Stalker 2: Mysterious Plant's Unseen Impact

Discover the Elusive Weird Flower Artifact in Stalker 2

The Poppy Field in Stalker 2 holds more than just a side quest; it's home to the intriguing Weird Flower Artifact. This guide reveals its location and how to utilize its unique properties.

Locating the Weird Flower

The Weird Flower is nestled in the northern part of the Poppy Field, beyond the central L-shaped structure. Be warned: navigating the Poppy Field requires ample Non-Stop Energy Drinks to combat the debilitating drowsiness and hallucinations. Keep moving until you spot a small, distinctive blue flower on the ground.

Utilizing the Weird Flower's Power

Equip the Weird Flower in an available Artifact slot above your Quick Access menu. The number of slots depends on your gear; new players typically have only one.

The Artifact provides a temporary stealth advantage, but only after sleeping while wearing it. A convenient sleeping spot is located in a side room at the Trader's in the Lesser Zone. Be aware that sleeping can significantly advance the in-game time.

While intriguing, the Weird Flower's practical value is limited by the scarcity of sleeping locations in the game. Its stealth bonus may not outweigh other strategic options.

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