Trader of Garbage Unearthed in Stalker 2

Navigating the Garbage Zone in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl

Reaching the Garbage zone in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl requires progressing through the main storyline. While you can explore the area earlier, the main quest will eventually lead you to the Slag Heap, a key hub within the Garbage zone. This typically happens after completing the "Answers Come at a Price" quest, following visits to the Detention Center and Laboratory, and a meeting with Scar. The Slag Heap is located north of the laboratory.

Two traders operate within the Slag Heap:

• Boozer: Located at the entrance, Boozer runs a bar and offers food and drinks. He's also a convenient vendor for selling various items.

• Huron: Found to the left and then through 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 also initiate a side quest.

While not a trader, a Tech resides at the back of the left corridor in the Slag Heap. You'll encounter him while progressing the main quest, as you'll need to speak with Diode.

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