DAB is a single-step chemical drug made at the Oxy Lab. Consumed via a bong.

Overview

  • Type: Collect chemicals → cook → sell
  • Final product: dab
  • Best sell: $400 cash (Dollar Pills)

Requirements

What Why you need it Where
Skill-check minigame (lv1) Every process step runs a skill check. Miss it and the craft doesn't complete — you keep the inputs, you lose the time. At the lab
burnerphone Only if you want to sell to NPCs on the street with /startsell. The static dealer buys without it. —
A vehicle Chemical Lab (north-east desert) to the Oxy Lab (city) to Dollar Pills (Grapeseed). Any car — the route is the real cost

The lv1–lv5 tag on each recipe is minigame difficulty, not a character level you have to grind first — lv1 is a single easy skill check, while lv5 stacks an easy, a medium and two hard ones. A brand new character can start this chain today; what actually gates you is travel time and the police.

What You Get & Where to Sell

Product Spawn code Sell price
DAB dab $400 cash (Dollar Pills)

Two Ways to Sell

1. Static dealer — fixed price, clean money. Drive to Dollar Pills 591.1, 2744.9, 42.0 and sell dab for $400 cash. The price never moves, there is no minigame, and the sale itself does not generate a police alert. This is the reliable route.

2. Street selling — /startsell, dirty money. Carry a burnerphone, run /startsell, and NPC customers walk up to you. Each sale is 1–3 units at a random $200–$400, paid in markedbills — the drug pack's dirty currency. That is not the same black_money the robbery pack pays out, so the two launder separately. /stopsell ends the session.

Street selling is slower per unit, but it is the only way to generate markedbills:

  • Some customers refuse the sale and walk off.
  • Some try to rob you instead of paying.
  • A sale can alert police and sheriff — dispatch drops a blip on you that stays live for about a minute, so move on after a run of sales.
  • Selling works anywhere on the map, not just inside a marked zone, so pick somewhere quiet.

💰 Cost vs Reward

Amount
Setup (one-time) $0 for the craft — a bong and lighter only if you plan to use it
Cost per run $0 — chemicals ×5 are collected free
Time per run ≈ 30s of collecting and cooking, plus the drive
Sell price $400 cash at Dollar Pills
Profit per unit $400 — pure profit on the sell side

Using It — Effects, Addiction & Overdose

Every drug in the pack is also usable, and that side of it matters if you are roleplaying a user rather than a cook:

  • Using dab restores health and armour, cuts stress, and buffs run speed, with a screen effect and a changed walk style while it lasts.
  • Each use adds addiction and tolerance. As those climb you start losing health, and you risk passing out or vomiting at the worst possible moment.
  • Overdose triggers at 10 uses of the same drug, or 5 uses across mixed drugs.
  • Cures are sold at the Corner Store: acamprosate $500 (light detox), lofexidine $3,000 (heavy detox), and antidote $3,000 for an overdose.
  • Police carry a drugtestkit. Whatever you took stays in your blood for about 5 minutes after use — long enough to fail a roadside test.

Common Mistakes

  • Trying to use dab without a bong. It is a bong item — no bong, no effect.
  • Making a special trip. The Oxy Lab also cooks Oxycodone, Opium and LSD — plan one visit, cook several chains.

Tips

  • Consumed via bong (needs bong + lighter to use).

FAQ

How much does DAB sell for?

$400 clean cash at Dollar Pills (591.1, 2744.9, 42.0), the same fixed price as oxycodone, angel dust, x-pills and fentanyl pills.

Where is the DAB lab?

The Oxy Lab at 880.1, -1134.1, 25.8 — the shared hub that also handles opium, oxycodone and LSD.

How do you use DAB?

It is consumed through a bong, so you need a bong plus a lighter in your inventory. Without both, the item does nothing.

Is DAB better than Oxycodone?

They are identical on paper — both take chemicals ×5, both are a 15-second lv1 cook, both sell for $400, and both cook at the Oxy Lab. Pick whichever craft point you are standing closest to.
