The Texan, a unique RAM shotgun with a preinstalled holo sight and higher accuracy. Best gun I've found bar none. 14 mag that loads two at a time, making it better at sustained engagement than any other shotgun. To get it, all you need to do is head northwest to the area just below Prypiat, Jupiter. The northeast corner of Jupiter just below the south entrance of Prypiat has an Abandoned Science Center area, and inside the open science bunker the shotgun is just lying on a table. Perfect for cleaning up the pseudogiant just outside.
There's also a unique Grom-15 near the center of Cooling Towers, in a deep pit in the ground next to some fire anomalies. Perfect if you want a grenade launcher and high firepower. The outside of the fire whirl tower has a scaffold with a portal orb that lets you teleport to the top and gives you a free Dnipro AR, too - sadly there's no unique for the Dnipro, nor for the NATO equivalent Kharod (which can attach the NATO grenade launcher, does a bit less damage though.) Edit: You did have the Dnipro above the tower. I found mine in perfect condition though. Could be a bug if yours was damaged.
South of Yaniv settlement there's a science bunker that has the Diamond Exoskeleton on top. Getting up there is insanely difficult (you have to maneuver some object you can jump up somehow), but it's worth it if you can scrape up the coupons to upgrade that monster. Four lead containers out of five total artifacts, it doesn't need a blueprint to get the sprint upgrade as far as I can tell, and it provides a massive 16 carry weight. It's basically full power armor. Most importantly? You can get it without being able to enter Prypiat.
My favorite weapon is from the older games and the gamma mod for Stalker Anomaly, I like the Sig SG 550 and a the MP5SD. Both are really solid weapons in Stalker GAMMA
CORRECTIONS: -Do not attach a GP25 to the Drowned. It comes with one preinstalled, but it is bugged and will let you attach another... That you can never remove. That's just a waste. -The Predator is literally an upgraded M860 Cracker. -Much better than the SEVA-D early on is the SEVA-V. You can get that from the crashed science helicopter west of Rostok. Climb up the nearby ladder and you can get it inside the crane control room. The southwest corner of the swamp also has its aramid upgrade. Forgot where the rest were.
U can run to Yantar and get the SEVA-I(i) in the building were the monolith totem is(just jump from the pipes).....just run from the bloodsuckers and boom!(best SEVA)
@rhoaius9120 Eh. Seva-V is superior because Rostok's tech can fully upgrade its lead containers without messing with blueprints. Seva-I is mid without more upgrades than you can get. Both are still better than the Seva-D, which sucks simply because Duty are cheapskates and use low-cost, low-grade materials. (That's literally the reason given by the lore... They're cheap on purpose) If you're willing to exploit physics and have maybe a hundred k, the answer is Diamond Exo. No contest. The Spark Base south of Yaniv (basically just the dead center of Yaniv region) has one you are SUPPOSED to only get late in the main story. But if you can push enough barrels or boxes there to movement cheat your way to the top, it's free and the damn thing isn't even guarded. Then at minimum you upgrade Sprinting at Yaniv, and if you have spare cash you get a couple lead pockets for any Compasses or Hypercubes. Weird artifacts are more situational and have hidden downsides.
@@FelisImpurrator seva-I is superior because once upgraded it's an absolute tank that outclasses the V, takes 10 min to go grab the 2 blue prints for it, not even debatable.
@seanowens3153 Wait. One is in northwest Duga, but where is the other and which upgrade was that again? I honestly didn't bother because the Seva-I I got first was the one in Yantar and it just isn't worth it without the lead pocket BP, unless you already have a liquid rock to counter another artifact.
Once ypu can get it the M701 sniper is utterly ridiculous, the .308 hits like a truck. I like the riemann from deluxe edition, drowned is arguably one of the best rifles around, the saiga 12 is my new shotgun.
Vs vintar is by far the best gun I've seen so far. Makes all the guns you mentioned look like trash. I'm one shotting most humans from long range to close range.
Just gonna throw it out there.. spitter lynx combo can be handy. (Spitter from Slag heap quest where they double cross you. Lynx from quest on wild island)
You gotta slow down and listen. He said "this might not be there unless you do the connected quest. I'm not sure, so lmk down in the comments if you know." 🤔. And I agree, I hate it when they dont actually show where on the map.
The loss for sprint with the exosuits aren't worth the trouble. Stick with mobility, especially when you're going against mutants. I've been using the Shah's Mate for about half the game already. A worthy gun for any stalker. But for shotguns, I wouldn't go for the pump action unless it has a magazine mod. Reloading one bullet at a time can be a death sentence, especially when you're fighting the bloodsuckers.
@@asthyz3004I don’t think that’s an exo suit lol (don’t quote me) but you can get a diamond exo like half way through the game if you venture off haven’t beat the game but haven’t found a better exo and I can sprint in it after the upgrade
You can get a SIVA-V suit not far from the Rostok safe zone just by exiting west within the train yard. On top of some radioactive scaffolding, there’s the suit after scaling and climbing some ladders
The Drowned doesn’t jam and does more damage. The AK from the water tower is weaker than a base AK. The drowned basically means you never have to repair in the mid game just swap suits maybe repair your shotgun/smg.
@ my bad. It says its stats aren’t affected by durability which I misread as it isn’t affected at all by durability.i haven’t managed to get mine below 50% yet
I found a Grom-S14 with grenade launcher & a Mark I EMR at the same location, where the anomaly revive the corpses + a poltergeist on a pipe. Far West on the garbage area.
Wreck from Yaniv sells those, and sometimes the traders in Cement factory or the unmarked trader in Red Forest also has them, but you gotta do a quest or something for him to unlock his wares
There’s an AK scope on the crane stash at garbage heap that I think is always there. You can eventually find enemies with attachments on some weapons I got a rifle silencer off of Rostock bartender radiant quest
Its just dnipro, not d.n.i. pro, most likely named after dnieper river in Ukraine (Since, according to the gun's description, it's Ukrainian). Also predator is literally an upgraded M860, it has faster reload.
@@klayman2yes, Dnipro is a city on the Dnipro river. It's a correct transliteration of this river name from ukrainian, because Dnieper naming is a soviet legacy.
valiks rifle is worse in every way compared to the regular akm and just because the rifle grenades are rare doesn't make drowner a bad weapon that logic wound me up
Grenade launchers are fool traps. Even in the original trilogy they only works to make your gun look tacticool and weight more, but nothing else. Hand grenades are far more useful and absurdly common
Wait just a damn minute, the Exoskeleton only allows you to carry 8 more kg!? What the actual shit is that!? I bet it also costs about 100,000 coupons to repair at 90% durability too! I like this game but it isn't even remotely balanced! I have genuinely never been more frustrated with a game in my entire life!
Bro you put to many cut scenes in your videos and don’t even fully show how to reach these areas. I went looking for that armor suit you talked about in that zone that makes your screen blurry and I wasted all my resources trying to find a way to the “top” as you claimed. Stop doing that.
Your opening line is a bit of a fabrication "stalker 2 is hard" yeah if you play it on the hardest setting they literally nerfed it and telling people to cheat the game with pass codes you're what is wrong with youtube video creators just to get likes! UPDATE your title too * (S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Tips, Tricks & cheat)
They're identical to the other guns, the only difference is you find them slightly early. And you can't upgrade them and, in some cases, even buy ammo until you at least get to some of the later zones
@@BNRmattdude what? I have the ultimate edition and some of weapons are definitely better than their standard variants. You can also upgrade them.

