There is a unique armor at Malachite fairly easy to get early game. Goto the back of the building being used as shelter to get on the pipes that reach over to the other building. You will have to make giant leaps while throwing bolts at anomalies along the way. You climb up the building and go through all the scafolding and a unique version of the Bulat armor is there. Its a blue version called PSZ-9I Falcon. It has PSI protection compared to the Bulat but has 1 less artifact slot (upgrades can account for it), but the biggest downside compared to Bulat is that it doesn't have the camel pack upgrade for higher stamina regen.
Partner is attainable after the SIRCAA mission, head to Zalyissia and defend it against Monolith, then take a side quest from Warlock to retrieve a gun, retrieve the gun and just never give it back. be careful about talking to him with it in your inventory until after the other quests to defend Zalyissia
If you equip weird water and get to much weight in your inventory, it makes you act like you drank a bottle of vodka. It can make not dying harder since your screen is all wavy when you try to aim with your rifle.
I was looking EVERYWHERE to try and figure out the wandering lights anomaly, and the lights never fuckin spawned, had no idea it was even supposed to look like that lol. I'm enjoying this game but stuff like that, all the missions glitching, really kills the flow and enjoyment
Labyrinth IV is you get for not shooting the doctor, when you escape to his basement you get to go through a secret tunnel and youll find the gun in his vault.
@xLunarGaming yess choose not to shot the doctor, and there will be a secert tunnel in the basement behind a rag on the wall the gun is on the table I think.
Man, i know this game is long, but damn. I haven't even been in prypiat yet and i'm so close to get to that part of the map. This game takes forever and i love it!!!
Yeah these video folk will be just speed running campain mission.. with the few side quests.... 0ersonally i do all side quests before my story missions.
Wierd Water stats: -15 Radiation (which is A LOT, maximum radiation artifacts emmit is 0,5) +45 weight limit makes you permanently drunk (no seriously it makes you drunk when you have it equipped)
I don't know if you've found this handgun or not but I stumbled across it. The APSB - silent special forces pistol. Location - Stechanka - on the boarder between Duga and Chem Plant. There's a bunch of portals to jump through. Stash location PDA among them. The portal I jumped through was floating above a brick "building" where only some of the walls were left. There's 2 blood suckers close by so caution is advised. Anyway, if you have it already, never mind this guide ☺️☺️
this guide on getting the Gauss Gun, Texan, X7 Armor, Weird Water, and the Bulwark Exosuit is a goldmine for STALKER 2 players! Unique gear like this not only enhances gameplay but makes exploring the Zone so much more rewarding. I also make videos about STALKER 2 and was completely amazed by what happens when you throw a grenade into an anomaly - the Zone is full of surprises!"
Okay I’m a simple man but what’s the best suit, best gun, best artifact u can find an so forth ? Love the videos. First time here. There’s just so much content lol
@@HNTR308 Wrong, Diamond Exoskeleton, it gets 3 bars of all resistance types, max radiation resistance, and max physical resistance. 4 slots of lead containers for your artifacts, and weighs half of the bonus carry capacity it gives you which means that when you wear it it doesn't just weigh nothing it gives you more, has the option for bonus sprint recovery as well, and I'm 50% sure it increases jump height. Other than that the best nonunique weapons I have found are the Kharod assault rifle with a 4x optic, grenade launcher, and suppressor. Saiga shotgun for large mutants, it has an extended mag that I have found, and a 2x optic so it has some range if you use slugs in a pinch. And then the APSB pistol for small targets, can get a 1x optic and a suppressor. You can use the Rhino revolver instead if you want but that is meant for hunting mutants and trust me the Saiga has it beat in that regard so just stick with the APSB.
Objectively those are the best from everything I have seen, but realistically. Run whatever the fuck you want, I have all of that gear yet I run the Seva-1 suit because I think it looks cool and reminds me of the old games. Also run the Gauss rifle even though it's not that good because it has horrible ammoefficiencyy, but it's awesome so I use it anyway. Run what you want, and if what you want is the best equipment look at my previous comment.
Since I don’t think this game is coming to PS5, I would have to play this on my gaming laptop. With that being said, how demanding is this game to run on PC, and if there is an answer to this, what other game does this game match in terms of PC requirements to run well on PC?
Hey, short question that someone can answer for me. Does the main quest take you through all the areas, almost as a common thread? Should you go to areas independently without quets? For example, I have the problem that in the bandit base (i.e. in the previous one there was always the bandit faction boss) there is no one in the garbage dump
It's near the swamps on the upper right after wading through loads of water, you go past an easter egg from Harry Potter with a car stuck in a tree and you will find it on a little island in a duffle bag by a tree and some anomalies.
i got that in the mission where you kill faust. i had to go back to a save where i didnt have it, play through the mission while constantly saving and reloading saves everytime i got it. i had to reload probably 20 times but once i finished the mission i didnt get it anymore.
