How To Find the Trader in Garbage in Stalker 2

Navigating the Garbage Zone in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl

After leaving the Lesser Zone, your journey continues into the sprawling Garbage area. Due to the distance from your starting base, encountering traders in this region takes time.

Initially, your quest markers won't directly guide you to the Slag Heap hub. Progressing the main storyline is necessary; completing the "Answers Come at a Price" quest unlocks this location. This involves visiting the Detention Center and the Laboratory before meeting Scar. Following this, the game will direct you to the Slag Heap, though you can explore it earlier—it's situated north of the laboratory.

The Slag Heap features two key traders:

  • Boozer: Located at the entrance, Boozer runs the bar, offering food and drinks while accepting a wide variety of trade goods. He's hard to miss.

  • Huron: Found by heading left and entering the open door on your right, Huron specializes in weapons and equipment. His room also serves as your stash, allowing you to store extra items. Interacting with Huron also initiates a side quest.

While not a trader, a Tech is located at the back of the left corridor. You'll encounter him while progressing the main quest, as you must speak with Diode.

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