Top 10 Best Weapons & How To Get Them ASAP in STALKER 2

[@Astrosive]

This video came out WAY longer than I intended because of all the attachments and blueprint locations but there are chapters you can skip around with

[@patrikantony379]

Hunter sniper only for deluxe edition

[@tastychemicals7830]

How the f do you have that many coupons. I'm stuck at just over 50k. I'm like 4 main mission from the end of the game

[@hoverbike]

how is it so hard for people to figured out how to pronounce kharod? hah-rod put it into google translate, select ukrainian, and have it correct it to харод, now have it read it aloud for you i instinctively knew it, i mean, you didn't expect the name of the gun to be english, did you?

[@Hanz_Goober]

Tip for the kharod, or any gun that you get from the Arena side quest in Rostok. When you complete a round in an arena, before going back into the room where you have to give the guard your stuff, drop the gun at the door, and push it with your body collision, over to where the safe is that you retrieve your items. You can then pick it up, and it won't be taken out of your inventory. You can get a free kharod and M701

[@ivanleonov4579]

To elaborate on that, what you need to do is cross the doorway to the safe, since there is a point which wipes your items, but only once, so walk through the doorway towards your safe, and then go back and pick up the stuff you dropped

[@Krenisphia]

I love the things gamers do just to cheat the system. Such a human nature. I did it too instinctively before I even looked it up LOL.

[@HudsonLambert-x8q]

If they don’t spawn they mite be in the room were you start the next round

[@HudsonLambert-x8q]

Here’s a full detailed tutorial ( I tipped all of this thinks I was the only one who knew this then saw your comment 😂) You can get a free rhino and many armours a kharod and others is during the arena missions before leaving drop the gear you want to keep into the room were you get the gear to do this stand as close do the door way as you can then drop the items then speak to the npc there pick them items up again then repeat the steps on the next door pick the gear up then place it in the safe and it’s yours I’ve tried and done this several times and it works on most recent patch’s you only need to complete up to the scircca missions to fully finish the arena missions if they don’t appear after dropping the first time go back to were you start the next round and the may be there if not reload a save and try again

[@cainwallace]

I did this and didnt even know it was a known exploit lol

[@biznisman7049]

You can get Mark I EMR with the scope and bunch of bullets on the top of the watch tower in Chemical Plant, where they have 3-4 watch towers in the base, it is on one of them(PS: not in the WARD BASE, on the other side of Chemical plant over the bridge), The place is called: ARMY WAREHOUSES to be precise. There are normal watch towers and one where you can find the EMR has no roof has some kind of pointy antenna. I explain it like this, so you dont have to go up and down, up and down and again and again and again. The one with the weapon is one and only, so it is on top of the roofless one, a big pointy antenna. PEACE OUT...

[@wiej007]

Kharod and Dnipro got nice statistics and I think I know why people argue about them. They got maybe almost the same stats exept one that is not shown. The ammo spread. I tested it and looks like Kharod got lower ammo spread so its more acurate while Dnipro maybe got little bit higher dmg but ammo spread still sometimes force you to shoot more bullets.

[@IAm-uu8vu]

You can get the saiga extended magazine way earlier at the "bread factory." It is up on some vents. You can basically go there right at the beginning.

[@tabascowkasku5709]

Have to check that

[@Arohit-fo6cd]

Kharod, in perfect condition, can be found in the dam in Yantar.

[@docinsensitive]

As a tip for Clusterf*ck, you can do the side quests right away, but the part where you get the Three Captains quest only comes up after mission 15 or 16 of the main missions

[@cahsahhhhhhhn]

I got it right before the Swamp in Ad Astra Per Aspera

[@Seabass2478]

I finished this game in 150hours, ive explored all locations and beat game (ward ending) and there is still loots that dont show up on ur map as a loot area. Theres so much detail to this game that im looking forward to redo this whole game after the bugs and fixes make this game alot better. I went from ak to m4 to kahord. I always carried a shotgun up saiga and added a sniper up until a got the guass gun. The guass gun was the best weapon in the game for end game missons.

[@johnlombardo7816]

I'm still only 30 hours in and yeah I can tell replay factor is like prey or metro exodus for sure, so many other paths and timing. I notice on some options chosen in conversation it will not really prompt if that last answer makes up the path like most kind of do, I denied the ward unintentionally but happy about my choice ! 😂 had watched Brian Menard go with the ward and I prefer my path but two totally different outcomes

[@XdeltaX-h5k]

0:39 finally a game that call of duty jump shoting comes in handy 😂😂

[@lowfat_booger1929]

Thanks, big daddy always delivers the biggest of packages.

