The game Stalker has so captivated the players that not everyone, after completing its three parts, agrees to so easily leave this extraordinary world that lives by its own rules. After the release of Call of Pripyat, quite a few mods were released, which were made in fairly good quality and were addictive with their quests and problems that the main character had to solve.
Stalker secret paths walkthrough
The very first hero of the Stalker epic, Strelok, reminded of himself more than once after the Shadow of Chernobyl, since it was his knowledge that was often in demand in subsequent parts. The mod takes us back to Strelok again. In Secret Paths, the plot develops even before the event of Shadows of Chernobyl. If we consider the mod from the point of view of its characteristics, namely the storyline, graphics and gameplay, then it is difficult to find anything to complain about, because the mod is made simply at the highest level.
The graphics of the objects make you forget that you are at the computer, and not in the Zone, where dangers lurk around every turn, be it anomalies or mutants with bandits. Walkthrough Stalker secret paths 2 It can’t be called boring, since the storyline is quite varied, although the quests are still the same: either to find some items, or to kill some mutants or mercenaries. In any case, in the second Secret Paths there is a place to think and shoot.
Introduction
Secret Paths 2 is a new prequel to the original Shadows of Chernobyl. A new storyline that intertwines with the quests already known from TT, and which reveals more deeply the reason for the appearance of the main character in the Zone. The main goal that faces him is now quite specific and clear. Quests that were known from NS5 and TT have undergone a lot of changes. Supplemented and adjusted in order to correct a lot of errors and plot gaps, as well as to more fully reveal the main storyline.
Some tips for passing
Hang up the dosimeter from the very beginning and do not remove it to avoid problems with grenades. The dosimeter should always hang - even during a robbery when everything can be put away until the robbery itself - leave the dosimeter on your belt, and the sleeping bag always remains in the inventory during the GG. Problems with grenades usually arise after robberies. There should be one dosimeter in your inventory and hang on your belt. The amount of captured radiation can be viewed by pressing the TAB key (default). If, nevertheless, grenades are no longer picked up, we begin to “shamanize”, first we look to see if there is a second (third, etc.) dosimeter lying around in the inventory - we should sell it and move to another location, throw away the grenades one by one and at once the ground and pick it up, remove/lay out/hang the dosimeter on the belt, put ALL the swag down to the underpants together with the dosimeter in the bag, take one dosimeter, hang it on the belt, take one grenade - it should be taken, then we take all the swag NOT AT ONCE, but individually.
Make saves in key places before moving to another location, before taking and handing in or after handing in tasks, especially if you are not sure that you have chosen the right road, or you do not know whether there will be a way out from the location you are going to move to. This will help you replay if something goes wrong. Carefully read the dialogues with the characters, many clues are contained in the dialogues - you can take screenshots of the dialogues by pressing the F12 key.
Search the corpses of killed enemies for the presence of quest items - amulets, parts of maps. Corpses disappear after a reboot, and even more so after re-entering a location.
With the release of the Update, many items are not only hidden, but may also end up in different places for different players and during different playthroughs, look more carefully.
Quest characters must be protected, well, everyone who plays Stalker should know this rule; for those who like to shoot, there are other wonderful games. If you still kill the quest giver, it’s better to replay it, and not ask what to do, then you’ll end up in an impenetrable bottleneck, and you’ll have to replay it a lot more.
Transitions between locations are also Secret Paths, some will have to be searched for, some are given for completing tasks, some are temporary, some are permanent, some are opened by finding special artifacts - “guides”. There will be a separate description for transitions.
According to the passage itself - you will be robbed several times during the game, if this situation does not suit you, put away your property before the robbery, then you will take it. The robbers take those things from the inventory that can be put in the pockets, the rest remain with the GG and do not disappear during the robbery. The dosimeter cannot be taken away and must remain on the belt; problems with taking grenades arise precisely after robberies. Also, some Persians, who in the game need to hand over property for a while, then when returning, do not give back all the things - it is also better to dive before “undressing”.
Now, after a robbery, the money taken by the robbers can be returned back - search the corpses of the offenders, in the robbers' inventory you will see bundles of money - this is your money, and bundles of money can also fall out of some corpses (not all).
On the first trip to Pripyat you will be robbed to the bone, so you can put away anything especially valuable either before going to the MG at Lesnik, or stock up on Mozart and make a hiding place in the MG. Your money will also be lost. Before the transition itself, we carefully examine the sewer - we pick up Krol's diary from the floor, we will need it later.
Don’t prescribe everything to merchants yourself - they may go for a walk and then you won’t find them. Also, when registering a large number of items, these items are “ejected” from the merchants’ inventory, which leads to the game freezing and even to a dead freeze. It is better to register if you know what you are doing and only quest items in case of their loss. If you don’t know, don’t bother, it’s better to ask in the topic - maybe you can do without this item, there will be an incentive to go through the mod a second time. If you really want to register something for trade, register it in a single copy; to get several items of the same type, it is better to make a save/load next to the merchant - the item will appear on sale again. Before registering, make copies of the files that you will edit so that you can return them back if the edit is unsuccessful; you should also return the original files after you have received the required items and there is no longer a need for them. In case of unsuccessful edits and rollbacks of edited files to their original state, load saves made before making the edits, otherwise glitches cannot be avoided.
Keep an eye on the level of captured radiation - more details about the levels are written in the mod description. Hang artefacts on your belt in accordance with their properties and make sure that radioactive artefacts are compensated by artefacts that remove radiation, it is also advisable to compensate for the harmful properties of some artefacts with the beneficial properties of others, cook artefacts - modifications, as a rule, have more pronounced positive properties, and negative ones are reduced.
Tips for quest characters (1)
I will describe the most common problems that may arise with some, I will not describe all the characters.
Do not rush to immediately complete tasks to kill some Persians - they may turn out to be key or can give something in their lives. Murder is not an end in itself for the Stalker at all.
When we go on a search mission Vasilyeva it is advisable to kill the controller before meeting with Vasiliev. Vasiliev he might get stuck in the cave - we go down into the cave and push him in the butt, he should come out, if you run out in front of him, he might stay there. You can save before descending into the cave and talking with him - the next save is after he leaves the cave, it is better not to save in the cave. We help on Yantar Vasiliev fight off the zombies, when the task works, go up to him and talk, accompany him to the camp and talk to Denom, and only after talking with Denom let's go to the bunker Sakharov.
Many can't find Griga in MG, although they see the mark and hear his voice of greeting. Walk around the rooms and you will find him - he is on the second floor in a dead-end room.
Don't refuse to help Dyaku in the shooting of military personnel at Chernobyl NPP-1, he will then give a tip to a case with medicines for Solomon. He also has to shoot a spy. If he died at the hands of the military, replay the game. If he can’t shoot the spy, it means he dropped his gun, sell him a loaded gun, or throw it next to him, he’ll pick it up and do his dirty deed, otherwise you’ll have to dirty your hands by killing a neutral stalker.
When rescued Ghost from mercenaries on assignment Paramedic we must protect him from injury (and, of course, from death), because during treatment Shooter members of the Monolith, Ghost will also become a Monolith and turn out to be an enemy after brainwashing Paramedic. A ghost sent to kill Charon, a quest character, so we’re not in a hurry to finish him off, but respond to the message Paramedic approach him.
Another quest character - Fang, also needs protection when leading to show the transition from Pripyat to the Swamps. After Fang will show up at the AS, where he will have to be saved from the mercenaries once again. On AC Fang will appear after completing all tasks Count and also find documents in the X-16 - laptop.
Some characters change their locations, and if you need to find someone in one place, and you take too long to find him, he may end up in another place, and he may no longer have the necessary dialogues.
The paramedic migrates from the stadium to the house with the grocery store, so we don’t delay the search for PDA for Borov and a trip to Pripyat, for a copy of the PDA to to the ghost we need to go before the assault on Bar, Ghost will send to To the magician, and the one to To the paramedic. Paramedic in the grocery store will not give you a murder task Magician, will move to the grocery store after the storming of the Bar "Dolgy".
Magician stands behind the fence near the transition to the Swamps, you can approach it using the teleport in the garages, read the dialogue with Ghost. Way back from Magician is located near these same garages from the outside - the teleport will return the GG to the playing area of the location.
