Stalker 2: A Comprehensive Guide to Artifact Farming and Locations
In Stalker 2, acquiring artifacts with specific stat bonuses to enhance your gameplay is crucial. However, each artifact is tied to a particular elemental anomaly, meaning targeted farming is necessary. This guide simplifies the process by categorizing artifacts by their associated anomaly type.
All Artifacts in Stalker 2 and Their Locations
Stalker 2 boasts over 75 artifacts of varying rarity (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary/Mythical). While some are obtained through quests, most require farming specific anomalous zones.
(Note: Due to the extensive length of the original artifact list, a complete reproduction here would be impractical. The following will illustrate the format and provide examples. A complete, searchable list could be generated by a separate script or tool.)

Tips for Efficient Artifact Farming:
- Targeted Anomaly Farming: Focus on the specific anomaly type associated with the desired artifact.
- Save-Scouting: Utilize quick saves before entering an anomaly zone. If the artifact isn't found, reload the save.
- Enhanced Detectors: Employ superior artifact detectors like the Veles or Bear to increase spawn rates.
