A post-apocalyptic staple, the Sticky Bomb Recipe in Atomfall is a must-have if you expect to succeed against the swathes of enemies, both human and robotic. Below, you’ll find the exact location of where you can find it.
| EDITOR’S NOTE |
|---|
| There are multiple locations of the recipes in Atomfall, so depending on your playstyle, you may have already found the recipe below. This is just one location available. |
Sticky Bomb Recipe Location
The Sticky Bomb Recipe is definitely one of the recipes you should prioritize in Atomfall, as not only is it a useful weapon to have in your arsenal, but it’s also incredibly simple to find.
One click and you're done. Thank you!
In the Casterfell Woods region, you’ll come across the Garden Centre at the top right of the map. Whether this is because of the Infiltrators quest line or exploring in general, you’ll want to head behind the house opposite the Greenhouse Hut and enter the cellar at 26.9E, 90.6N.
You’ll be greeted with a dank and musty cellar, littered with debris and signs of inhabitation. Move forward and right, squeezing through the gap into someone’s living quarters. There are letters everywhere (part of the Infiltrators lead) and a map on the wall, exactly the same as yours in the pause menu.
Most importantly, the Sticky Bomb Recipe is sat in plain sight, on top of a wooden barrel. Hard to miss for anyone that’s there, to be truthful.
Sticky Bomb Recipe Ingredients and Effects
Now you have the Sticky Bomb Recipe, you’ll be free to craft it whenever you like/need to, as long as you have the required ingredients to do so. To craft it, you’ll need:
- Gunpowder – 3/3
- Glue – 6/6
- Scrap – 4/4
Once crafted, you’ll have another weapon to add to your inventory, one that is incredibly useful in the right situation – a situation where you require an explosion. There are so many more recipes available to find in the game beyond the Sticky Bomb, including the Nail Bomb, Combat Stim, and Strange Tonic, as well as many more that’ll help you traverse the environment and survive the whole ordeal.