When you first enter the Bar, find the stalker Sokhaty and talk to him, then to Prince and again with Sokhatym- several branches of the plot begin with a conversation with him - work on Prince, search for cache Semetsky and then search for PDA Borov. We immediately take from Prince task to deal with the stalker Zheka- the search for the cache will begin with it Semetsky. Don't forget to talk to Borovoy- he will talk about what he has Count, the local security chief for the gang, has work for GG. First task Count You can do it right away at the same location - it won’t take much time. You can also go straight to a mechanic Potapov in the Bar and take on a quest to find a minigun circuit - a killer thing when dealing with crowds of evil spirits. To start searching for PDA Borov we need to complete all the "Duty" tasks in the TD, get the TD-Cordon transition, when we return to Bar we hand over the hard drive Prince and come to Borov- ask him about work - not to be confused with cyclic quests.
Many people die before completing the task, a stalker nicknamed Noodles. I advise that when we go towards the Landfill from the Bar for the first time, the last thing to do is approach the last bandit in the Bar in the bar itself and take an order from him for Noodles, save after this and run to the Landfill if you receive a message about death Noodles- you can replay. This character likes to die in anomalies, get caught by wild boars and get shot by bandits, killing him is not necessary - just talk to him. Further, he is not needed - most likely he will die on his own. Will give a tip on Antique dealer, you will have to ask about him Borov.
After talking with Noodles are looking for Zheku- it's in the depot, you can find it Tank driver at the Landfill behind an abandoned equipment parking lot - he will talk if you picked up a stalker's diary in the MG sewer Krola, or approach it after the first descent into X-18 - there will be fewer monsters on the second visit to X-18. Tankman gives a tip to the place where the bioradar dropped.
Lefty, whom he asks to find and persuade to join Freedom Lukash, asks you to bring him a weapon and a suit - they must be in full working order and be in the inventory in a single copy. After you have brought him everything he requires and given it to him, do not immediately follow him, try to be outside the a-life zone with him, so he will get to the AS without problems, but it is better to be in other locations altogether, he needs some time to move on AC. In the line of sight, even if you do not see him, he may die. If you go straight to the Landfill after giving him the equipment, you can see him wandering around the Landfill, here he can be killed by the mercenaries that we meet when we carry rifles from Besa Petrenko, and the pigs may meet, and the bandits at the checkpoint are also unlikely to let him through. Also in a-life he can end up in an anomaly. Me after talking with Left-handed I'm going down to Varyag in the dungeon while I'm running in circles Lefty already calmly gets to the AC. To be on the safe side, you can put a mark on Lefty and watch how it moves - you can also make sure not to get too close to it.
A tip to the major Yarofeeva at the checkpoint gives Varangian after talking with Bartender, but he will talk only after the circles of hell. Myself Yarofeev will appear after talking with Bartender when we come to him from Varangian.
Petrenko will appear in the TD after successfully defending “Duty” from the attack of bandits on his first visit to the TD. I need to talk to Voronin, then with Sobolev and again with Voronin.
After being persuaded Lefty(i.e. they brought him what he asked for) and he went to the AS to the Svobodovites, and also if they talked with Bartender and then with Varyag about the major Yarofeeva, will appear in the Bar Pathfinder, I recommend that before your first trip to the DT, go on assignment Pathfinder to a meeting with Incognita, after this meeting Pathfinder There will be a task for DT - you can complete it along the way.
Miser With Screw They immediately take their positions after we take on the task of storming the Barrier.
The Svoboda guard appears at the armory a little later.
Hints on quest characters (2)
Miser in one of the quests he asks to bring bread and says that he needs to talk to Sidorovich at the peacekeepers' location - he knows where Baker find, you need to have time to talk to Sidorovich while he is at this location, then he moves to the Cordon to “his” well-known place, there he tips on Baker will not give.
After we bring the flour Baker and take the task for the toolbox in the utility room Baker his assistant will appear - Vano, he will also have one task for the GG - to bring a box with mines, I advise you to make a save because there will be a “warm” meeting with the Marauders, with the leader of the Marauders Razuvaeva there will be a fragment of the map with a cache later Semetsky, you can complete the Marauders’ task in different ways - your further passage through the plot may depend on your progress.
Sviblov with a group of diggers is located on the Radar and the first approach to it must be done according to instructions Informant to help diggers. Informant gives a parcel to give to him, it contains food, first aid kits, vodka - in general, everything that Informant the dal must be brought intact and given back Sviblov, make sure not to overuse first aid kits and not to use up the parcel, the task will hang. Some people go to Radar from Yantar for the first time and find Sviblova dead - in theory Sviblov seems to need help, so you need to approach him by taking a task from Informant, it is not necessary to come with the AC, but the parcel should be delivered. Do not leave monsters and enemy NPCs near the group's campsite Sviblova. Also complete all tasks Sviblova on the first approach to him - on the super-bloodsucker, on the traitor and go down to X-10 for documents and a system manager. First take the system unit on the upper level, it is often thrown by the bureaucrats, it is located in the room in front of the room with a gap through which you can see the exit from the X-10. After you find everything in the X-10, try to clear all the enemies so that there will be fewer problems in subsequent visits.
When will you receive from Count a tip that Sviblov may give a transition to the MG, then get ready to immediately follow it. Grab a walkie-talkie for Zahara, give it back along the way. Transfer from Sviblova in MG it is temporary and then disappears. If you receive a tip from Count but are not ready to go to MG yet Sviblov there are still things to do, just don’t start a conversation with him about the transition. On this trip to the MG, don’t forget to find a character on the outskirts of the MG who will clarify the situation with Mohammed. A trip to the MG should be made before the assault on the Bar by "Dolg".
Mahomet will find you on its own - you just need to finish the dialogue with Sidorovich at the Cordon when he moves into his rightful place. Semetsky will appear in the Sarcophagus after talking with Mohammed.
If you take on some task and complete it, we don’t delay in submitting it. After the storming of the Bar by "Duty", some characters from the Bar fade - so try to complete and turn in all the tasks to the quest runners in the Bar before the assault. After the assault on Bar Dolgov you will not find Borov, Count And Pathfinder. Prince will be killed. If there are any tasks for them, complete them before taking the Bar, the last moment - before taking the Bar card from Borov.
Transitions in Secret Paths 2 (1)
In Secret Paths 2, many transitions between locations (they are also secret paths) should be discovered as the game progresses. Some must be obtained for certain tasks, some are found through tips, some open special arts - “Guides”, they should be found and taken to the Pathfinder - the stalker in the Bar, a specialist in Secret Paths. Some transitions become permanent, others will disappear after a certain time.
There are immediately only transitions in well-known locations south of Bar - from the Landfill and back - to Cordon, to Agroprom, to the Dark Valley and to Bar.
- Transitions of the initial stage of the game before the first entry into Pripyat
At the beginning of the game, before the first entry into Pripyat, all transitions are temporary and are given for one time - go to another location, and the transition from the new location must be obtained/earned. After receiving the transition, the message “New path!” pops up; in the PDA you can see on the map where it is located. The main difficulty is the transition from Amber to the Forest; you need to find it yourself. Sakharov gives a fairly clear tip on where to look for him - in the eastern part of the location in the lowland there is a bus, in it in the Original PM we come to after the ejection when we go to take measurements with Kruglov. You need to walk around the northern part of the bus - where the cabin is, a passage will open at a certain point. Another transition can cause difficulties - from the MG to the Forest on the instructions of the Forester to bring a box of provisions, after talking with Leila, she says that we need to approach the Guide who brought the GG to the monastery, do not forget about this and approach him - he will take the GG to to an already familiar place and the transition from the MG to the Forest will again open for one passage. The transition to Pripyat is given by Grieg, we carefully read the dialogue with him and save immediately after it, the transition is one-time and if you managed to dive into the sewer, there will be no way back - you can climb out through the hatch, but we will not go back down into the sewer. In the sewer, don’t forget to look at your feet - we pick up the diary of the stalker Krol, you’ll need it later, it doesn’t disappear from your inventory.
- Transitions Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant - Sarcophagus - Control Bunker - Pripyat
The transition to Chernobyl NPP-2 (this is the northern part of the Chernobyl NPP, the southern part will be called Chernobyl NPP-1) is issued along with Charon’s task to destroy the “infidels”. The transition is located in the upper part of the Sarcophagus (the interior of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant) in the room where the Monolith stone itself is located. We climb up the reactor, see a stone and a teleport, dive into the teleport and find ourselves on the wall, then along the inclined beam of the destroyed structure we pass through the gap in the wall and go left all the way, then turn left again and find ourselves at the transition.
The return passage to the Sarcophagus will be located in the central part of Chernobyl NPP-2 near Solomon.
