The poisonous creatures and plants that drop this Common crafting material, plus the recipes that need it.

Toxic Sacks are a Common crafting material in Enshrouded 1.0, pulled from the poisonous wildlife of the Veilwater Basin. The in-game description reads: “A large gland filled with a lethal substance. Handle it with care!” The material stacks up to 250, so you can carry plenty before a trip back to your base.

Quick answer: Travel to the Veilwater Basin and kill a Venomous Stinger. Each one drops 1 Toxic Sack, alongside 2 Venom Stingers and 2 to 3 Critter Parts.


Where Toxic Sacks drop in the Veilwater Basin

You can obtain Toxic Sacks from three sources in the Veilwater Basin. Large, scorpion-like Venomous Stingers are the dependable option, yielding one sack per kill. Vicious Vines and the region’s Shroud spitter plants also yield one each.

Toxic Sack is the stronger, higher-level counterpart to Poison Sack. In earlier regions, the same enemy types yield Poison Sacks; head to the Veilwater Basin when you need the upgraded material.


How to farm Toxic Sacks

Travel to the Veilwater Basin, where the poisonous creatures and plants that carry Toxic Sacks live.
Find a Venomous Stinger and kill it. These are the big scorpion-like critters moving through the region.

After the creature dies, its Toxic Sack, Venom Stinger, and Critter Parts appear in your pickup list. Gather the drops before you continue.
Defeat one more Venomous Stinger and repeat the steps. While clearing the area, look to the Veilwater Basin’s Vicious Vines and Shroud spitter plants as additional sources of Toxic Sacks.
