Discover the Elusive Weird Flower Artifact in Stalker 2
The Poppy Field in Stalker 2 holds more than just a side quest; it conceals the enigmatic Weird Flower Artifact. This guide details its location and usage.
Locating the Weird Flower
The Weird Flower is nestled in the northern part of the Poppy Field, beyond the central L-shaped structure. Be warned: navigating the field requires ample Non-Stop Energy Drinks to combat the debilitating drowsiness and hallucinations. Keep moving until you spot a small, distinctive blue flower on the ground.
Utilizing the Weird Flower
Equip the Weird Flower in an available Artifact slot above your Quick Access menu. The number of slots depends on your gear; beginners typically have only one.
The Weird Flower provides a temporary stealth advantage, but only after sleeping while wearing it. A convenient bed for this purpose is located in a side room at the Trader's in the Lesser Zone. Note that sleeping may advance the in-game time significantly.
The Weird Flower's practical value is somewhat limited due to the scarcity of sleeping locations. Its stealth bonus may not appeal to all playstyles. Selling it to a trader is a viable option.
Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is available now on Xbox and PC.