Charon's next task is to clear the Monolith's Control Bunker, you need to get into it from Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant-2 where in the Original PM we exit the Bunker at the end - in the western side of Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant-2, the transition is marked on the map. At the end of the game this transition will disappear.
Afterwards, Charon will send to Pripyat for medicine to the Paramedic. The transition to Pripyat is located at Chernobyl NPP-1, to get to Chernobyl NPP-1 we go down into the basements where the bureaucrats were shot on the first task. At the end of the corridor in the shaft with a broken spiral staircase there will be a transition; in this place in the Original we find ourselves in the Sarcophagus from Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant-1. From Chernobyl NPP-1 it is not difficult to find the transition to Pripyat. Anyone who has completed the Original TC will easily find all these transitions. These transitions will be permanent until the end of the game, except for the transition to the Control Bunker.
In the Swamps we will meet the Doctor, he will help you get out of the Swamps, he will send Drifters to the checkpoint, from them we will get the transition to the Forest, in the Forest the Hunters will help you find the transition - to the Army Depots (AS). This path is temporary.
Further, as the game progresses, we will have to discover or receive transitions between the main locations, well known from the Original TC and from other mods, most of these transitions will be permanent. Temporary transitions will be specifically indicated.
Once on the AS, you can see that there are no transitions from them, so you will have to work hard for the inhabitants of the AS.
- Transitions from speakers
The transition to the Bar will be passed off by the Informant as a special folder that must be brought from the AS Base, where “Svoboda” is setting up; the Pathfinder will talk about the transition after a tip from Lukash - so you will have to bring the “Svobodovites” to the AS Base.
We also receive a transition to Radar from the Informant along with a task to help the diggers led by Sviblov. Here the following point should be taken into account - the first approach to Sviblov must be precisely on the instructions of the Informant, and the parcel must be delivered safe and sound. You can not immediately take the task to help the diggers, but combine a trip to Radar with other tasks in this location, the main thing is not to get carried away with going through other branches of the plot, and not find yourself in a situation where you need to go to Sviblov on another task and on another transition without taking missions for help from the Informant, you can find Sviblov already dead or lose him later for “incomprehensible” reasons.
In our passage we come up against the need to get to Yantar. The first approach to Yantar must be made through the Wild Territory (DT - aka the Rostok plant adjacent to Bar).
- Hiking to Yantar
To open the transition from Bar to DT, you need to complete the following tasks:
- complete the first two tasks of the Count - one at the Bar location, does not require any transitions, the second - to help the Prince on the Radar, will require the AS-Radar transition, we receive from the Informant, it is convenient to combine with the help of Sviblov’s diggers;
- go to the peacekeepers at the "Walking Room" location or the Peacekeeping Corps (MK) and talk afterwards with the Bartender, he will say that the GG was looking for the Count and he has another task, when you go to the Bar location a message will pop up - go to the Count.
After completing these tasks, the Count will send to Amber to Caesar to bring him three flash drives, we find the flash drives on the territory of the Bar behind the fence, you can go the same way that you followed the Count’s first task, when we find it, the message “New path” will immediately pop up! and the transition will be available.
You can also talk and take tasks for DT from the Pathfinder - it will be in the Bar, it is advisable to go to a meeting with Incognito at Agroprom before this - the meeting is possible if you use the temporary transition from Agroprom to the dungeon, it is located on the street in a destroyed descent into the dungeon, the transition will then disappear.
At the DT, you can complete tasks from the Pathfinder and go to the Railwaymen, they will also give you several tasks to be completed at the same location.
To go to Yantar, you need to find another Secret Path - after the tunnel with "Zharki" we explore the area to the right of the road, near one of the bushes we will find a Secret Path - now we will have constant transitions Bar-DT-Yantar.
- Transitions from Yantar
On DT - we get it as soon as we find the transition from DT to Yantar;
To the Radar and back - after placing tags on mutants;
To Agroprom and back - after a showdown with Associate Professor Dorodin in the TD.
Transitions from Yantar and back are constant.
Transitions in Secret Paths 2 (2)
We will receive one of the important transitions from Lukash - the Radar-Pripyat transition, we will receive as a result of a multi-step quest to find a PDA for Borov.
- Transition Radar-Pripyat
It begins, oddly enough, with the stalker Sokhaty, who asks for help in freeing his friends from a gangster prison. Without a conversation with Sokhaty, the Prince will be silent, there will be no conversation about the hard drive, about the debtor Zheka, who will give the first fragment and the task to collect all the fragments of the map with Semetsky’s hiding place. After we bring the hard drive to the Prince, we approach Borov and take on the task of searching for the missing Courier and the PDA with him. After failing to find the PDA, the message “Talk to Borov” pops up in the TD, we talk - and he says that the Svoboda members have scouted out the road to Pripyat, we talk to Lukash and undertake to bring a certain radioactive container from the Radar, in exchange for it Lukash will give the Radar-Pripyat passage. The transition is permanent. Searching for a container can also be combined with the help of diggers and the Prince.
- Transitions MK-Bar and Radar-TD
The baker, to help find bags of flour on the AS, gives a tip where you can find the MK-Bar transition, we look around the swamp in the south of MK behind the factory with zombies, we examine the boulders near the swamp.
The informant will give out the Radar-TD transition for a couple of “Tears of the Chimera” artifacts. On the Radar it starts at a dead end where the Prince is standing.
- Transitions obtained using the "Explorer" arts
From Cordon to Agroprom - located on Cordon near the western end of the railway tracks:
From Agroprom to Cordon - located in the south of the location near the barbed wire gate, there are many anomalies and wild boars nearby;
From DT to AC - located behind the fence at the north-western end of the railway tracks, there are many anomalies, dogs and pseudo-dogs nearby;
From AS to Yantar - located in a hollow near a fallen helicopter, Svoboda members can pick it up from the Barrier. There is one important note about this passage - do not use it until the regular passage to Yantar through the DT has been opened, there will be no way back. I also don’t recommend using it without special protection from radiation - we prepare art, look for a good suit, when descending on Yantar we pass the radiation barrier and you can grab a lot - even death ( in the Update, this “guide” opens a path from the AS to the TD - thus, it will not be possible to get to Yantar bypassing the standard path through the TD).
- Transition Radar-MG
After completing all of the Count’s tasks, he gives a tip that the Chistonebovites seem to have a transfer to the MG, and that they have lost a person, you need to volunteer to help find this person and get a transfer to the MG for this. We approach Sviblov on the Radar (I hope we helped him by this point, brought the parcel and completed his tasks), he tells how to get to the MG, first you need to find a teleport that will throw the MG over the thorn, then we go to the transition itself. We take a walkie-talkie with us for Zakhar - we’ll give it to him along the way. You should not delay your trip to the MG - the transition will disappear. In the MG we speak with Leila - it temporarily opens a path to the Forest, and also do not forget about the meeting with Mohammed or a person who can give a tip to him. He will be waiting in one of the houses on the outskirts of the city. Then we go to the Forest, the Forester sends us to the Hunters, we give the radio to Zakhar, and the Hunters guide the GG to the place where the lost one might be, we save the lost one - it turns out to be Leila’s sister Karina, she takes her to the place where the kidnappers caught her and her guide, we find the corpse of the guide and his PDA, according to data from the PDA, Karina takes us to the transition to the Swamps. This trail to the Swamps, starting from Radar, is temporary.
- Search for "Superconductor"
The doctor gives us a flash drive for the Pathfinder and also a guide dog, which will show us the path from the Swamps to MG and further to AS.
The trail that begins in the Swamps and reaches the AS through the MG at the tip of a guide dog is constant. Take care of your dog during the journey from the Doctor to the trailhead. Next, we take the flash drive to the Pathfinder in the Bar and he tells you where to find the “Superconductor” - it will open the return path from the AS to the Swamps through the MG. “Superconductor” must be looked for in the dark from one to two in the morning on the speakers at the edges of the location. The art glows and is clearly visible, located in a place where no one walks or picks it up. Before starting the search, I recommend saving; if you don’t have time to find it, just reboot and run through other places. The trail starts from AS in MG, there we carefully look at the map and look for the transition to the Swamps. The path is permanent.
In the final at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant we will meet with the legend of the Zone, stalker Semetsky, with Solomon, with the Pathfinder. The Pathfinder will be at the transition to the Control Bunker, but there will be no transition - the Pathfinder says that now you can get into the Bunker through the Sarcophagus, we go to the Sarcophagus and from there we get to the Bunker. The transition in the Sarcophagus to the Bunker will be in the same place where in the Original we get into the Bunker - a coded door. Next is the finale. The choice of ending is up to you.
