How to get radon

[Krodius]

I need 250 radon to make the autophage staff and I have been looking for hours on both irradiated and frozen planets but I can't find any hotspots are above C and produce more than 2 per hour. Is there a better way to get radon instead of this

[bigdgaff]

The Stellar Extractor Room on the freighter gathers radon if you are in a blue system. I doubt it is the fastest way, but it is steady income. You could probably line up several extractor rooms to speed things up.

Atmosphere harvesters on radioactive worlds will give you radon and you don't need to find a hotspot.

[Mirri]

You can also find it in mutant plants if you come across any.

IIRC some underwater plants also give them (but this may restricted to specific type of toxic weather oceanic based planet.

You can refine it if you can't get it directly. I can't remember the recipes offhand but if you have nitrogen or the other one, you can use the condensed metal? or something like that with it to get the amount you need.

Atmospheric Refiner will get you one of those gases depending on the planet you install it.

Refine it from Nitrogen or Sulferine.

3x Nitrogen -> 1x Sulfurine.
Then...
3x Sulfurine -> 1x Radon

I believe you can combine Oxygen with either process to make the yield higher.

C is plenty.... put 8 extractor on it then enough depot to store 20K (2 stacks).

If you really want a big amount, you can turn nitrogen and sulphurine from other bases into radon by refining them with oxygen.

The better recipes:

1 Nitrogen + 1 Chromatic Metal -> 1 Sulfurine
1 Sulfurine + 1 Chromatic Metal -> 1 Radon

and if you make too much:

1 Radon + 1 Chromatic Metal -> 1 Nitrogen

with precedents others explanations it will be ok:
-Some times in radiative planets, under water you have big vegetals ballons, get them.
-Find a radon spot if you are advanced in game and put an automated collector on it.

1 Sulfurine and oxygen makes 1 radon. cheaper than 3 sulfurine to me anyway.

Same with Sulfurine. 1 nitrogen and 1 oxygen make 1 sulfurine.

Resource Depots may supply Radon if you don't mind raiding them. Visit a few different sites until you have what you need. And one Stellar Extractor provides 350 Radon in a 24-hr period if you park in a Blue star system.

You are trying to make a Superconductor, to craft the Voltaic Staff head, and haven't even got any Enriched Carbon (that's the part you need Radon for). You're going to need Nitrogen and Sulphurine to make the ingredients for the Semiconductor too (Thermic Condensate, Nitrogen Salt).

Your fastest method is definitely going to be to raid supply depots.

Although I usually build up a stock of all of those sorts of high value materials (Superconductor/Semiconductor) from Frigate Expedition rewards.

[frazzled]

If you don't need a lot, I've been seeing it offered from some guild desks on space stations. Rare, but there.

But if you want/need a LOT of it, find a Radon hot spot and set up some extractors. Its an investment that pays off in the future, if that's what you need.

There's a plant to you can shoot. I name escapes me right now. You can a bunch of them like curious balls only for radon. I have 2 bunches and got 3k+.