[@UruguayOC]

man thank you very much for taking the time to make this great video!

[@woolenthreads]

"Three Captains" also needs to have the "Find a Guide to the Swamps" Main Mission completed as well as Sultan and Beards two side-missions. The Kharod is also locked behind a door at the Yantar Dam. A RAM2 is available doing Doctor Viktorias Black Sheep Mission at the back of a safe stash There's a Dnipro at the Fire Whirl Anomaly the Cooling Towers area at the top of the Cooling Tower accessible by teleport. The Kriss Vector is the Integral A in S2HOC. The Saiga in Yantar can be shot off the vehicle

[@HudsonLambert-x8q]

You can get a free rhino and many armours a kharod and others is during the arena missions before leaving drop the gear you want to keep into the room were you get the gear to do this stand as close do the door way as you can then drop the items then speak to the npc there pick them items up again then repeat the steps on the next door pick the gear up then place it in the safe and it’s yours I’ve tried and done this several times and it works on most recent patch’s you only need to complete up to the scircca missions to fully finish the arena missions if they don’t appear after dropping the first time go back to were you start the next round and the may be there if not reload a save and try again.

[@kjj3rd272]

You can get a kharod at the dam in yantar, there's a stash that requires a code and beyond the door is the gun and some ammo

[@Penitten]

I haven't reached Rostok yet and suddenly had almost maxed out my weight limit all of a sudden. Turned out, due to a bug, two EMR's, one SVU and one M701 spawned in my inventory. I guess, that's another way to get all the guns😂

[@KlapstoelmuziekEnjoyer]

You can get the saiga pretty early in the game. In the mission where you blow up a cave full of snorks together with some other dude. The "other dude" gets attacked by a snork and drops his saiga. that's where you can pick it up.

[@Killswtich1349]

To the south of the area that the dead body is located in the chasm you can find a 100% kaharod in a little bunker off the side of a cliff you need to jump off the bus into the anomaly

[@hun8978]

I just kind of want to put this out there if you put ap. Rounds, in anything and aim for the head. It's gonna kill it, but if you want to get bent up on the logistics of doing body shots, then you do you bubble boo. But when you take into comparison, which gun is better, maybe look into what attachments you can put on there. This hole puncher with the cow rod with the silencer has gotten me through. I don't know, like 70 80% of the game.

[@RJ-pb1qx]

The problem with the 7.62 ammo for the dnipro is that no one sells it and you have to find it in the open world and if you cant find it, you cant use the gun.

[@HUKIT.]

I think the only advantage of the Kharod is the Holemaker shotgun attachment hitch allows you to carry a rifle, a shotgun, and a sniper rifle.

[@Oleksiy-Ziuzko]

You can actually find Dnipro in the cooling towers region. It’s near the fire tornado. You can go into portal and get the gun. It’s much easier to get them going to the red forest Also, you didn’t mention that you can get an extended 20 rounds mag for the gauss gun (or maybe skipped it but it’s not on chapter select of the video)

[@dpounder101]

you can get armor piercing ammo in both 9x19 and 9x18 and its barely worth using because of the extra wear and tear compared to the damage difference.

[@johnlombardo7816]

Great video thanks!

[@Inshokuten69]

Have they fixed the stats on the unique guns? Wasn't the weapon stats datamined and pretty much across the board the unique version of weapons were all worse than the base versions?

[@morpheus_uat]

rhino, saika-D12 and some automatic submachine gun, i dont know, i constantly change my main weapon, but my trusty saikad12 and rhino never leave my hip, excep when hunting ;)

[@wreckedsine7453]

For the guy at the Chasm, Java had the Khorod, Rhino, and RAM-7. All in decently good condition too I accidentally sold the extended mag for the Khorod...had it on a Fora-221, didn't like it...sold it with the extended mag on it. So it's probably gone for good now

[@HUKIT.]

That’s why I wish there were unique versions available for each weapon(like Fallout)as I’ve done the same thing not realizing I sold it with attachments.

[@wreckedsine7453]

@HUKIT. Either way, it's no sweat off my back. It's an accident. Accidents happen. I just got super spoiled on the Clusterf--- with it's ability to kill enemies so easily that I actually hated the Fora-221. I just hate how the Clusterf--- wants to d-- in your hands each time you pick it up. It's both my favorite, and least favorite rifle...also why does it cost 30,000 coupons to repair it!?!? Next time, I'm gonna keep the Drown AK from in front of Garbage.

