How To Find the Trader in Garbage 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. Given the distance from your starting base, encountering traders in this region takes time.

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

However, you can explore the Slag Heap (north of the laboratory) earlier. This hub features two valuable traders.

Boozer, located at the entrance, runs the bar, selling food and drinks while accepting various trade goods. He's hard to miss.

Huron, found by heading left and entering the right-hand door, specializes in weapons and gear. His room also houses your stash. Interacting with him can initiate a side quest.

While not a trader, a Tech is located at the back of the left corridor. You'll encounter him while speaking with Diode for the main quest.

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