List of All Artifacts

All Artifacts in STALKER 2

ArtifactDescriptionEffects

Battery Battery

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

Broken Rock Broken Rock

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

Bubble Bubble

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

Cavity Cavity

A common artifact found in thermal anomalies. Slightly accelerates the growth of nearby plants.Bleeding Resistance: Weak
Weight Effect: Weak
Radiation: Weak

Chocolate Bar Chocolate Bar

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

Ciliate Ciliate

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

Compass Compass

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

Crest Crest

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

Crown Crown

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

Crust Crust

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

Crystal Crystal

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

Crystal Thorn Crystal Thorn

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

Dead Sponge Dead Sponge

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

Devil's Mushroom Devil's Mushroom

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

Droplets Droplets

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

Eye Eye

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

Fireball Fireball

A common artifact found in electro anomalies. The Fireball's surface is covered in a layer of soot, which is why it is often mistaken for a lump of coal.Electrical Protection: Weak
Radiation: Weak