[@S4D53X]

Dnipro + SAIGA=ComboWombo

[@tabascowkasku5709]

I like Kharod more instead of Dnipro, rocking rhino as sidearm and works like a charm

[@kittyb992]

Early in the video, you mentioned that SMGs are better than assault rifles and I kinda raised an eyebrow. Based on the in-game stat cards, assault rifles beat out SMGs almost every time for damage/penetration (except the Spitter). I went and looked at the actual gun-stats that were datamined and those also reflect the same. My real question is: how are SMGs better, and what would be your recommendations for SMGs to try?

[@RoyHess666]

I'd always prefer the Saiga over any the Ram or Texan, their reloading speed is just awful. As of overall weapon. I like to use the Ratkiller a lot, and after that the Clusterfuck.

[@thenombinary9099]

learn to top up the mag vs use every round, the reload isn't bad its a dual tube fed shotgun

[@RoyHess666]

@@thenombinary9099 imagine fighting one or two pseudogigants that simply survive the 14 rounds of a ram or texan when playing veteran and then sit there, reloading for a decade or so. The Saiga simply has higher DPS if you do the numbers.

[@giggitygooquag]

AP Zubr beats them all cause it can 1 shot just about every human enemy on a headshot only drawback is keeping stock of the ammo. #2 is definitely dnipro and both should be paired with the saiga with absolutely no reason to use another type of gun until they fix enemies targeting you from 100m away then maybe switch out the rifles with Whip most likely for a good close/long range balance but again ammo becomes an issue but in doing this you wont need to carry a 3rd weapon to cut your carry capacity

[@luciusnetheril]

Dnipro vs Kharod depends on your play style. On paper, Dnipro is the winner, but Kharod takes underbarel attachments, like grenade launcher and the shotgun. The shotgun attachment is great, coz it has no durability. As for unique Rhino vs regular one, it does wears down slightly faster, but it has lower base weight than the regular one. Ram-2 vs Saiga is a difference between hip fire and ADS. Ram-2/Texan has higher base damage(Texan even higher), than Saiga and once you put all the upgrades into lowering bullet spread, Ram-2 becomes the most accurate hip fire shotgun in the game, allowing you to one shot EXOs while hipfiring. On the other hand, Saiga, once upgraded to slugs, has the highest range and accuracy among the shotguns, effectively turning it into rifle. The difference between Magrach and regular Saiga are the unique attachments, including holosight.

[@davidmarshall6970]

I low key farm armor and weapons from the kindergarten in prypiat. Snipe a monolith run away. Snipe a monolith run away. Rinse and repeat. After a while there’ll be too many ruby and diamond suits to even carry back. They’re comrades loot the dead bodies and pick up they’re weapon and armor set

[@stigmat6738]

03:57 Shevchenko not shevenko ))) Taras Hryhorovych Shevchenko was a Ukrainian poet, writer, artist, public and political figure, folklorist and ethnographer.

[@NyNo.O]

Yeahh I was fully kitted with the gauss rifle before entering SIRCAA for the first time 😅

[@Hippy777]

If you stay low to the ground in the toxic chasm you can avoid the acid damage.

[@ej732]

Awesome content.

[@Dima-dc5mf]

You can find extended nag for saiga in upiter station location as well

[@ps2paulywalnutz439]

What optic are you using at 1:54/2:04 . Is that modded for PC only ?? , looks like the vortex AMG-UH1. Holographic site IRL.

[@pandaholica7467]

I'm not sure if thats the same sight that you can buy. I've got the ultimate edition saiga and the sight looks completely different from the one you buy in the shops

[@Idiot_in_an_Abrams]

That optic is only found on that specific saiga. U can’t take it off or find another one like it unfortunately

[@skeeter3969]

Yeah the whole this sight is only on this rare gun is actually pissing me off really bad, like of that place was real, pretty much everything would of made it into the zone. But noooo

[@EleanoreFayre]

You're doing a fantastic job! I need some advice: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?

[@blackdust8355]

There is a stash in yantar west near coastline you just have to jump on a gravity anomaly to survive. I believe the Kharod will be there as well as an attachment for the rpm. You might have to find the code by trying to find it where the sign says where it’s at but you can always search it up. Since the sign is in Russian I have no idea where to find the code to the door that is inside that stash room so I had to cheat a little and search it up.

