Armor in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl can be a significant investment, both in purchase price and costly upgrades. However, savvy players can acquire the powerful SEVA-D suit completely free. This robust armor offers substantial benefits, including crucial PSI protection, saving you a considerable sum of in-game currency. Here's how to obtain it.

How to Get the SEVA-D Armor in Stalker 2

The SEVA-D armor is located atop a building in the Cage area, within the Cement Factory region of the game. This location lies north of the Cement Factory base and east of the Slag Heap base. You'll need to navigate a precarious climb on an under-construction building. Be warned: the climb is challenging, featuring narrow concrete beams and a PSI anomaly that inflicts damage over time. Carrying ample medkits and saving frequently is highly recommended to avoid frustrating restarts after a fall.

Conquering the Cage Building

Here’s a step-by-step guide to reaching the summit:

1. Ascend the initial concrete stairs to the first floor.
2. Proceed along the right-hand path, traversing the narrow concrete beam to the opposite side. Locate and climb the stairs to the second floor.
3. From the second floor, jump the gap and follow the narrow path to the right.
4. Cross the beam and jump another gap to reach a rusted metal platform.
5. Utilize the ladders to climb the platform, then use the stacked boxes to access a narrow pathway.
6. Carefully traverse the narrow concrete path and the connecting beam to the right, reaching the center of the structure.
7. Locate another concrete beam with a pole to its right. Cross the beam and jump onto the platform. Use the stairs to reach the third floor.
8. Finally, jump the gap to the opposite side, crouch under the concrete beam, and use the stairs to reach the roof.

Claiming Your Prize: The SEVA-D Suit and its Stats

The SEVA-D suit resides in a blue stash at the roof's edge. Don't forget to grab the limited edition energy drink and the PDA under the table—they contain valuable resources.

The suit arrives at 70% durability but is easily repaired by any technician for a modest fee. Its significant PSI and radiation protection, coupled with high physical protection, makes it invaluable in combat. To exit, simply jump through the hole in the roof's center; you'll land safely on a gravitational anomaly below.
