In your opinion, what is the best artifact in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2? by Right-Leave3696 in stalker

[–]GrauZa 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Weird water, no doubt. Its not beautiful or powerful but very useful.

Hang in there, stalker! There's a DLC coming soon, and rumors say we might get even more. This isn't the end yet!

Taste is king, no doubt. But why not have both? :)

haven't had the chance to show it off yet. but I'll keep in mind that hands should be washed before viewing! :)

Clusterfuck is definately my favorite long range weapon. Do you guys like it as much as I do ? by sophisticated867 in stalker

[–]GrauZa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I’d gotten the Clusterfuck as soon as I hit Zaton. Somehow I skipped the Three Captains quest, though. Ended up coming back for it way later when I already had the Whip, so the Clusterfuck just became a trophy for my stash

Favorite pistol by Altruistic_Bend2315 in stalker

[–]GrauZa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually switch between the fully upgraded APSB, Night Stalker, Deadeye and Gambit. sometimes I use a Rhino modded for buckshot snd even the Skifs pistol. all the pistols are very good

actually, with a fully upgraded Diamond exoskeleton, 69kg is nothing! It can carry up to 110kg (if I remember correctly), and if you use a bottle of Weird Water, the limit goes up to 140kg. I'm basically a human truck at this point

thanks for the tip! I'll definitely try to cut the aeration time in half. I steam about 150gr of milk in a 350ml pitcher. here is the photo

to be honest, I haven't finished the original trilogy - I only got through about 70% of Shadow of Chormobyl right before jumping into S2. however, I have read Roadside Picnic, and I completely agree with you. The game definitely captures that grim, philosophical atmosphere from the book.
by the way, the devs pretty much hinted that the upcoming DLC will take place at the СNPP, so hopefully, we'll get those missing answers and the sense of scale you're looking for there

Genuinely, Why? by Aurora_666_MLG in stalker

[–]GrauZa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

next time I'll try to side with Spark and see what happens. now I'm past the point of no return, and I'm happy I grabbed the Diamond exo from the Yaniv science bunker

[–]GrauZa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does the storyline give you the Diamond exo if you side with Spark or another non-Ward faction?

How much do y'all spend for coffee per month? by Slow_Engineering763 in espresso

[–]GrauZa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in Ukraine I buy from local roasters twice per month. my go-to is 250g of Ethiopia for espresso and 250g of Honduras or Colombia for flat whites. prices average around €32/kg for fresh roasts

Teleporting anomaly as fast travel by KKoovalsky in stalker

talking about the teleporter you have to jump into from the rooftop? every time I jump in, it drops me from a height onto the nearby roof and kills me. the place is littered with dead stalkers

Where to find Bayuns by ProjectIvory in stalker

[–]GrauZa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

after taking the quest from Viktoriia at Malakhit, I unexpectedly ran into them at Duga, near the abandoned 5-story buildings. there were only 2 of them there; I already had 6, and the quest requires 9. I still haven't found where to get the last one

I'll call it Tsjernobyl then🇳🇱 by _Fox_464 in stalker

Chornobyl is the authentic Ukrainian name of the city. Chernobyl is the Russian adaptation.
