Unlocking the Brain Scorcher's Secret Stash in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl
The Brain Scorcher, a landmark location in the Stalker universe, also features in Stalker 2. Within its vicinity lies a seemingly impenetrable Tamper-Proof Stash, secured within a locked warehouse. However, a clever bit of parkour provides an alternative entry.
Locating the Warehouse
Find the Brain Scorcher in the northern Malachite region. The Tamper-Proof Stash will appear on your map, guiding you to the warehouse with the locked door. Ignore the locked door; it's not the intended entrance.
Accessing the Warehouse
Follow these steps to bypass the locked door:
- Circumvent the warehouse to the left, ascending the orange stairs to a stack of crates.
- Utilize the crates to leap over the containers to the right, progressing to the next container cluster.
- From this position, jump over the crane on your right, continuing past it to the far end.
- Descend onto the containers below, navigating a zigzag path to an opening at the rear of the warehouse.
Navigating the Warehouse Interior
Inside, be cautious of trip mines obstructing the path to the Stash. Carefully disarm them before proceeding to the front of the warehouse.
Retrieving the Stash and Exiting
The Tamper-Proof Stash, a large, already unlocked safe, awaits at the front. Loot its valuable contents (ammo, medkits, etc.). To exit:
- Locate the power panel near the locked entrance.
- Proceed to the right of the power panel, further into the warehouse.
- Find and activate a downed generator amongst some crates to restore power.
- Return to the power panel and flip the switch to unlock the door.
Now you can leave the warehouse using the now-unlocked main entrance.
