How to Craft a Stasis Device in No Man's Sky

Full Stasis Device crafting guide with every ingredient and sub-recipe. Sells for 15.6M units and shares components with the Fusion Ignitor.

The Stasis Device sells for 15,600,000 units and shares one major component (the Quantum Processor) with the Fusion Ignitor. The rest of the chain leans on plant farms rather than toxic and radioactive planet minerals, which makes it the preferred build for players with established Biodomes. Here’s every ingredient broken down to base materials.

The Full Recipe Tree

Stasis Device requires:

  • 1x Quantum Processor
  • 1x Cryogenic Chamber
  • 1x Iridesite

Quantum Processor

Ingredient Requires
Circuit Board 1x Heat Capacitor + 1x Poly Fibre
Superconductor 1x Semiconductor + 1x Enriched Carbon

Breaking that down:

Component Base Ingredients
Heat Capacitor 100x Frost Crystal + 200x Solanium
Poly Fibre 100x Cactus Flesh + 200x Star Bulb
Semiconductor 1x Thermic Condensate + 1x Nitrogen Salt
Thermic Condensate 250x Sulphurine + 50x Condensed Carbon
Nitrogen Salt 250x Nitrogen + 50x Condensed Carbon
Enriched Carbon 250x Radon + 50x Condensed Carbon

Cryogenic Chamber

Ingredient Requires
Living Glass 1x Lubricant + 5x Glass
Cryo-pump 1x HoT Ice + 1x Thermic Condensate

Breaking that down:

Component Base Ingredients
Lubricant 50x Faecium + 400x Gamma Root
Glass 40x Frost Crystal each (5x Glass = 200x Frost Crystal)
HoT Ice 1x Enriched Carbon + 1x Nitrogen Salt
Thermic Condensate 250x Sulphurine + 50x Condensed Carbon

Iridesite

Alloy Base Ingredients
Aronium 50x Paraffinium + 50x Ionised Cobalt
Magno-gold 50x Phosphorus + 50x Ionised Cobalt
Grantine 50x Dioxite + 50x Ionised Cobalt

What You Actually Need to Farm

Gas Extractor Farm

Gas Approximate Total Needed
Sulphurine 500x+
Radon 500x+
Nitrogen 500x+
Condensed Carbon 300x+

Same gas setup as the Fusion Ignitor. Build Gas Extractors on planets with Sulphurine (volcanic/hot), Radon (radioactive), and Nitrogen (frozen). An Electromagnetic Generator keeps them running without fuel.

Plant Farm (Biodomes or Hydroponics)

Plant Total Needed Native Planet
Gamma Root 400x Irradiated
Frost Crystal 300x Frozen
Cactus Flesh 100x Desert
Star Bulb 200x Lush
Solanium 200x Fiery/toxic
Faecium 50x Any (creature byproduct)

Gamma Root at 400x is the main farm commitment here. It grows on irradiated planets natively, or in Biodomes anywhere. Frost Crystal at 300x (100 for Heat Capacitor, 200 for Glass) is the second biggest ask. If you already have frozen planet crops running, most of this is covered.

Faecium is easy: creatures drop it on almost any planet, and you only need 50x per craft.

Planet Mining

Material Source
Paraffinium Lush planet surface
Phosphorus Fiery/volcanic planet surface
Dioxite Frozen planet surface
Ionised Cobalt Underground caves (150x total)

Paraffinium, Phosphorus, and Dioxite all come from common planet types. Grab bulk stacks when you’re visiting those systems, or mine them near your base if your home planet has the right biome.

Where to Get the Blueprint

Same as the Fusion Ignitor:

  1. Synthesis Lab on the Space Anomaly — buy blueprints with Nanites. Get all the sub-component blueprints at the same time: Cryogenic Chamber, Quantum Processor, Living Glass, Cryo-pump, Iridesite, and the three alloys.
  2. Planetary Manufacturing Facilities — raid them for blueprint drops.

Crafting Order

Start from base materials and work up:

  1. Set up gas extractors for Sulphurine, Radon, and Nitrogen
  2. Plant Gamma Root, Frost Crystal, Cactus Flesh, Star Bulb, and Solanium
  3. Mine Paraffinium, Phosphorus, Dioxite, and Ionised Cobalt
  4. Craft the three alloys (Aronium, Magno-gold, Grantine) to make Iridesite
  5. Refine gases into Thermic Condensate, Enriched Carbon, and Nitrogen Salt
  6. Craft Semiconductor, then Superconductor and HoT Ice
  7. Craft Lubricant and Glass from farm products, combine into Living Glass
  8. Combine Living Glass and Cryo-pump into Cryogenic Chamber
  9. Craft Circuit Board and combine with Superconductor into Quantum Processor
  10. Assemble Stasis Device

The longest wait is the plant farms. Once Gamma Root and Frost Crystal are harvested, everything else assembles quickly.
