If you’re looking to carry extra gear and run further in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, the Maximum Endurance artifact is your best bet. Here’s how to locate this legendary item without risking unnecessary radiation damage.
The artifact lies near the Malachite zone, close to a base with a distinct entrance surrounded by lightning anomalies. After passing the gate, head right and proceed cautiously—bolts will help you navigate the anomalies safely. Once inside, search for the artifact’s telltale glow and hum. Equipping an upgraded detector like the Bear Detector will make pinpointing it easier. Use the artifact sparingly in low-radiation areas, as its effects come with a high radiation toll.
Key Tips:
- Keep bolts ready to avoid anomaly damage.
- Equip it only when extra stamina is essential to conserve health.
- Consider pairing it with protective gear to counteract radiation.
