Navigating the Garbage Zone in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl

After leaving the Lesser Zone, your journey continues into the sprawling Garbage area. Due to the significant distance from your starting base, encountering traders in this region will take some time.

Initially, your quest markers won't directly guide you to the Slag Heap hub. Progressing the main storyline is necessary to officially unlock this location. Completing the "Answers Come at a Price" quest will reveal the Slag Heap's location. This involves prior visits to the Detention Center and the Laboratory before meeting Scar.

Upon completing these steps, the game will direct you to the Slag Heap, situated north of the laboratory. However, feel free to explore this area earlier. The Slag Heap houses two key traders.

Boozer, located at the entrance, runs the bar and offers food and drinks. He also accepts a wide variety of items for sale. You can't miss him!

Huron, the second trader, is found by heading left and entering the open door on your right. He specializes in weapons and equipment. His room also serves as your stash, allowing you to store extra items. Interacting with Huron can also initiate a side quest.

While not a trader, a Tech is located at the back of the left corridor. You'll encounter him while progressing the main quest with Diode.

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