Today we bring you an explanatory guide on How to Deal with Artifact Radiation in STALKER 2 so that you can handle these objects without problems.


Artifacts in STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl grant various benefits, such as enhanced resilience to bleeding and carrying capacity, among others. Having said that, players that equip artifacts without following the necessary precautions would inevitably perish from the radiation. However, this article will go into further detail on how to handle artifact radiation in STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl.

The majority of players won't be prepared to handle radiation levels when they initially acquire an artifact, thus they might choose to keep it unequipped until they level up.

How to Deal With Artifact Radiation



Although players can try to mitigate the radiation from an equipped artifact by regularly taking anti-radiation drugs and vodka, those things won't solve the problem permanently. Rather, players of STALKER should seek out and equip artifacts that lower radiation levels, as well as armor that can withstand radiation.

Since an artifact with "radio protection" can neutralize the harmful effects of another artifact with an equivalent amount of radiation, radiation-reducing artifacts are the more straightforward approach to dealing with artifact radiation. If a STALKER Artifact has weak radiation, for instance, it will be countered by an Artifact like Slug, which has weak radio shielding.

Players should always carry an Artifact detector (such as an Echo Device) on them, even when they don't need a weapon, in order to find radiation-reducing artifacts. Artifacts with radio protection will be found by players who use these detectors frequently; they indicate when an Artifact is nearby. This is particularly the case if the fan consistently uses their detectors in close proximity to acid anomalies, as these areas produce a number of artifacts that reduce radiation.

A Slug, an Artifact with inadequate radio shielding, can be obtained during an early-game story quest in STALKER 2. If you're having trouble finding a radiation-reducing artifact in the environment, you might want to just focus on reaching that task, which takes place in the Garbage, the second region of the game.

Additionally, players can shield themselves from radiation using helmets and suits, and they can adapt to varying degrees of artifact radiation as they level up their equipment. The radio protection that some artifacts offer is complemented by the radiation protection that clothing provides. To counter a medium-radiation Artifact, for instance, players can pair an Artifact with weak radio protection with radiation-protective clothing.

Stashes are fantastic sources for improved gear in STALKER 2, so players who want to get their hands on those radiation-reducing helmets and suits should definitely go after them when they appear on the map. In addition, as fans accomplish tasks, they will get radiation-protective clothing. However, the quality of this gear is usually lower than what can be found in Stashes.
