Navigating the Garbage Zone in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl

After leaving the Lesser Zone, your journey continues into the challenging Garbage area. Due to the distance from your starting base, encountering traders will take time.

Initially, your quest markers won't directly guide you to the Slag Heap hub. Progressing the main storyline is necessary; completing the "Answers Come at a Price" quest unlocks its location. This involves visiting the Detention Center and the Laboratory before meeting Scar.

The Slag Heap, situated north of the laboratory, is accessible earlier if desired. This hub features two key traders:

  • Boozer: Located at the entrance, Boozer runs the bar, selling food and drinks while accepting various items for trade. He's easy to find.

  • Huron: Found by heading left and entering the open door on your right, Huron specializes in weapons and gear. His room also serves as your stash, allowing you to store extra items. Interacting with Huron can initiate a side quest.

While not a trader, a Tech is located at the back of the left corridor. A conversation with this individual (Diode) is crucial for main quest progression.

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is available now on Xbox and PC.