Recipes for art modifications
In Secret Paths you can change the properties of some artifacts. To do this, you need to find a transmutation recipe, have the necessary art and find the corresponding anomaly described in the recipe. Artifacts have different properties - positive ones are displayed in green, negative ones - in red. When hanging art on a belt, it is advisable to strive to ensure that the total sum of the various properties of all hung art is in a positive direction, especially for art that induces radiation and removes it.
There are several chains for converting artifacts - from simple to absolute.
Absolutes, as a rule, have mostly only positive properties, maybe one negative one that can be compensated for by other arts.
Recipes are found in different ways - some in secrets, others as rewards during tasks. To get the absolute you need to have complete
a chain of recipes, so try not to miss finding them and do not neglect completing tasks.
The first recipe that can be obtained is from Sakharov on the first visit to Yantar for the cyclic quests to find/bring, bring a snork’s foot and the recipe for “Tears of Electra” will be displayed in the PDA in the “Help” - “Recipes” section - a very useful modification for getting started. If you missed it, don’t worry, you can get it later on your next visit to Sakharov. This recipe begins the chain of art modifications up to Tears of the Chimera.
List of modification recipes (1)
- Recipes for art conversions to "Tears of the Chimera"
Artifact "Drop"- has the following protective properties: -10 radiation and -18 endurance - removes a little radiation but increases fatigue.
Recipe for "Tears of Electra":
We throw a “Drop” into the “Electra” anomaly - we get “Tears of Electra” with the properties of -10 radiation and +18 endurance - it also removes radiation and increases endurance.Recipe for "Tears of Fire":
We throw “Tears of Electra” into the “Frying” anomaly and get “Tears of Fire” with the properties of -20 radiation.Recipe for "Tears of the Chimera":
We throw “Tears of Fire” into the “Jellied” anomaly and get “Tears of the Chimera” with protective properties of -30 radiation, +40 protection from telepathy and +5 bullet resistance, and also worsens health -150 and increases bleeding +153.Recipes for “Tears of Fire” and “Tears of Chimera” are also given by Sakharov after completing the task of eliminating Associate Professor Dorodin, as well as the transition from Agroprom to Yantar and back.
- "Kolobok" transformation chain

List of modification recipes (2)
There is one interesting recipe that is not included in the chain of art modifications - a recipe for "Symbion". This artifact is obtained by cooking four pieces of art at once in the “Jellied” anomaly - “Jellyfish”, “Drops”, “Blood of the Stone” and “Thorns”. We throw the arts one by one into the “Jellied” - if all four arts are thrown out and the anomaly accepts them, there will be a white flash. This artifact has the following data - decreased endurance -18, increased bleeding +56, decreased resistance to tearing -15, positive protection from telepathy +50 and protection from radiation +10. It seems that the parameters are not so hot - but! This recipe can be found in the X-18 in a backpack on the first visit to the Dark Valley, when there are few art modifications and recipes, the art for cooking it is not rare and is often found, two such art on the belt and controllers are not afraid, plus +10 protection from radiation - this parameter does not affect the speed of radiation output, but is added to the protection of the suit, and helps well when completing Caesar’s mission on Yantar.
The following chain of recipes for modifying the “Mother’s Beads” art is very interesting from the point of view of bullet resistance protection.

Search for Semetsky's hiding place
In the Secret Paths there are several cross-cutting ones that do not affect the completion of tasks, but are very interesting in terms of the results of the findings. I will describe the search for the cache of the Zone legend of the stalker Semetsky. It starts with taking the task of dealing with one stalker from the Prince in Bar, first you need to approach the stalker Sokhaty in Bar and take from him the task of helping to free your friends from the bandit prison, without this the Prince will be silent and we won’t see any hiding place. We find the stalker we are looking for in the Landfill, his name is Zheka, we talk to him and he gives us the first fragment of a map indicating Semetsky’s hiding place as payment for his debt to the Prince. From the moment the task is accepted, the found fragments will be displayed in the PDA in the “Journal” section; before the task is taken from Zheka, the found fragments are displayed in the inventory.
- This is where fragments of the map with Semetsky’s hiding place are found. They are described as we go through my walkthrough, your order may differ:
1st fragment- we receive from Zheka with the task itself;
2nd fragment- we will find when searching the corpse of a zombified professor in the X-18 laboratory in search of an anomalous “Thunderstorm” for the Tankman, to talk with the Tankman we need to pick up the diary of the stalker Krol in the sewers of the Dead City when we are looking for an exit to Pripyat on a tip from Grieg ( in the Update, this fragment will be with the leader of the Marauders, Razuvaev - they will appear at the Peacekeepers location when we go to get mines for Vano);
8th fragment will be with one of the bandits in the northern complex in the Dark Valley when we go to rescue the Courier on Borov’s assignment to search for PDA;
4th fragment Major Yarofeev will be at the military checkpoint on the Cordon, we search him after the conversation and the murder, leaving him alive is more expensive for himself, he begins to shoot at the GG;
3rd fragment we will find another zombie professor while clearing the base for peacekeepers;
6th fragment there will be a bandit named Shiloh, you will meet this character during a robbery in the Wild Territory, do not avoid the robbery if you want to get a fragment, without the robbery there will be no fragment;
7th fragment will come across from one of the mercenaries when we repel Fang from an ambush set up by mercenaries at the Army Warehouses - we also search ALL the corpses;
5th fragment we will find from one of the Monoliths that we will meet in X-18 on the instructions of Fang.
Finding parts of the minigun circuit and amulets
There are a couple more cross-cutting and interesting quests in Secret Paths 2; I will describe them in one post, since they intersect.
When you first (can be later - it’s just better not to waste time) entering the Bar, the mechanic Potapov will be standing in the bar itself, we approach him and receive from him a task to search for parts of the minigun circuit, the gun is very effective and can greatly help with crowds of evil spirits. From the story we learn that there are only seven parts and they were kept by different stalkers of the missing in different locations. Therefore, you need to look for the corpses of missing stalkers or backpacks. I advise you to make a screenshot of the dialogue to avoid misunderstandings and unnecessary questions. I will describe them in the order in which I find them. The numbering is arbitrary and has no connection to parts of the circuit.
Minigun circuit parts:
- in the Landfill, in the southeastern part of the location behind the swamp and forest, there is a nook, there are full of blind dogs and pseudo-dogs, zombies are walking around;
in X-18, we will examine all the corners on the lower level (in the Update, a corpse with part of the circuit will spawn randomly in several places); - in the dungeons of Agroprom, it is not difficult to find (in the Update, a corpse with part of the scheme will spawn randomly in several places);
- at a military checkpoint, located at the checkpoint itself in a backpack in a relatively visible place (in Update, the backpack can be in different, but not very hard-to-reach places - we look carefully);
- on the Radar, we examine the territory of the scorched forest behind a mesh fence, the corpse lies on the boulders closer to the steep stone walls, the boulders are accessible for a regular jump (in the Update, the corpse can randomly appear anywhere in the territory of the scorched forest on the Radar);
- at the exit from the X-16, it is easy to find;
- in Pripyat in the hotel we find the corpse of a stalker, we look into all the rooms, look out the windows, he will also have an amulet, I’ll write about it below (in the Update the digger’s corpse can also be located in different places of the hotel).
The search for amulets begins with Sviblov’s task - to deal with the traitor. After completion, we approach and search the corpse of Fedi the Robber, we find nothing, but in the inventory there will be one amulet, it seems like it was removed from the neck. Then, in a conversation with Sviblov, we ask about him, he sends for clarification to the Wanderer, he will appear right away. We talk with him, take a screenshot of the conversation - for those who are especially forgetful, he tells what kind of amulets they are, where some can be found, the rest are located according to the plot and cannot be passed by. There are six of them in total.
Search for amulets:
- Chimeron- we remove Fedi the Robber from his neck, the search for amulets begins with him, he slightly protects from electricity +10 and explosion +10, is radioactive -10;
- The Dragon- we find on the AC in the village of bloodsuckers in a terrible place of “ritual” death of stalkers, has protective properties against burns +10 and chemical burns +10, radioactive -10 ( in the Update, this amulet can randomly appear anywhere in the village on the AC );
- Garganon- we’ll find Semetsky in his hiding place, slightly protects against telepathy +15, radioactive -10;
- Avalon- will be found in the corpse of a digger in Pripyat in a hotel along with a minigun circuit, has protective properties against explosion +10 and bullet resistance +10, radioactive -10 ( in the Update, the digger’s corpse can be located in different places of the hotel and near it - we’ll explore all the nooks and crannies );
- Catalan- one of the well-known characters who needs to be killed will have a radioactive value of -10;
- Sarcon- found in X-16, lies on the upper level of the installation, but the burers can throw it somewhere, reduces protection from electricity -15 and slightly removes radiation +10 ( in the Update, the amulet can be in different places on the upper level and not only in X-16 itself but also after exiting X-16).