You have to reload to a previous point. It's extremely irritating. I did some testing in god mode, and it seems that there is about a 10% chance to get permanently afflicted with the psy effect from any psy source. A 90% chance if you dont kill the source and leave the area, which is what happens in the first Faust fight because he is unkillable and runs.
@NvvYvvSvv yup, that's where I was, I just soldiered thru, thinking it would end... Thanks for your research, wish they would put that in the description of the item. Do you think it has a connection with the weird pot? I stated a new save, thinking that one was toast, and spawned in all the stuff I had and got a psi onslaught in the start town.
Welcome to the Zone STALKER. The zone is about decisions friend and all discissions have consequences.. Pick fights or run (Fighting has a cost..not just your life) Oh look a lot of "Loot" well pick what you can carry or take it all but have to walk slowly back to the nearest HUB (I have walked for 1.3 hours IRL time over max weight just because i WANTED the money.. choices) Also, pick up ALL the medical loot and i mean ALL you only need 10 of each on you (thats being generous) and stop face tanking enemies and go slow, less damage taken = less spent on repairs and more profit.
Repair early and fairly often, upgrade your items and make sure to increase their wear resistance. Also some times it's better to run and save the ammo, meds, and potential damage to your gear than trying to fight.
ooof the game looks so clunky with a controller. that's not how you advertise the game. but they had to do it, daddy microsoft wanted the game consolized
Only issue I have really is the mutants are fucking bullet sponges anywhere between 60-90 bullets to take bloodsucker or anything down and the ai respawn is annoying as fuck Kill 2 blood suckers in army warehouse loot the place then another 2 blood suckers just spawn kill them neary out of bullets then fucking 8 bandits spawn then once I took care of that blood suckers spawned said fuck this I’m out Hopefully the hot fix or update fixes this stuff Only issue with the game 😊
@@Cenot4ph hopefully they fix the ai.2 life most important aspect that’s needs fixing first and on co sole the stock diff adding option for dead zone cause I swear the horiztal stick zone is so off you aim and the keeps going ether left or right
Yeah the spawn system and ai is a bit messed up currently. Early game I recommend getting a spas or cracker shotgun and decking them out for the mutants. Expanding ammo works better on mutants too I think. Shotguns help a ton early on. And use any rifle you can scrape together and headshot the other people to make them less spongy for you. As soon as you can find one, get a Rhino revolver. Works wonders on all mutants and enemies. Still will take a good chunk of rounds to kill a pseudogiant with it (I've killed about six with it so far), but it is way easier and cheaper than dumping allll your ammo on a couple mutants. Usually takes somewhere between six to twelve rounds to kill a single bloodsucker. Not a great advantage but it saves a looot of ammo for other calibers. And beats upwards of 150 rounds of 556 for a single bloodsucker. Just reaching pripyat here in like 5 mintues. rhino is still my go to mutant gun, where as the M14 (forgot its ingame name) works well on bad guys in good armor, and mutants alike but you can get a rhino sooner. pair the m14/rhino with any random gun you like using that you can land headshots or magdump humans with and it got me this far. As for armor I used the Falchion armor fully decked out up until Yaniv. To gain a crapload of money, loot and explore everywhere, collect everything to sell that you can. Also sell/buy/repair with any of the factions you are friendly with and did missions for. Say the freedom over in rostok. Did stuff til their icons all became green (friendly status) and make bank doing transactions with them. Sorry for the long read. Hope it helps you and anyone else.
You can 2-3 shot a blood sucker with 7.62 BS. After 20 hours or i've worked out using the better ammos does indeed = more dakka dakka. So ye, use the top-tier ammo in a mutant hunting gun and maybe have standard ammo for a human hunting gun and you will notice a night and day difference.
@ oh I’m stuck on 5.45 still doing g everything I can in the lesser zone but managed to pull good gear out of army warehouse and getting me ready for that area and getting everything I need to bring over and place in storage at garbage and more money
The more I play the more I realize. The mods are gonna make this game a 10/10 easily
Nahhh...its a lot in game too need be fixed before mods even works on this beta state...it will be long process...
A faction warfare mod with management of the faction will be infinit replayability ! :)

Just a heads up, if you need to break a window from a distance, save your ammo and use a bolt. The overhand throw is strong enough to break glass
