Complete The Lost Boys side mission in stalker 2 heart of chornobyl by finding missing diggers and locating Mastiff.
Walkthrough
- 1Head to the Technician Lens in Zalissya. Speak to Lens and ask if he has any work. He will give you the quest to investigate the disappearance of four diggers: Max Saturday, Bedlam, Vasya Punk, and their leader, Mastiff. They were last seen near the tunnel south of Zalissya.
- 2Exit Zalissya via the southern road and follow it until you reach the Dire Thicket point of interest on your left.
- 3Continue south on the road a little further to find a bunker with an open door by the side of the road. Enter the bunker.
- 4Drop down and proceed through the northern hallway, defeating any mutated rats.
- 5Follow the hallway and search a backpack on the floor to find a fuse.
- 6Enter the doorway to the left of the backpack and place the fuse in the nearby fuse box.
- 7Head back to the hallway and continue west. You will encounter a room filled with electrical anomalies. Equip your bolts and throw them at the anomalies to pass through.
- 8Continue through the next hallway to the west to reach another room with a large gravitational anomaly.
- 9Before dropping down, eliminate any rats below.
- 10Go down the stairs. To your left, loot a backpack for supplies.
- 11Proceed through the room, throwing bolts at the anomaly in the ceiling hole.
- 12On your right, you will find a survivor being thrown around by the anomaly. Quickly throw a bolt at the anomaly to temporarily stop it, then rush to the body to loot a PDA.
- 13Read the PDA. It contains a conversation between Max Saturday and Dew, revealing that Mastiff was taken by a Monolithian and everyone else is dead, but Mastiff was taken to another location.
- 14Exit the bunker by heading up the stairs on the western side and interacting with a lever to open a passage.
- 15In the next room, navigate through another area filled with electrical anomalies using your bolts.
- 16Exit the bunker. A new location will be added to your map in the southeast.
- 17Head toward the new objective marker and you will find a run-down shack.
- 18Exit the shack and go behind it to the east to find a smaller building with a padlock on the door.
- 19Shoot the padlock to open the door. Go inside and pick up supplies from the shelves.
- 20Go through the large hole to the right of the door and proceed through the tunnel to enter the shack from a different entrance.
- 21As you enter, you will hear chatter from someone called “The Ninth”.
- 22Go through the doorway to the north. Immediately to your right, you will find Mastiff recovering on a bed.
- 23Speak to Mastiff. He will mention the attic.
- 24Head up the ladder opposite Mastiff to find The Ninth. Speak to him.
- 25When asked why he attacked Mastiff’s men, The Ninth will explain that a deadly mutant attacked them, not him. This is corroborated by the mutant body found earlier in the bunker.
- 26As you discuss Mastiff's situation, the house will be swarmed by men who have come for The Ninth. You will be given the option to help him.
