Where to Find the Weird Flower in Stalker 2
Locate the Weird Flower Artifact in the northern section of the Poppy Field. You'll need to navigate past the central L-shaped building. Be warned: bring plenty of Non-Stop Energy Drinks to combat the field's effects. Skif will experience significant drowsiness and potential hallucinations. Continue through the field until you spot a small, blue flower on the ground.
How to Use the Weird Flower
Equip the Weird Flower by placing it in an available Artifact slot above your Quick Access menu. The number of slots available depends on your equipped gear; new players typically have only one.
The Weird Flower provides a temporary stealth bonus, but only after sleeping while wearing it. Currently, a convenient sleeping spot is found in a side room at the Trader's location in the Lesser Zone. Sleeping will advance the in-game time; a morning nap might result in waking up at night.
The Weird Flower's practical value is debatable. Limited sleeping locations restrict its usefulness. For players preferring direct confrontation over stealth, selling it to a trader might be a viable option.
Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is available now on Xbox and PC.
