In *Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl*, the variety of armor suits significantly boosts your chances of surviving the perilous threats of The Zone. Among these, the SEVA-V suit stands out as a top-tier option within the SEVA series, and the best part is, you can acquire it for free. Available early in the game, the SEVA-V suit is particularly prized for its high PSI protection, making it an essential early-game acquisition. Let's dive into how you can secure the SEVA-V suit in *Stalker 2*.
How to Get the SEVA-V Suit Armor in Stalker 2
To obtain the SEVA-V suit, head to the Scientist Helicopter location within the Rostok region. This spot is southwest of the Rostok base, marked by a large field with a crashed helicopter, surrounded by an Electro anomaly and a towering rusted crane. To reach the coveted SEVA-V suit, you'll need to climb this crane.
Entering the Scientist Helicopter POI & Climbing the Crane
Upon reaching the Scientist Helicopter location, you'll immediately see the crashed chopper to your right, enveloped by an Electro anomaly field. To your left, a ladder leads up the rusted crane. Before ascending, equip your artifact detector and navigate the Electro anomaly field to collect an Electro-type artifact.
With the artifact secured, proceed to climb the crane. Once atop, turn right and walk along the crane until you approach the operator's cabin on your left.
Grabbing the SEVA-V Suit & Its Stats
At the operator's cabin, carefully jump across the gap and search inside to find a bag containing valuable consumables and the SEVA-V suit of armor. After claiming your prize, use the same path to descend.
For enhancements, visit the technician Screw at the Rostok base. The SEVA-V suit can be upgraded to accommodate up to four artifacts, offering excellent radiation protection and commendable PSI protection. If you already possess superior armor and don't intend to use the SEVA-V suit, consider selling it for a handsome sum of coupons.
