In Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, navigating the treacherous Zone requires robust protection. The SEVA-V suit, a highly valuable piece of armor from the SEVA series, offers excellent survivability and is surprisingly easy to acquire early in the game. This guide shows you how to obtain this free, high PSI protection suit.
Obtaining the SEVA-V Suit in Stalker 2
The SEVA-V suit is located at the Scientist Helicopter point of interest (POI) in the Rostok region, southwest of the Rostok base. This area features a crashed helicopter within an Electro anomaly field and a large, rusty crane. Reaching the suit requires a bit of climbing.
Accessing the POI and Climbing the Crane
Upon entering the Scientist Helicopter POI, you'll see the crashed chopper and a ladder leading up the crane. Before climbing, use your artifact detector to locate and retrieve an Electro-type artifact from the anomaly field near the helicopter. This will help you mitigate the hazards. Then, ascend the crane using the ladder.
Once atop the crane, proceed to the operator's cabin on the left side by walking across the crane structure.
Locating and Utilizing the SEVA-V Suit
Inside the operator's cabin, you'll find a bag containing valuable supplies and, importantly, the SEVA-V suit. Carefully retrieve the suit and retrace your steps down the crane.
The SEVA-V suit boasts impressive radiation and PSI protection and can be upgraded by Screw, the technician at the Rostok base. It allows for four artifact slots, enhancing its protective capabilities further. If you already possess superior armor, selling the SEVA-V suit can provide a significant amount of in-game currency.
