Discover Secrets of the Garbage Trader Revealed in Stalker 2

Navigating the Garbage Zone in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl

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

Stalker 2 Garbage Trader Locations

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

Following this, the game will direct you to the Slag Heap, located north of the laboratory. However, you can explore it earlier if desired. The Slag Heap houses two key traders:

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

• Huron: Found by heading left and entering the open door on your right, Huron specializes in weapons and gear. His room also serves as your stash location, 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 inevitably encounter him as he's crucial for progressing the main questline with Diode.

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