Discover all artifacts in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. Learn their effects, how to find them in anomalies, and their unique properties in this comprehensive artifact list.
This guide covers all artifacts found in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. Artifacts provide various positive and negative effects, and are typically found within anomalies. This section details each artifact, its description, and its specific effects.
| Artifact | Description | Effects |
|---|---|---|
| A common artifact found in electro anomalies. The high-frequency alternating current glowing within the Battery does not cause burns upon contact. | Endurance: Weak Radiation: Weak |
| An uncommon artifact found in gravitational anomalies. In the absence of an observer, the artifact cannot be measured by any instruments. | Physical Protection: Medium Radiation: Strong |
| A common artifact found in acid anomalies. The Bubble's transparent membrance conceals a substance that resembles the contents of the Fruit Punch anomaly. | Radio Protection: Medium |
| A common artifact found in thermal anomalies. Slightly accelerates the growth of nearby plants. | Bleeding Resistance: Weak Weight Effect: Weak Radiation: Weak |
| A common artifact found in electro anomalies. Trying to separate the plates causes them to collapse back into their original shape at speeds exceeding 700 feet per second. | Electrical Protection: Weak Radiation: Weak |
| An uncommon artifact found in chemical anomalies. Any damage to the outer membrane of the artifact results in a reduction in the effectiveness of its practical properties. | Chemical Protection: Medium Radiation: Medium |
| A legendary artifact found in gravitational anomalies. Stalkers hold the belief that whoever discovers and holds onto the Compass will gain the ability to safely navigate the Zone's most treacherous areas. | Physical Protection: Maximum Radiation: Maximum |
| A rare artfiact found in electro anomalies. Despite their apparenty fragility, the spikes on the Crest are hard enough to scratch diamond. | Endurance: Strong Radiation: Strong |
| An uncommon artifact found in gravitational anomalies. Due to its resemblance to a piece of jewelry, the Crown fetches a premium price on the Mainland's black markets. | Endurance: Weak Physical Protection: Weak Radiation: Medium |
| A common artifact found in acid anomalies. Despite its unsightly appearance, the Crust is utilized in wastewater treatment owing to its ability to decompose a wide range of organic pollutants. | Chemical Protection: Weak Radiation: Weak |
| A common artifact found in thermal anomalies. What seems to be the coloring of the artifact is, in fact, flames burning inside the crystal. | Thermal Protection: Weak Radiation: Weak |
| A common artifact found in acid anomalies. Composed of an anomalously hard material unknown to science, with spikes varying in thickness from 0.3 millimeters to just a few molecules. | Radio Protection: Weak |
| An uncommon artifact found in thermal anomalies. Powdered Dead Sponge used to be sought after by practitioners of alternative medicine on the Mainland. The remedy's popularity waned following a series of deaths among its users. | Bleeding Resistance: Medium Radiation: Medium |
| A rare artifact found in acid anomalies. Ingesting fragments of the artifact leads to symptoms similar to acute food poisoning, with a mortality rate changing from 60% to 90%. | Chemical Protection: Strong Radiation: Strong |
| A common artifact found in thermal anomalies. When subjected to a temperature of absolute zero, the surface of the Droplets coalesces into an opaque black film. It dissolves as the temperature increases. | Thermal Protection: Weak Radiation: Weak |
| A common artifact found in thermal anomalies. Some stalkers believe that the artifact's "pupil" reacts to movement, but this claim remains unconfirmed by experiments. | Thermal Protection: Weak Radiation: Weak |
| A common artifact found in electro anomalies. The artifact is a ball of plasma that constantly emits heat. | Thermal Protection: Weak Radiation: Weak |
