Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl offers many engaging NPC interactions, often leading to small quests. One such unique encounter is with Lyonchyk Sprat in Rookie Village. His quest involves delivering a joke to other stalkers, potentially gaining him acceptance within their group. This interaction is easily missed, so here's a guide:
Completing Lyonchyk Sprat's Joke Quest in Rookie Village
Find Lyonchyk Sprat in Rookie Village (Cordon region). He'll initiate contact upon your arrival near the village center, unsuccessfully attempting a joke.
He'll then ask for your help delivering a joke to stalkers around a bonfire to make friends. Accepting begins the quest.
Delivering the Joke
Lyonchyk instructs you to climb into a nearby house's attic and wait for his signal. A ladder is visible beside the bonfire. Reach the attic to proceed.
You'll be presented with several joke options; each yields a different audience reaction. However, selecting any option results in a successful joke delivery and quest completion.
Reward
After the interaction, return to Lyonchyk Sprat at his original location. He'll express gratitude for your assistance, rewarding you with 900 coupons.
Failure occurs if you don't choose a joke prompt and let Lyonchyk attempt it alone. He'll flee, upset, and blame you.
