Stalker 2: A Comprehensive Guide to Artifact Farming Locations
Finding specific artifacts with desirable stat bonuses in Stalker 2 can be a time-consuming endeavor. This guide simplifies the process by categorizing artifacts based on their associated anomalous zones. With over 75 artifacts of varying rarity (Common, Uncommon, Rare, and Legendary/Mythical), efficient farming is key. While some are obtained through quests, most require targeted exploration of specific anomaly types.
