Starfield has a lot – and I mean a LOT – you can do in it. It’s no Star Citizen as far as activities or immersion, but it does provide a lot of room for the player to explore who they want to be in the ‘verse.. Which includes becoming a smuggler of illicit goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You may have, at some point in your adventuring, grabbed something highlighted as contraband. This could be drugs, alien tech, or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The problem is if you pick it up and forget you have it, and then fly to a major populated sector, you’ll end up getting pulled over by space cops and taken to space jail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you want to avoid that, there is really only one effective way to do so while still being able to smuggle contraband in Starfield: Shielded cargo holds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shielded cargo holds allow you to have a solid chance to evade a scanner’s notice (assuming you have a lot of shielded cargo space + not a lot of contraband).<\/p>\n\n\n
