Farmable Iodine tablets?
Anyone know if any specific anteverse has any farmable med kits with iodine tablets? Just figured I'd ask here before searching through them all. I just went through the train to no avail. Next is proly Flathill, but if anyone knows for sure, please let me know.
Thanks.

I'll check Rise, hold

Rise has at least 4 medkits, and I just got an iodine tablet from each

I have not found anywhere iodine respawns, but get first aid to 4 and you can farm flathill for the ingredients to make pentetic acid syringes, which are functionally identical to iodine tabs, just 2 fewer stack size.

The craftable have the exact same effect. And yes, rise has a lot of med kits with iodine.

Craftable rad meds reduce and prevent while iodine just prevents.

Not true, they both reduce radiation by 10 and give you the shield buff.

your best bet is rise as it is short and placing a workbench in the executive office at the top guarantees you can hit all the easy medkits in the reception area and labs below.

there might be a couple in flathill but I usually go there for acid and other components so I don't remember.

Not exactly wrong in real life since iodine tablets are for preventing the uptake of certain radioactive elements just before exposure, but this isn't real life.

As you can see, both give a -10 to accumulated Rads and the Rad Resistant buff.


As for renewable versions, I don't think I can be much help; I'm having a hard time remember where I saw some, if at all. I don't remember Rise having any, but I also wasn't looking (odds are in the Med Kits, assuming there are any), and I'm wanting to say Voussoir as well, but I'm likely wrong on that one.

But on a tangent note: as for renewable anti-rad meds in general, the Pentetic Acid Syringe is likely your best bet, since those materials are very much renewable, and getting to level four First Aid skill isn't too hard.

Ironically, fishing for Rad gives you a couple cooking options for Radiation protection, though not reduction.