it doesn’t jam and has higher damage stats according to game8 which has a guns list
Haha love how ur talking about larger mags good for not reloading while your shooting 3 bullets and reloading 4 times in a row
Vs vintar is by far the best gun I've seen so far. Makes all the guns you mentioned look like trash. I'm one shotting most humans from long range to close range.

the best gun i’ve found is the gun behind streklov if you choose his ending at the end of the game when you get the x7 suit
Bro for your first weapon you cannot get it unless you do a mission and next time can you please take your time and show on the map
Can you not hear? He says the location, sounds like you rushed through so I would think you would want him to go faster with how you were rushing
@BjrnzE i love it when someone answers back, and it's not the person I was talking to 😅 . Sorry I wasn't talking to you. Please mind yours.
@@pgamestv906you could actually pay attention. Or maybe just play the game and find it yourself💀

Where did you get/buy the Suppressor/Silencer for AKM and DNIPRO? I've been looking for that for a while but no luck.
I found one in the world (I forget where, sorry) but after a while they started spawning on traders
You can buy a ACOG 4X scope or a holographic sight for the DNIPRO at the Yaniv region in Yaniv Station at wrecks shop.

The ones way later give 17 an 25. With 5 artifact slots an 4 lead container.
In Stalker universe lore, the exos were not designed to be hoarders, but bullet sponges.
For carry tons of gear you have other suits.
it would be really helpful if you slowed down a bit and show exactly what youre talking about in regards to showing locations..
As a player with 70 hours in the game you are wrong on just about everything.
What was the quest to get the first weapon of the video?
Its from one of the guys in slag heap, if you let the guy live at the end he gives you the stash location
Dnipro is the name of a river in Ukraine.
The best assault weapon is the Kharod though
