Stalker 2 Artifact Farming Guide: Finding Specific Artifacts in Anomalous Zones

In Stalker 2, acquiring artifacts with specific stat bonuses to enhance your gameplay often involves extensive farming. This guide simplifies the process by detailing artifact locations based on their associated elemental anomalies. With over 75 artifacts of varying rarity (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary/Mythical), this comprehensive list will help you locate the ones you need. While some artifacts are obtained through quests, most require targeted farming in specific anomalous zones.

Artifact Locations by Anomalous Zone

Tips for Efficient Farming:

Save before searching: Create a quick save before entering an anomaly zone to reload if you don't find the desired artifact.
Use better detectors: Employ improved artifact detectors like the Veles or Bear to increase artifact spawn rates within their respective zones.

This guide provides a comprehensive overview of artifact locations in Stalker 2. Remember to check the anomaly type associated with your target artifact for successful farming.
