This guide will cover items on an area by area basis. The few places in this guide where I reference to a breakable container is where it always has the same contents, no matter what. Breakable containers mostly have random contents, however there exceptions to that rule albeit not many.If you search long enough and hard enough you can always find that extra artifact. This is true even for the extremely rare artifacts that some might even deem to be unique. Artifacts spawn randomly around the various areas, they spawn near anomolies and radioation and a few only spawn in some very select conditions.You must be quick if you wish to lay claim to a unique weapon if you fight with friends on your side or they might just snatch your prize away from you. Other stalkers like new fancy guns as much as you do and the first thing they'll do after a firefight is to search the nearby bodies for any weapons that outmatch their own.The other people you encounter throughout the game, be they stalker, army or bandit, are not all static, and whille the the heavily armed Duty members that guard the gates out of Rostock may never leave their posts most of the people you find out in the wilderness will travel from campsite to campsite and attack any hostiles they may meet along the way.This guide is here to help you find those items that makes even the thoughest of fights a little more managable.Д«efore we start listing the items however, there is some basics about S.T.A.L.K.E.R that one need to understand for it all to make sense

YES NOeven be one of those artifacts that you just can't seem to get your hands on anywhere you've looked.