List of quest items
The list of items required for some quests, I will not describe all the items, only those that can be found in advance and brought immediately to the character who may require them, and which can be lost/sold before they are needed, those items that are asked to be carried/brought I hope you yourself will realize not to sell and not to hide in unreliable pockets:
- two "Night Stars" or 10 tails of a blind dog- the Paramedic will need it for medicines for Charon, one is immediately in the box on the lower level of the Sarcophagus, the second (and more if you’re lucky) can be found at Chernobyl NPP-1 and at the stadium in Pripyat; you can shoot dog tails at Chernobyl NPP-1 - immediately after leaving the Sarcophagus, I advise you not to approach Dyak but run around the location and collect art, also not far from Dyak along the road we will meet several dogs and jerboas - be careful, there is a radioactive zone nearby, six more tails can be removed from dogs that will spawn at the crossing to Pripyat if you received a tip from Dyak about a container with medicines for Solomon at Chernobyl NPP-1, if you found this container on your own - these dogs will not be there;
- five cans of canned food- to Charon’s guard for a recipe, we buy one at a time from Solomon, from the Paramedic three in one go, from Mahon for the “Golden Fish” you can get four cans, they may turn up in corpses during a search;
- another guard of Charon asks five PDA- gives a grenade launcher for the domestic "Koster" barrels, and Solomon's guard asks for five bottles of vodka, gives him a TT pistol, these items are not particularly important, but finding five PDAs or five bottles of vodka is difficult at this stage of the game, so do not take tasks if they are in your inventory there are no items you are looking for, if you find them, come up and take the task and turn it in right away, if you don’t find it, it wasn’t really necessary;
- two "Crystals" or two "Films" To the bartender for transferring Solomon's parcel to the mainland, one will be given to Caesar on Yantar after completing his task, another may be caught during the assault on the base on the AS, or near a dilapidated tunnel with psi and radiation zones, or from one of the military, it is advisable to search all the corpses . I start the search while still in the Monolith - in the Sarcophagus and in the Control Bunker there are a couple of boxes in which various artifacts can randomly fall out, from one I always knock out the “Crystal”, there is also a box in Pripyat behind a fence next to the future transition to the Swamps - this box I split the first race into snorkels because... the box usually does not survive until a later moment, the “Film” can be obtained through a cyclic quest from Sakharov - but it takes a long time and we will only get one “Film” at a time, another “Film” lies in the destroyed tunnel with the “Electras” on the DT;
- two "Golden Chunks" To the fan for the recipe, one will be in the Bar in a building with a door propped up by boxes, we climb from the roof through a hole, the second one will be found in the Landfill when we look for part of the minigun circuit, they are found on DT and on Yantar, we just get there later in the game;
- 5 bottles of vodka, 5 cans of canned food, 5 sausage sticks, 5 first aid kits- a parcel from the Informant to a group of diggers - needs to be handed over safely to Sviblov, when we approach the diggers they are all lying wounded, we don’t get carried away with treatment - we can overuse the first aid kits from the parcel, first we give the parcel, then if there are first aid kits left we can treat the wounded, they themselves they will heal each other;
- assault "Abakan"- the Prince asks for weed for the guard of the Svoboda gunsmith, he gets caught several times, the first time he is given out by General Voronin for helping to fight off a bandit attack on the first visit to the TD, a couple more times he can be randomly given out for clearing out mutants near X-18 and for nychka bandits, another one lies in the inspection hole of the garage at the DT, if, after all, there is not one left by the time the Prince asks for it, you can exchange it with Petrenko for two “Sea Urchins”, “Sea Urchins” can be randomly exchanged with Kruglov for " Heart of the Controller";
- monpatsier jar- one, the Monk will need on the AS for the quest for Borov’s PDA, search the corpses, caches may fall out, also on the corpses of military personnel you come across jars of Monpasier, Yarofeev has one;
- scientific suit of mercenaries and Storm for Lefty, the suit and Thunderstorm must be in good condition and in a single copy in the inventory, the extra ones can be thrown into the safe in the barracks where Lefty is standing, the scientific suit of mercenaries is first encountered in Pripyat, can be repaired by Mahon and taken with you, it can also fall out (if you’re lucky) of the mercenaries, when the Lefty is released, the suit and weapons should be repaired from merchants and not used, the slightest wear and Lefty won’t accept them, the mercenary scientist is also on sale at Borov;
- "Fiery soul"- Lefty will ask you to bring him for the gravity suit upgrade;
- "Mica", "Crystal", "Goldfish", "Soul", "Ruby Spring", "Flash"- Lefty will ask you to bring these six artifacts for the repair of the universal detector found in X-18 on the instructions of Fang;
- two "Fireballs"- Kruglova for marking a bag of grass, can be found at the DT in the tunnel with “Zharki”;
- "Crystal Soul of Bengal"- To the informant for identifying the location of Semetsky’s cache using an incomplete set of map fragments;
- two "Tears of the Chimera"- Informant for crossing Radar-TD;
- five "Cobblestones" or five "Bengal Crystal Souls"- to upgrade a nanosuit from Semetsky’s cache, before the upgrade you need to have one set of art, another needs to be laid out, then we put on the suit and the suit assimilates the corresponding artifacts, there are two “Cobblestones” in the cache;
- 3 burer hands, 3 cat tails, 3 poltergeist eyes and a "Ruby Battery"- The doctor in the finale will ask you to bring them, for them he will give passage from the Swamps to Pripyat.
Artifact "Heart of the Controller"
The results of Kruglov’s quest to find the “Heart of the Controller” are interesting. The first artifact must be found in the Agroprom swamp; we hang the detector that Kruglov gives on our belt. We save before entering the psi zone, enter the psi zone - the message “An artifact was found!” pops up. - we look for it, maybe either on the surface of the lake or in the trailer itself, if we haven’t found it, we reboot, the main thing is that the save is made before entering the psi zone and before the message about its discovery, the artifact may spawn somewhere in the wrong place, It's easy to search at night - the artifact glows. We take the found artifact to Kruglov and refuse the reward, take the detector instead of the reward - now you can look for the “Hearts of the Controllers” in other psi-zones. When you find it, a monster will appear, most often a controller; there are bloodsucker and burer. You can also search for other art by first saving before entering the psi zone. Once found, the psi zone degenerates and the next time you enter the location it will no longer be there. For the “Heart of the Controller” Kruglov can give you an elite anomaly detector - he will now always have this dialogue, be careful - do not type more of these tasks if you have already received the detector. Also, the “Heart of the Controller” will be needed by the Lector at the DT, for which he will give a tip on where to look for the “Snake Eyes”, the artifact with which we will find the “Klondike Artifacts”, should be in the inventory when we go to the TD in search of the Klondike.

Trade and repair
In the Secret Paths there are several merchants to whom you can sell unnecessary swag and buy supplies. They will buy from you cheaply and sell at a high price - many people do not like this situation, but Stalker is not an economic simulator, and money is not the main currency in the Zone. But you can exchange the necessary supplies and weapons from merchants for mutant art and spare parts. I will describe from whom what can be exchanged and for what. If I missed anything or saw an inaccuracy, please write to me in a personal message.

FAQ
- I can’t get into a cave (other hard-to-reach places) - use the full squat keys Ctrl+Shift , if you reassigned the keys, I advise you to reset the default settings and reassign without touching these keys.
- Health is decreasing, there are not enough first aid kits - high level of captured radiation, to see the level press the key TAB - a counter window appears in the lower right corner with the numbers of accumulated radiation, the scale shows whether the GG is in the radioactive zone or has left it, the dosimeter should be on the belt, above 600 the health level quickly begins to decrease until death. We use radiation artifacts correctly and hang them on our belts; with high levels of captured radiation, you can replay from earlier saves and try not to fall into areas of increased radiation. Using one anti-rad reduces the level by 20-30 units, slightly reduces the health level and requires jamming.
- Double vision, but health and radiation levels are normal - GG hasn’t slept for a long time, it’s not advisable to lay out your sleeping bag, it doesn’t disappear during robberies just like the dosimeter, it’s available for sale at many merchants.