[@MrHimer12]

Uhhh a feature from atomic heart to point crosshair and have prompt in english would be nice. In AH posters are in russian and there is such feature so I can understand what they wanted to say in those.

[@AshleyGatton]

There is a also SVU extended Mag in Zatan on the Coast in a little Cabin. Oh and i just did a side mission near there where you have to unlock a door and let some dudes out. They were walking away but were killed right after by some enemies and each one had like 4 armors and 4 helmets and 4 sweet mint weapons, loads of Amo on each of them? I had to stash it all. Not sure if its a bug?

[@SammySammy-gs3hq]

Cordon stands for "the cordon" the cordoned entrance. Technically the only place that can lead to the outside of the zone. Where its tied off from the rest of the world. So its cordon khordun

[@TARAN66]

Beast, a unique variant of the RPM-74 - added by console because i wouldn't get it im doing "Ward" route & it is to late in game to get it to have fun. It have more penetration than other RPM-74's.

[@MrHimer12]

Excluding that and without console commands would be glutton which can be picked up after leaving lesser zone . Can be just picked up when going from rostok to yantar in the tunnel complex, 2 or 3 snorks but on my explorer route I have found saiga so they weren't a problem...

[@mthlaxer]

Man I wish you could get the suppressor in the game for the russian dmr without having to use console commands. I also wish the supressors actually functioned as intended instead of just looking/sounding cool. Another creator tested them and they have zero effect on enemy detection.

[@_kukaracha_]

thank u for the content!

[@erickr.c.guiitar3974]

I found the Dnipro in a building complex in prypiat in a stash…. Ugh I don’t remember the name of the stash but I think is the one with a passcode. has the extended magazine with the 7.62 mode already, I was like…. The heck? Is supposed to have a lower caliber….. didn’t know that u can change the caliber in that one….

[@ghstproject]

I really hope they unlock the attachments and make unique attachments usable on other weapons as well as collimator sights on rifles... Thats the only thing I am really not happy with in the game! Weapon modding feels like a last minute "just get it in somehow" decision

[@AliVeli-gr4fb]

I think apsb is much better than rhino, with armor piercing ammo, even in veteran it can kill late game exoskeleton guys in a few headshots in a second because rate of fire is already high. Also with its reloading speed and with extended 30 ammo capacity, it is much more usable than rhino. With apsb, I think you dont even need any assult rifles

[@dajimmer4430]

Ayy that scientist in the gas trench i must have gotten lucky because he had the ram 2 and karad

I love this game, but Im having bad time whit expensive repair costs, its insane. When I find a weapon I like if i use it too much then its so expensive for repair. The loot its another disapoint in here, you cant carry too much and cant carry things to sell for at least repair your weapons. Thats are my big problems whit this game 😢

[@DiagolonRider]

i finally finished the game last night and while it was a cool ending... what a let down! lol... this game is begging for new game plus, or at least let us return to the zone! i had so many weapons and armor that i didn't even get to use. Kharod is pretty sick with all the attachments but like u said, assualt rifles are pretty blah in this game. Whip and Saiga D12 FTW!

[@MrHimer12]

@@Astrosive Repair cost to what it can do doesn't justify it. Afer SIRCAA it was completely broken both physically and koupon wise at least on my playthrough, AP ammo wears it even faster it has 600 shoots on standard so... For newcomer I would say that it's way wiser to get GP37 which can be obtained very early, repair it, mod it and use standard ammo because for some reason in this game for GP37 AP ammo doesn't stack(same DMG/penetration) and it doesn't degrade faster and you have 3rd burst which weirdly is more accurate tham single shot spamming AR and GP37 up to 2/3rds of the game is sooo diiiiiirt cheap to reapair in relation to what fully modded one can do. Also between kharod and dnipro there was debate beceause dnipro can be convereted to 7.62 but recoil and feeling charasteristics wise it's way worse than kharod which can be converted for AK ammo and if you're hoarding then you have thousands of rounds for AK in the stash. Weapons are very weirdly balanced here. AK has 20% penetration but 5.45 kharod still does sixty, short barrel saiga and SPSA has more penetration and DMG than long AF double barrel TOZ. Like... For someone who made balance for the weapons - "Shaggy this isn't weed". I know that it's meant for "progression" but even in trilogy AK wasn't this far away from other weapons. In trilogy shotguns were trash I always avoided them, this time I use them most of the time. Fascinating...

@@michaelmiles2647 didint think this would get much replies, but i didint like the late game guns like gauss or super insta kill, so for me the clusterfuck 3 shot headshot the feeling of it was just right.
