Let’s look deeper into how to get rid of the radiation status effect in Starfield.
What is the Radiation Status Effect in Starfield?
The Radiation status effect in Starfield is an environmental status you can pick up from being in radiated zones. Often, you can pick up Radiation from being on planets with high radiation levels. One such planet is one we know well: Earth. There are loads of other planets that can be highly radiated as well, so beware of them.
The Radiation status effect changes your ability to carry your maximum weight capacity. Due to swelling, every item you have equipped has increased carry weight. With an effect like that, Radiation isn’t something you want to keep for more time than you absolutely must. Getting rid of the Radiation status effect as soon as you get it can definitely increase the quality of your Starfield gameplay.