- Where is the decoder in the Sarcophagus on the assignment to shoot the burers - the decoder can also lie in any place, but no further than two rooms located above each other on the lower level of the Sarcophagus.
- I can't find a box of canned goods on Solomon's instructions - a box with canned goods in Update can be located in any of the two grocery stores in any place, look carefully, look into all the nooks and crannies.
- Where to find the folder for the Informant - the folder for the Informant at the Svoboda base in Update can be located in various places, the places found so far are located along the railway tracks, we look into all secluded places, carriages, under beams and destroyed buildings.
- Where is the bag of grass for the Prince on the AC - also in various places, Kruglov can put a mark on the bag with the exact location for two “Fire Balls”.
- I can't find three helmets for St. John's wort - look into all the concrete rings, including broken ones, if you still haven’t found them, then most likely they were picked up by Phantoms that are lying in ambush there, search the corpses immediately - then they will disappear.
- How to get into the courtyard of the plant on Yantar on Caesar's instructions - Caesar gives you a suit with good protection from radiation, we put it on and hang on the belt artefacts that remove radiation, it is better to remove those inducing radiation, be sure to remove ruby artefacts - they are not just radioactive - but also accelerate the accumulation of radiation. Particularly useful art here will be the “Symbions” - they add protection to the suit from radiation. We go beyond the swamp and the helicopter, approach the border of the slope and the wall of the plant - here there will be a radiation barrier that must be overcome without stopping, save in case of a replay with a high level of captured radiation, then we go along the outer part of the location and go around the plant building from the north side, we go into the courtyard - poltergeists are flying there, we look for what Caesar is looking for and return back the same way; back we also need to overcome the radiation barrier.
- I can't get close to the Magician - carefully read the dialogue with the Ghost, the teleport outside the boundaries of the game part of the location is located in the garages, the return teleport is located near the garages from the outside.
- The weapon doesn't fire - a fuse has been introduced in the Update - switch with the “0” and “9” keys.

DESCRIPTION:
The "Secret Paths 2" mod is based on the "Secret Paths" addon. TT2 is a new backstory to the original Shadows of Chernobyl. A new storyline that intertwines with the quests already known from TT, and which reveals more deeply the reason for the appearance of the main character in the Zone. The main goal that faces him is now quite specific and clear. Quests that were known from NS5 and TT have undergone a lot of changes. Supplemented and adjusted in order to correct a lot of errors and plot gaps, as well as to more fully reveal the main storyline.
Secret Paths 2
New design: updated main menu and updated hud, new loading screens, new inventory icons, musical content of the game (compositions and fragments of music used: Clint Mansell, Marylin Manson, Sting, Nancy Synatra, Camel, Linda Perry, Doors, Soungarden, Tito & Tarantula, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, King Crimson, Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Finch, M, 5"nizza, Morcheeba, Paul Mauriat, Mireille Mathieu, Aria, Auction and many others). Almost all quest NPCs have been voiced, voice-over monologues have been added.
A large number of new characters have been added: new monsters, objects and items. Three new factions: Nomads, Peacekeepers and Hunters. Electro-Chimera has been replaced with the new "Bald Chimera". The merchants have been changed: Borov is in charge of the Bar, the Bartender is in charge of the Cordon, Sidorovich (just preparing to become an influential merchant) is located in a village not far from the Peacekeeping Corps. But during the course of the plot, everything will change and the traders will take their “rightful” places, having previously agreed and carried out one “grand” business, which will subsequently change a lot in the Zone. The Dolgovites will certainly occupy the Bar, driving out the brothers from there, although it will not be easy, the help of the GG will be necessary. This will be a condition for the correct passage of the plot. The ending is handled completely differently. The game now has three endings. Correct (conditionally correct) - one. It won't be easy to get through.
Added 4 new locations: Dead City, Forest, Swamps, Peacekeeping Corps. Transitions between levels, the so-called "Secret Paths", are unstable. There will be a large number of them, but, as a rule, the Paths will lead only in one direction; the way back will have to be sought or received from the plot characters. Some stable crossings are only in the inhabited part of the Zone (Bar-Svalka-Agroprom-TD-Kordon), as well as Pripyat-Chaes.
The vast majority of quest items known from TT are hidden in other places. Now we have to look for everything again.
New weapons and artifacts have been added. The subject environment has also expanded.
The music in the Bar has been changed. Added Sweepstakes - you can “rise” well in the monetary sense. In order to place a bet you need to talk to the Bookmaker. The probability of winning (as in real sweepstakes and other lotteries) is random.
Read the dialogues and SMS messages carefully - a lot of “tips” will be given there, a lot of useful and necessary information that is not indicated in the tasks.
Hood and radiation
In order for the radiation scale to function in the new hood, you need to hang a dosimeter on your belt, which is present immediately in the Main Character’s starter kit. Subsequently, you need to make sure that this device does not disappear from your inventory and is not removed from your belt. If you suddenly lose your dosimeter, it is sold from traders. In the new hud, tasks are displayed on the screen in the form of SMS messages (there are no more large letters in the center of the screen displaying the received task), be careful, do not rush. And another point was noticed that until the dosimeter was hung on the belt for the first time, grenades were not picked up. As soon as they hung it for the first time, everything was fine with the grenades. Hang it right away.
About radiation:
1) The unit of measurement of accumulated radiation dose is Roentgen, or Rem.
2) The dosimeter shows the background level around the player with an arrow.
3) Radioactive artifacts are also detected by a dosimeter when worn on the belt.
4) There are non-lethal levels of radiation.
5) One Antirad does not remove all radiation, but about 20 - 25 Roentgen.
6) Artifacts that remove radiation remove the accumulated dose. But antirad is still more effective.
7) The dose of radiation is eliminated on its own over time, but very slowly.
8) When 150 R is accumulated, stamina begins to deteriorate - it is spent faster and restored more slowly.
9) When 300 R are accumulated, psi-health begins to deteriorate, not completely, but very noticeably. It is necessary to reduce the radiation dose to an acceptable level (less than 300 R) and psychic health will return to normal in the near future.
10) Also, from 300 R, health begins to deteriorate, its maximum level drops. This is not fatal, but it makes playing while irradiated more difficult.
When 600 R are accumulated, radiation becomes lethal - health gradually decreases to zero, there is no lower health limit. With further accumulation of the dose, the rate of decline in health increases, an irreversible process occurs.
Possible problems
Crashes are possible at large locations, as well as when moving from location to location. Lowering the graphics settings helps in this case. When you crash while moving to another location, the autosave, as a rule, remains working. Just load the autosave and that's it. In the Forest, it is possible to crash during the second or third attack of the controller, in this case it is advisable to quickly send the controller to the controller's paradise.
1) It is advisable not to use a “quick save”, but to save through the menu or console, in order to avoid breaking saves. Make saves before moving to the next location just in case.
2) To remove the swaying of the camera when walking, you need in the file: user. find the line alphabetically: cam_inert and set the value to 0. By default it is 0.7.
ATTENTION
»»» It is imperative that immediately, when starting a new game, you need to hang a dosimeter on your belt; without it, the radiation scale will not be displayed and grenades will not be picked up. There should only be one dosimeter in your inventory!
»»» Most weapons have the safety on, in order to remove them we press the numbers

From the conversation we understand that we need to move away from the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, but the path through the Radar is blocked by radiation. But you can leave through ATP. The Ghost asks to find documents in the Control Bunker that indicate the transition to the ATP.
3. Breaking through the Monolith checkpoints, we head to the Control Bunker. At the entrance to Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant-2 we are not greeted in the best way and all our swag is taken away. We speak with Solomon, take the barrel and kill the enemies.
4. After the shootout, we go to the Control Bunker, find secret drawings there and go back to Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant-2. We see Solomon and talk with him. Along the way, you can take on a task to transport a parcel to the “Mainland”.

And even before talking with Fang, it is advisable to make a big save, since subsequent saves in Pripyat will not work.
6. We reach the five-story building, which is the second to last one, to the left of the alley. We wait for Fang, after which we talk with him. He says that the Phantom forgot to give us something. We return to the Ghost and get the Gravity Cannon, as well as army first aid kits.

Advice - in this quest it is advisable to be light in order to quickly get to the bloodsucker, otherwise he will be killed. You should also know that when you fight off a bloodsucker from wild boars, it can attack you too. But after the destruction of the boars, Kiryusha will become neutral.

12. Heading to Bar. At the entrance we are greeted by a guard of honor, we pay him money and go to the Bartender. During the conversation, he says that a certain Count has some work to do. Advice - you shouldn’t fight with bandits, because an impressive part of the quests are located in the Bar.
