How To Get RICH in 4 Minutes | S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Anomaly

I' ve been playing as a mutant hunter for 3 days now, it's fun. I cannot believe how powerful axes are when you face-to-face with bloodsuckes. I chased down 4 of these mf with an axe and skined all of them, only cost me a medkit and one bandage after that.

What I do: I make my main base at Freedom base in Army Warehouses. After every emission and some psy storms, I check all the anomaly fields in AW, then go to Rostok and check for the gravitational anomaly, then go south to the Garbage, then Agropom and lastly Yantar, where I also sell everything I got along the way (usually a few trash artifacts, a couple or sometimes a few more normal artifacts and some mutant parts). I make between 70k and 150k each run, and when I venture off this main path I always look for artifacts and carry at least a couple lead-lined containers so I can take anything I come across. I also buy lead containers, geiger counters, RFs and low tier detectors in Yantar so I get a reliable supply chain of transistors and capacitors to update my PDA, Veles detector and headlamp, and to farm Bear detectors to Skinflint for around 50k. Pretty good, after getting a million so I get the Heavy Pockets achievement, I level up many weapons (as I'm a fan of using different weapons every few trips and always stash a lot).

This is v good advice idk if I could help whoever sees this in future but For anyone who sees this in the future. Idk what happened had a Balaclava with 6% condition and could sell it for 3 RU’s so just set up a auto clicker😭💀 idk what caused the glitch maybe just the 6% condition? It’s weird bc it stays in when I hit sell but everything else would get sold and go into his inventory… maybe can find answers somewhere sorry. I went to great swamp right away and pretty sure it’s a Balaclava from 1 the guys in that 1st town right in front of you or the old church just a little farther down maybe that’s a condition? OR idk if missions are repeatable I did the 1 where you hunt chimera really close to Concord it’s called right? Choosing the Loner faction guy right outside trader/bunker and he paid me 14,000 RU for doing that (in settings increase how much NPC’s pay you for quests) and I was able to accept the SAME exact mission again when I got back so shoot…. (Only recommend if you are struggling on 1st playthrough or idk. that’s what I did bc the prices were *WILD SUPER RIDICULOUS* like dude…. Wtf)

[@SentientBeefStew]

Started doing a bit more artifact hunting. It’s a nice change of pace from the gunfights

[@did1066]

One time I was very lucky to find In the toxic anomaly 2 true artifacts (with radiation and stats). All that needed for this anomaly is military armour "Berill 5M" and helm "Sphere 08". You will have a good chemical def for looting toxic anomaly with non-critical damage at end.

[@Sky_Explorer]

Here is a friendly reminder for the rookies. You can shoot the indestructible artifacts to push it out of the dangerous anomaly for easy pickup. Grenades work really well, just hide behind cover.

[@0ne_jellyfish567]

Playing GAMMA, artifacts you found by your detector have like 5% efficiency, but you may find artifacts that give you perks, they sell really well, for even better money, do jobs for butcher and sell him mutant parts, he gives you the best prices, you can also disassemble weapons you found on corpses and sell these parts that have below 60% since they can´t be repaired, it´s not much but it´s enough to buy some energy drinks and bandages

[@vladbat4050]

The low efficiency artifacts can be used to charge up duplicates of them with the Artifact infuser, allowing those low efficiency artifacts it to then be sold for the hefty sum they tend to worth. A little more of a challenge to find the duplicates but worth it for the payout along with any other 100% artifacts you find along your way :)

[@southernbrain691]

I tend to find multiple samples of the same artifact then empower them with the melter,then i wait about for an npc quest that requests the artifact. Big money

[@yakivpopavich]

Damn 20% chance?, I feel like on Hard/Survivalist its more like 5%. I also love how in Stalker the NPC's literally hunt and collect and sell artifacts too. Don't wait too long , or you may see an PDA message about a Stalker finding an artifact that you could have found yourself!.

[@JoshuaGuzz]

On Scavenger the multiplier for “emission respawn artifact is 0.2” I like garbage because it has an easy path to 6 different anomaly fields. Sleep through 2-3 emissions, get money (and irradiated).

[@Snoogen11]

Well there is nothing stopping you from "liberating" artifacts that have already been found by another stalker. Whenever people are like: "hey I just found X artifact" I'm like: "and so... you have chosen DEATH!".

Sakharov, I haven't done enough research into whether or not beard buys them for more, but Sakharov is closer to the new game areas, so I recommend going to Yantar rather than all the way north, especially for this route.

[@aoki6332]

ecologist buy them higher than everyone else even beard so if you dont want to go down to yantar if your in the north go to Jupiter lab but you will always get more if its a quest so if you can give it as a quest to beard do it

[@AJ-tk1uo]

I'm on day two or three in-game and I'm at $200,000+ in Azazel mode. It's relatively easy to get money through questing and selling the loot you find along the way. I usually rush southern checkpoint in Cordon and try to kill all the military for a quick kit. I also have a mod that has realistic durability on NPC weapons so I can sell most guns because they aren't broken. That mod alone has allowed me to stack money pretty easily.

[@lukaslk4087]

Which location is better for artefact hunting to red forest or garbage? Cause I seem to use EVERY bullet I have when doing a forest run but garbage only gives mediocre artefacts (I'm doing a military run)

[@JoshuaGuzz]

Being the military, I'd say your best bet is to stick to Agroprom and do the same technique, but just sleep in your base. There are plenty of Anomaly fields where you start. There are too many Loners and Bandits in the garbage to make it an easy time. But then again, Artifact hunting is more of a loner thing.

[@JoshuaGuzz]

also, anomaly hunting in Red Forest, VERY BRAVE!

@@JoshuaGuzz I've made absolute BANK I have a stash full of low to mid tier artefacts I also have like 2 goldfish (I sell the artefact if I have 2) and I keep em in a stash so I can use them for quests (Sakharov) and the Jupiter base

Imma b honest king, I gotta hard disagree. Even in small areas like garbage, those things are a bitch to find compared to artifacts. IF WE TALKING GAMMA, 100% you right. Default Anomaly tho, you make 10x more for the time you spend artifact hunting.

[@dra6o0n]

With armor slots, there are addon items that you could save money for that reduces radiation over time. The farm and rookie village traders sells em and more likely to stock as you progress in ranks. Like equipping a 3 slot nomad suit and equipping 3 cooling mods on the slots instead of artifacts, and end up with -3 pts of radiation per second, which at low radiation can save you from needing to buy or use meds.
