Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl offers diverse armor suits to enhance survival against The Zone's dangers. Among the SEVA series, the SEVA-V stands out as a valuable free-to-acquire suit available early in gameplay – perfect for players seeking strong PSI protection. Here's how to obtain the SEVA-V armor in Stalker 2.
SEVA-V Suit Location Guide
The SEVA-V armor awaits at the Scientist Helicopter crash site southwest of Rostok base. This electro-anomaly filled field features a destroyed chopper and towering rusted crane – your destination lies atop this structure. Be prepared for some climbing.
Navigating the Crash Site & Crane Ascent
Upon arrival, you'll see the wrecked helicopter enveloped in electro anomalies to your right, with the crane's access ladder on the left. Before ascending, use your artifact detector to collect valuable electro artifacts from the anomaly field.
Begin climbing the crane's ladder. At the summit, turn right and carefully traverse the crane beams toward the operator's cabin on your left.
Claiming Your Reward & Equipment Stats
After reaching the cabin, make the careful jump across to discover a stash bag containing supplies and the prized SEVA-V armor. Retrace your steps to descend safely.
The SEVA-V features upgrade potential at Rostok's technician Screw, accommodates four artifacts, and provides exceptional radiation defense with solid PSI protection. Should you prefer selling it, this suit commands premium black market prices.
