Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl boasts a range of armor suits enhancing player survival within The Zone's hazardous environment. The SEVA-V suit, a valuable free acquisition from the SEVA series, stands out for its early game accessibility and superior 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 within an Electro anomaly and a substantial rusted crane. Reaching the suit requires some climbing.
Accessing the Crane and the Suit
Upon entering the Scientist Helicopter POI, you'll see the crashed helicopter (right, within the Electro anomaly) and a ladder leading up the rusted crane (left). Before ascending, utilize an artifact detector to acquire an Electro-type artifact from the anomalous field near the helicopter – this will be helpful.
Climb the crane's ladder. At the top, move right across the crane to the operator's cabin (left). Carefully jump the gap to the cabin's interior. Inside, you'll find a bag containing valuable supplies and the SEVA-V armor. Retrace your steps to descend.
SEVA-V Suit Stats and Usage
The SEVA-V suit, upgradeable by Rostok base technician Screw, accommodates four artifacts. It provides excellent radiation protection and decent PSI protection. If you possess superior armor, selling the SEVA-V suit can yield a substantial profit.
