Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl's SEVA-V Armor: A Free Early-Game Powerhouse
Stalker 2 offers a variety of armor suits to enhance player survivability within The Zone's hazardous environment. The SEVA-V suit, a highly valuable member of the SEVA series, stands out as a free, early-game acquisition offering superior PSI protection. This guide details how to obtain this crucial piece of equipment.
Locating the SEVA-V Suit
The SEVA-V suit is located at the Scientist Helicopter Point of Interest (POI) in Stalker 2's Rostok region. This POI is situated southwest of the Rostok base, marked by a crashed helicopter within an Electro anomaly field and a large, rusty crane. Reaching the suit requires a short climb.
Accessing the Crane and the Suit
Upon entering the Scientist Helicopter POI, you'll see the crashed helicopter and a ladder leading up the crane. Before ascending, use an artifact detector to retrieve an Electro-type artifact from the anomalous field near the helicopter – this will prove beneficial.
Climb the crane's ladder. Once at the top, traverse the crane to the operator's cabin on the left. Carefully jump the gap to the cabin's interior. Inside, you'll find a bag containing valuable supplies and the SEVA-V armor. Retrace your steps to descend.
SEVA-V Suit Stats and Uses
The SEVA-V suit, upgradable by the Rostok base technician Screw, boasts high radiation protection and respectable PSI protection. It features four artifact slots. If you've already secured superior armor, selling the SEVA-V suit can yield a substantial amount of in-game currency.