13. We go to the building where Arnie was in the original and find the Count. We talk with him, take on the task of searching for weapons and documents.
14. We go to the southern checkpoint of Bar, jump over the fence on the right and follow the map to Yantar. We reach the road, see a crowd of snorks - we destroy them. Then at the end of the unfinished road we find two boxes and a white case - we take all of them.
15. We give what we found to the Count and keep one cannon as a reward. Next we receive the task of finding the Prince. But before you go to him, you need to find a cache of weapons in the Army Warehouses.
16. We go to the Army Warehouses, near the transition to the Radar, behind the hill we find a helicopter, and under it a box with a cannon. We're heading to Radar. There, following a tip, we find the Prince and give him the gun.
17. We take the task from him to search for documents. We go to the Army Warehouses, to the north of the location. Using boulders we move to inaccessible territory. Next we go south towards the transition to the Bar and find two boxes and a case on the ground.
18. We take everything from them and go to the Bar. There we give the found documents to the Count, and as a reward we are left with a weapon.

We take on a task from him to search for a folder with documents. We head to the Svoboda base, find a folder there, and then give it to the Informant.
21. We receive a task to eliminate the super bloodsucker. Also, his corpse must be delivered to Sviblov. We go to the mark on the map and find the bloodsucker. Indeed, he is almost unkillable, but only almost. Somehow we kill the bloodsucker and drag him to Sviblov. Advice - in this situation the Gravity Cannon can be very helpful. It is easy to carry the monster's corpse to its destination.
22. We bring the body into the house, after which we talk with Sviblov. We receive a task to find a thief. We go into the forest, use the map to enter the zone, receive an SMS and wait. As soon as we receive an SMS about the elimination of the thief, we do it. The main thing is not to let him run away from you.
23. We report to Sviblov. Next, we take on the task of searching for the system manager and documents in X-10. We go to the laboratory, clear out the mutants there, find the system unit and documents. After which we get out to the Radar. We speak with Sviblov and receive a recipe as a reward.
24. We remember the penultimate conversation with Sviblov, we approach the Wanderer. We tell him about the amulet we found and get tips on where to look for the other five pieces...
Chapter 3. Further adventures
1. We go to Yantar, bypassing the Wild Territory. We shoot all the evil spirits on it. When we arrive at Yantar, we can take several tasks - from Kruglov and Sakharov. We take two tasks: 1) mark unique monsters; 2) find the artifact "Heart of the Controller". We also learn that you can’t get into the X-16 without protection.
2. After we go back to the Wild Territory, we go to the helicopter. There we find a unique pseudo-giant and mark it with a rifle. We don't kill the monster itself.
3. Let's go to the Landfill. At the entrance, at the checkpoint, we destroy all the bandits. We are heading towards the Dark Valley. At the entrance, an SMS comes from Voronin asking for help in dealing with the bandits. We do this, after which we talk with Voronin.
4. We receive a task to clear the area of mutants. We go to the plant and destroy all the evil spirits. We report to Voronin and receive a task to search for a bandit cache.
5. First, we need to find the bandit Zhila, who knows where the cache is. We go to a small swamp, near the factory. We find Zhila and talk to him. He doesn’t just give away information about the cache; in return, he wants Voronin’s people to give him “roof” in their camp.
6. We run to Voronin, we get consent. We return to Gilet and talk about the general’s consent. In return, we receive information about the location of the cache. Next, on the roof of the factory we find a cache. Advice - it is advisable to run to the cache on a light vehicle, as it contains several machine guns and cartridges.
7. At the same time, on the territory of the factory, we will complete Sakharov’s task - to put a tag on the Electrochimera. However, some people have difficulties. With them, it is enough to simply wound the electrochimera well from any weapon and the task will be updated.
8. We go to Voronin and give back the ammunition found in the cache. Next we go to Colonel Petrenko. We take from him the task of destroying the “Swamp Crawlers”. We find creatures in the swamp and kill them. We report to Petrenko and receive a reward.
9. We leave the Dark Valley to the Landfill, and then head to the Cordon. At the entrance we meet the wounded Tolik and treat him. We agree to take him to the camp. Advice - it is strongly recommended to clear the area around the checkpoint where Tolik was found.
10. We bring the stalker to the camp and receive a reward from the Wolf. After that, we run to the farm, which is behind the embankment, and put a mark on the bloodsucker according to Sakharov’s instructions.
11. We return to the Wolf. We receive the task of taking ammunition from the Wolf’s cache in order to recapture the village from the bandits. We go to the house, clear out the pseudo-dogs and take everything from the hiding place. We take the PDA to the Wolf, after which we distribute guns to everyone who is in the camp.
12. After this, we talk to Fang and go to storm the village. It is important that the Fan does not die during the massacre. After clearing the village, we speak with the Wolf again and receive a reward. We can also take a task from the Fan to find two “Golden Chunks”.
13. We stomp to Sidorovich. If you have the necessary artifacts, we give them to the merchant, and in return he will forward the parcel according to the quest from Solomon. We also talk with Sidor about work. He talks about some documents from laboratories that need to be found. He gives a tip to Varyag, who apparently knows where the documents are.
14. We go to Agroprom. At the entrance we receive an SMS asking for help. We go to the central complex, find Bes there and agree to recapture Lefty. Together with Mole and Bes, we head to the western complex, after which we clear out all the mercenaries. Advice - it is recommended to clear the western complex immediately upon arrival at Agroprom, to avoid casualties from the Bes team.
15. After this we talk to the Demon, we receive a reward. We can also take a task from him to exchange rifles. We find Lefty and talk to him about Lukash. But Lefty needs good equipment - Thunderstorm and a mercenary scientific suit. These tasks will be available if you took the task from Lukash to find Lefty.
16. On Kruglov’s instructions, we go to the swamp, put the detector in the slot and find the artifact. After which we fight off the controllers and go towards the underground hatch into the Agroprom catacombs.
17. We go down into the dungeon and find Varyag there. Information can only be obtained if you go through the “Four Circles of Hell”. We hand over all the ammunition to Varyag and are left with only a knife and binoculars.
18. Our task is to reach the checkpoint in the dungeon - it is located near the second exit. We do this, after which we return to Varyag. Similarly, you need to go through three more circles. Advice - before giving away all your things, it is better to hide them in some drawer.
19. After this we talk with Varyag. He partially gives away the ammunition, after which we ask about the laboratories. We receive a tip on Major Yarofeev.
20. We go to the Cordon to the checkpoint. There we find Yarofeev and ask about the documents. We find out everything we need, after which we eliminate the military man and take all the useful items from his corpse.
21. An SMS arrives from Sidorovich, let’s go to him. We find out that the documents may be in the X-16 laboratory. Afterwards, they must be given to Fang at the Army Warehouses. We also find out that the Count was looking for us.
22. Let's go to the Bar to see the Count. He reports that Caesar has shown up and is waiting for us on Yantar, but before we go we need to find his flash drives - there are three of them. In the “backyard” of the Bar we find three backpacks with flash drives in them.
23. We go to Yantar and give the flash drives to Caesar. We receive from him the task of finding the third part of the documents. We get the Pegasus jumpsuit and go outside the factory gates. There we find a container and take all the things from it.
24. We return to Caesar and give the documents and overalls. After this, Caesar deciphers the remaining code and asks to transfer the PDA with the code and documents to the Count. But we are not in a hurry to go to the Bar.
25. We give Kruglov the “Heart of the Controller” found at Agroprom, and we report to Sakharov on the completion of the task on the marks of monsters. We also learn that there is strong radiation in the laboratory and the prototype can be modified by a crazy professor. But he escaped... The only tip was Sviblov.
26. You can also take the task from Sakharov to eliminate the traitor - the associate professor. We go to Dan, ask him about the assistant professor, we find out that he will fly to the mainland in the Dark Valley. There it must be eliminated.
27. We go to Radar to Sviblov. We learn that the crazy professor is hiding in X-10. But first he must be pacified - with a tranquilizer. We follow him back to Yantar to Kruglov. He simply does not give the tranquilizer, he asks to give the parcel to Voronin.
28. Let's go to the Bar to see the Count.
Answers to frequently asked questions
Where to look for the transition from Sarcophagus to Chernobyl NPP-2?
Go to the hall with the Wish Granter. After you climb out of the reactor hole, turn back and see the stairs to the top. After you climb, follow the iron structure (the Wish Granter will be on the left) to the end. Then go through the gap into the right hall and go to the very end - there will be a transition there.
