Guess which quest rewarded it...

I guarantee you this will become like gold bars in red dead online where you need to pay $7 per mission as these will only drop from paid quests. It's just more stupid design from a morally and creatively bankrupt company.

I found a bunch of those in loot chests. what are they for?

I found one in the mantis lair and another at some poi loot chest. Is it a crafting item?

You trade Astras for rare/epic/legendary items when interacting with Stashe in the Tracker’s basements. 3 astras = legendary item (can endlessly reroll).

@Ellorien - try equiping a melee weapon before claiming the item from Stache... It probably has NO bearing on the outcome but hey lucky underwear exists...

I only get the western themed weapons: tombstone, coachman, bridger, various western pistols. Never a legendary A-99 which would make me very happy.

And I have progressed, gambled 3 of the things and got a gun that any level 10 player would be proud to own.

Are you level 10? Most every weapon I get is "advanced", but I'm also level 135.

I am level 80 or so, lost track. I got an advanced lawgiver, with about 1/3 the damage potential of anything I would consider using, with no potential to mod it well enough to be anything usable. But hey, they can't all be winners :)
Honestly if I DO get like a legendary magshot with good rolls I will probably never move to the next NG+...

So my Post #14 & #16 in this thread.
You can get unlimited, you can console them in, you can change the global variable that Stache uses for his price to 0...

Do you have a example console command on how to set Stache's price to 0?

[Doombringer]

The astra costs are actually Global variables.
(FD00E2F2 SFBGS003_Astras_LargeAmount, FD00E2F1 SFBGS003_Astras_MedAmount, FD00E2F0 SFBGS003_Astras_SmallAmount)
Note, these are not from the main Starfield.esm, so BaseID might be a little different due to loading order...
you can open console and use:
help astras
then use pgup button to scroll up if it spits out too many results
You are looking for the BaseID for SFBGS003_Astras_LargeAmount, if it is different than what I listed.
It is a GLOB - global variable, so:
set BaseID 0
should change it (from its default value of 3) to 0

Thanks, I'll give it a try!

My first one was in a chest in Vectera in the mining building where you start, in NG+

I wish they rewarded one for each HQ board mission.

Well those missions have a chance to get one. The POI ones have a chance to have one in the boss chest. The spaceship missions have a chance to have one in the ship's captain's locker when you board it. Though they don't directly get given to you when you complete the mission.

I found 6 astra total so far. Bought 2 legendary weapons from Stache. And now they've seem to have dried up. No more astra in boss crates. Has anyone else received more than 2 items from Stache?

I know I'm late in responding here, but I've had something very similar happened to me.

Before I ever joined the Tracker's Alliance, I had found one Astra. Then I joined and eventually found six more. I cashed in for two legendary weapons, and now I have one Astra left in my inventory.

I've since done about six or seven bounties successfully, and I have not found a single other Astra. I've also completed a lot of other quests and taken out a number of bosses and opened boss chests, but I haven't found any more Astra that way either. Seven Astra in total so far, and six of those after joining.

I'm OK with a little farming, but I'm starting to think I'm just not going to ever find another one. I might just spawn in one Astra for every two Tracker's missions I complete or something.

Think I have just under 40 rattling around in the cargo hold... and I have only done four or five TA missions. The rest I found just wandering around, and into places that everyone wanted to kill me. :D
