuskfrogs lying around, meaning I’ve so far only needed to loot their corpses without actually killing them to obtain Sedatives.

It can be difficult to find these Tuskfrogs (dead or alive), so I recommend using your scanner to hunt them down. They should be in the grass near the Pack Coralbugs and Apex Parrothawks.

When you loot a Sedative from its corpse, it is added to the resources tab of your inventory.
