Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is packed with mysteries and challenges. One intriguing spot is the Bulba anomaly, located just east of Zissa, the first major settlement. Here’s how to snag the artifact known as the Weird Ball without getting sucked into danger.
The Bulba anomaly behaves like a giant breathing creature. It exhales and inhales, creating a powerful suction. If you get caught in it, you’re done for. So, how do you approach this tricky situation?
- Look for cover such as trucks, rocks, or vans near Bulba. These will act as shields between you and the anomaly.
- Wait for Bulba to exhale. Dash toward the center where the artifact lies.
- The suction can be fierce. You need to be quick but careful.
- Once you reach the artifact, snatch it up quickly.
- As you exit, you’ll need stamina to fight against the suction. Keep sprinting toward safety while maintaining cover.
The Weird Ball is a legendary item mentioned in campfire stories by stalkers. It’s a child’s ball that feels heavier than it looks. When equipped, it reduces bullet damage, especially when you stand still during combat. Navigating the Bulba anomaly requires patience and strategy. With the right approach, you can successfully retrieve the Weird Ball artifact and enhance your gameplay experience in Stalker 2.
