Passage of the game Stalker ("STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl") - Sarcophagus

I'll start by explaining how to get to the location needed to complete the Wish Granter quest. You must remember, however, that if you choose these endings, you will not be able to unlock the best possible ending for the game. The same road leads to an alternative zone - the Secret Laboratory. As a result, even if you plan to get there, you should still take a look at the description of the first quest. As for this location, the sarcophagus is a highly radioactive area, so you should have a lot of anti-radiation drugs in your inventory. You must also use the SEVA suit. This armor offers tremendous protection against radiation. Unfortunately, you won't be able to end the game by running to one of the available exits. Many soldiers will stand in your way. They are equipped with great armor and very powerful weapons, so you have to be extremely careful. Save your game often!

TASKS:

1. Granter's Desire - Part 2

Received from: This quest starts automatically when exploring the Red Forest Control bunker

Starting Point: Red Forest Control Bunker Sector

What should be done:

a) get to the sarcophagus

b) find a monolith and use it

Full passage of the quest:

I strongly recommend that you enable night vision. You can also consider using a flashlight, however enemy soldiers would see you. Keep going forward. Once you've reached the new corridor, you'll have to deal with one sniper squad (#1). Destroy this soldier quickly so as not to lose health points. You can take his weapon if you like (#2). The sniper carried the most powerful weapon in the game, the Gauss Pistol. Unfortunately, this weapon reloads very slowly, so you cannot use it against multiple targets.

You can move on to the next section. Stop your character once you've reached a small crossroads (#1). This will be the most difficult part of this mission. A large group of enemy soldiers is on your left. You can start leaning out to kill multiple targets (#2). Get headshots because the enemy soldiers are wearing very powerful armor and you will waste a lot of time and energy trying to kill them by shooting them in the chest.

I would recommend that you ignore this area for now. Keep going forward. There is a small group of enemy soldiers right around the corner (#1). It would be wise to use a grenade to get rid of them. You will come across a room filled with large pipes. Turn left and use the stairs (#2) to go down to a lower level.

Here you will be able to find two objects of interest - an artifact crate (#1) and a stash (#2). Open the cache. As you probably noticed, there is an exoskeleton inside. This is the best armor for those of you who are planning on having a suit with excellent bullet protection. I would not recommend taking it because you would be exposed to radiation. Instead, take ammo. Return to the crossroads and save the game.

You have two options here. It would be much easier to stay in this corridor. You will have to wait for the enemy soldiers to get here. There is also a risky solution. You will have to get closer to the destroyed part of the wall (#1). Remember, however, that you can be attacked from different directions. Once you have secured most of the room, use the grenades and storm the place (#2). Deal with the remaining enemy units. Save the game again!

Continue to the next section. You will come across a ladder. You will have to kill at least two enemy soldiers here (#1). Luckily, you should be able to surprise them. You can also check their bodies for useful items. You will come across several new guns, however you don't have to pick them up. Your character will reach a much larger room (#2). Secure this entire area.

Important! This is where you will need to make your final decision. If you are planning to go to the secret lab, go to the description of the second quest. If you want to meet the Wish Granter, keep reading.

If this is your default quest, you shouldn't have any problems getting the correct entry. You just have to use your minimap. There is a narrow passage here (#1). Use it. You are approaching a much larger room. Start going up (#2). You won't encounter enemy units here, so you can use your weapons. You only need to monitor the radiation. I would also recommend that you save your progress at least once because it's very easy to fall.

Go to the first staircase. Use night vision goggles if you think it's too dark. The second ladder will be located on your left (#1). You will need to get to the top platform. Your main goal here is to get through the teleporter (#2).

You are about to teleport to one of the highest platforms. As a result, you must be very careful, because it will be very easy to make some mistake. Go to the metal structure (#1). Use it to reach a lower level. Once you are there, continue walking in the direction of your current destination. There are several other platforms here (#2). You should have no problem reaching them, and there is only one path leading to your ultimate goal.

You will have to jump down twice at the end (#1). Beware during the second jump because it is very easy to fall. You will finally reach the monolith (#2). Approach him and press the action key. Now you just have to sit back and enjoy one of the available endings of the game. Check out the next chapter of the guide if you want to know more.

2. Secret Lab - Part 2

Received from: This quest starts automatically after you have completed Secret cache on assignment Pripyat

Starting point: Pripyat sector

What should be done:

a) find a secret entrance

b) use the decoder to open the steel door

c) find out what is inside the secret laboratory

Full passage of the quest:

If you want to complete this quest, you will have to ignore the second final quest - Wish Granter. Luckily, choosing this quest will allow you to achieve the best possible ending for the game. We start in the big room. You will need to find the second passage (#1). Use the ladder (#2). You shouldn't have any problems finding it.

Eventually you will come across a large steel door (#1). Try to open it. Unfortunately, you will have to wait for the decoder (the one from the Pripyat Hotel) to open the door. This will take about 30 seconds. In the meantime, you'll have to deal with a few new soldiers. Enemy units will appear near the stairs (#2). You can try to crouch (they probably won't see you right away) or throw a couple of grenades. As soon as the door opens, go to the new corridor. You will have to wait for the game to load the new map. Once this is done, this mission will end and you can proceed to the next quest.
