How to Get the Right Ingredients for the Lab in Rogue Trader

You’ll come upon the lab when exploring Eurac V in Rogue Trader, trying to fix the Elevator Control Rod. Within the same room as the way to fix it is a machine with four different inputs for ingredients: a Tissue Flask, Data Crypt Connector, Catalyst Flask, and Regent Flask. These ingredients can be found as lootable items both in the lab and in the previous areas. They can also be on the bodies of the enemies you killed in the previous room, if you forgot to loot them.

Additionally, certain minerals will need to be fed into the Transducer opposite of the main machine to grind them into the materials needed. For example, one of the below recipes needs Crystal Dust, which can be made by putting a Psi-Crystal into the Transducer.

Note:

If you put the incorrect ingredients into each slot, you won’t be able to pull them back out and the resulting recipe will destroy the machine. The only way to fix this is to load a save from before touching the machine.

Either way, you can make two recipes in the Lab using the various ingredients located on Eurac V. The first recipe will create six Adaptive Antidot, which grants immunity to Toxic damage until combat concludes:

  • Tissue Flask: Mutated Flesh Sample
  • Data Crypt Connector: H-41-OK
  • Catalyst Flask: Biogel
  • Reagent Flask: Crystal Dust

The second recipe will create six Elixir of Warp Neutrality, which grants immunity to Warp damage until the end of combat on use:

  • Tissue Flask: Flesh Sample
  • Data Crypt Connector: K-04-OH
  • Catalyst Flask: Unidentified Acid
  • Reagent Flask: Adamantium Dust

How to Use Consumables

If you want to use either of these consumables in battle, you’ll want to place them into one of the four Consumable slots on your party member of choice. This will let you select to use it at any point, similar to Medikits found earlier in the game.
