Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl boasts a diverse array of armor, enhancing player survival within The Zone's hazardous environment. The SEVA-V suit, a standout amongst the SEVA series, offers a significant advantage – and it's free! Early acquisition makes it invaluable for those seeking robust PSI protection. Here's how to obtain it:
Locating the SEVA-V Suit
The SEVA-V suit is located at the Scientist Helicopter Point of Interest (POI) in Stalker 2's Rostok region. This POI is southwest of the Rostok base, marked by a large field containing a crashed helicopter amidst an Electro anomaly and a massive, rusted crane. Reaching the suit requires some climbing.
Accessing the POI and Ascending the Crane
Upon entering the Scientist Helicopter POI, you'll see the crashed helicopter (within the Electro anomaly) to your right and a ladder leading up the rusted crane to your left. Before climbing, utilize an artifact detector to retrieve an Electro-type artifact from the anomalous field near the helicopter. This will assist you in navigating the area.
Climb the crane's ladder. Once at the top, turn right and traverse the crane to the operator's cabin on the left.
Retrieving the SEVA-V Suit and its Specifications
Carefully jump across the gap to the operator's cabin. Inside, you'll find a bag containing valuable supplies and the SEVA-V armor. Retrace your steps to descend the crane.
The SEVA-V suit can be upgraded by Screw, the technician at Rostok base. It allows for four artifact slots and provides excellent radiation protection alongside respectable PSI protection. If you possess superior armor, selling the SEVA-V suit can yield a substantial amount of in-game currency.