Where to look for snorks at Chernobyl NPP-2?
Snorks appear in two places: 1. to the west of the Monolith camp; 2. in the east of the Station.
Look at the roofs - they love to jump on them.
Where to look for the third case for Solomon at Chernobyl NPP-2?
Go to the first teleport (in the original after leaving the Monolith Control), go into it and climb the stairs to the top, then go to where the Monoliths were in the original. There's a case against the wall.
Where to look for a box of canned food in Pripyat?
It lies in the left grocery store, under the stairs.
Where can I find documents for the Ghost in Monolith Management?
If you start from the transition point from the Sarcophagus (in the original stalker), then leave the room and turn right into the corridor. Before reaching the grate, turn left into the room with the tank. There will be documents behind it.
How to get to the bandit checkpoint in a bar if you don’t have money?
1. You can go to AC or other open areas and complete character tasks for which you will be paid.
2. But you can use a loophole. It is enough to climb into an inaccessible part of the Bar... After leaving the boundaries of the game Bar, approach the checkpoint as usual and look at the reaction of the bandits; if they turn red and start making mischief, it means you, a free rider, were noticed while you were wandering around the Bar and it is better to replay, because it won't lead to anything good.
Where to look for boxes with weapons and documents for the Count?
Bare. We go out to the southern bandit checkpoint, jump over the fence on the right and head along the map to Yantar. We reach the end of the road and find boxes.
Where to look for the Prince's cache in the Army Warehouses?
Near the Barrier, behind the hill we find a helicopter - right under it lies a box.
Where to look for Prince on Radar?
In a nook in the northeast of the location. In Solyanka there was still a passage to the Dark Valley.
Where to look for the Informant?
It is located in the Army Warehouses, not far from the mercenary checkpoint, in a house. In the original there was also a quest for the traitor Pavlik.
Where can I find the folder for the Informant?
At the Army Depots, at the Liberty base, in a booth near the tunnel.
Where on AS can I look for documents based on a tip from the Prince?
If you look at the map, this place is just above the transition to Bar. The place itself is located outside the accessible part of the location. To get to it, just climb the boulders, which are located in the north of the Army Warehouses.
Where to look for documents and systems in X-10?
The system unit is located in the hall, in front of the stairs to the lower level. By the way, this hall can be seen through the gap in the first room, after going to the laboratory.
The documents are in the last room, behind the tank, in front of the hall with the switch.
Where in Bar to look for backpacks with flash drives for Caesar?
Right behind the fence in Bar, next to the "active zone" where you can walk. As you leave the 100 X-ray bar, turn left into the hangar and go straight, there will be a lattice fence ahead, and you should look behind it.
You can get there by jumping over the “thorn” just short of the southern bandit checkpoint (if you go from the Landfill).
Where to look for the container from the 3rd helicopter for Caesar?
Behind the gate right next to the entrance to X-16.
Where on DT to look for Bioradar based on a tip from Lefty?
As Lefty said, you should look in a small outbuilding, near the unfinished house (where the mercenaries are sitting).
Where can I get two “Golden Chunks” for a Fan?
Purely by chance I found just two artifacts in the Wild Territory, near the crashed helicopter.
Small tips for passing:
Search for Semetsky's hiding place
In New Plot 5 there is a branch of quests to find Semetsky’s hiding place.
The task is to collect 8 fragments of the cache location map. To collect them requires attentiveness and leisurely passage.
You can also gain access to the cache in the second way: buy information from one of the quest NPCs (not for free, of course), having several fragments available (the eighth and fourth are definitely needed).
But it’s more interesting, of course, to find all the fragments yourself. After accepting the task, the fragments will not be displayed in the inventory, but a section will appear in the PDA where information about the found fragments will be displayed.
If fragments are found before taking the buildings, they will be displayed in the inventory. After taking the task, they will disappear from there and, as I already said, a section will appear in the PDA.
Map fragments:
1) One fragment (the first), along with the task itself, is given by the quest stalker. The character will appear after a conversation with the bandit leader, who will give him a quest.
2) From one of the bandits in the TD during one of Voronin’s quests.
3) From one of the mercenaries. Appears after taking the task from Bes to take 2 guns to Petrenko.
5) During the task of eliminating traitor scientists in the TD.
6) From a bandit, during a robbery.
7) One of the mercenaries while protecting Fang in the warehouses.
8) From one of the Monoliths (this is the last fragment), when we find ourselves in a certain place on the instructions of Fang.
As a result, we get a mark on Semetsky’s hiding place on the Radar.
Let's go there and pick up the good things.
Search for PDA for Bartender
Passage order:
1) The bartender gives a task - to find the PDA (we are looking for a courier in the Dark Valley).
2) The PDA was taken from the courier by bandits and hidden. The courier reports this after his rescue.
3) When you try to search, there is an explosion. The PDA has been destroyed. The bartender calls back. After talking with him (the Bartender), you need to find a copy of the information.
4) For a copy, go to the Ghost. The Phantom does not have a copy. He sends to Fang.
5) The fang is nowhere to be found. And here Sidor is an important character.
6) Sidor Sends to Varyag. Varyag sends to Major.
7) After talking with the Major, be sure to go to Sidor.
8) Sidor sends to X-16 (Yantar) and asks that the docks found there be given to Fang.
9) To take the docks from X-16, you need to find the diary of a crazy professor on Sakharov’s instructions. This time. Then, in the X-16 itself you need to find documents or some other information.
10) And, voila! We go to Fang, and the mercenaries attack him. We protect Fang. He takes the information obtained from X-16 and gives a task to search for information in X-18.
11) But we still need a copy of the information from Fang for the Bartender. She (info) is in the Fang PDA. In Fang, this dialogue is present as soon as we address it. That is, two quest branches appear. We are looking for PDA in the village of bloodsuckers, in a house with a teleport, following a tip from Fang. The monk who appears in the village of bloodsuckers will help you find Fang’s PDA, since you can’t just get into the house - the teleport throws you out. We follow the instructions from the Monk and give the PDA to the Bartender.
12) Then (or before, it doesn’t matter), we go to X-18 and take the information (you’ll find out from whom there).
13) We take what we found to Fang. He asks to take both finds to Sidor to the Cordon.
14) Sidor takes these things and sends them to the Doctor in Pripyat (but first he must act as a guide for one foreigner).
Artifact Transmutation Recipes
New Plot 5 (from its very appearance) contains absolutely all the recipes for transmuting artifacts that were in the base AMK 1.4.1 mod. The author of New Plot 5 laid out and distributed these recipes differently than they are found in AMK v1.4.1. Finding several recipes can be difficult due to their “hidden” location or complicated method of obtaining/finding. Therefore, I will write here about 5 recipes that cause (according to users on the forum) the greatest difficulties:
1) Diamond Kolobok is one of the first recipes that can be obtained in the game. Located in the "hole" in the Sarcophagus. It’s not easy to find, since this “little hole” is not on the quest route of the main character.
2) Symbion - located in the “hole” in the X-18 laboratory (for a hint: raise your head higher, as there may be consequences from the Burer’s activity).
3) Snotty Porcupine - located in a well-hidden "hole" in the x-10 laboratory on the Radar.
4) A complex recipe for 4 transmutations based on the Dummy - in the hole in the laboratory x-16 (for a hint: raise your head higher, as there may be consequences from the activity of the Burers).
5) Steel Gingerbread Man - can be obtained at the very beginning of the game for Chaes - 2, if you manage to save one “infidel” from Solomon’s people.
Search for Amulets
In “Secret Paths” there is a task to find six Amulets, by collecting which we obtain an Amulet-Talisman with unique protective properties. We receive the task from the Wanderer on the Radar.
1) We remove the first Amulet from the thief’s neck (automatically appears in the inventory) even before receiving the task itself.
2) The second one is lying on the ground in a secluded place in the Army Warehouses in the village.
3) The third in the corpse of an experienced Digger. Digger's corpse appears after accepting the task to find parts of the Minigun assembly manual from Mechanic Potapov. He will tell you approximately where to look for the corpse.
4) The fourth Amulet is lying on the ground in X-16 in a sufficiently lit place. GG in the direction of movement will be literally a meter from the Amulet. Just look carefully at your feet and to the sides.
5) The fifth is in Semetsky’s hiding place.
6) The sixth in the inventory of one quest character who will need to be eliminated on the task. You won't pass by him.
As soon as all six Amulets have been collected, a transformation process will immediately occur (automatically), as a result of which the Amulet-Talisman will appear, and all collected Amulets will disappear.
