The Brain Scorcher: Accessing a Locked Warehouse in Stalker 2
The iconic Brain Scorcher location in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl presents a challenge: a seemingly impenetrable, key-locked warehouse containing a Tamper-Proof Stash. However, a clever workaround avoids the need for a key. This guide details how to bypass the locked door.
Locating the Warehouse
The Brain Scorcher is situated in the northern Malachite region. Locate the Tamper-Proof Stash marker on your map; it will lead you to the warehouse with the locked door. Note: this door isn't the intended entrance.
Accessing the Warehouse
To enter the warehouse, follow these steps:
- Circumvent the warehouse to the left and ascend the orange stairs to a stack of boxes.
- Utilize the boxes to leap over the containers to your right, progressing to the next container set.
- From this point, jump over the crane on your right, traversing past it to the far end.
- Descend onto the containers below and navigate a zigzag path to an opening at the rear of the warehouse.
Inside the Warehouse
Proceed cautiously! Trip mines guard the path to the Tamper-Proof Stash. Carefully disarm them before approaching the front of the warehouse.
Looting the Stash and Exiting
The Tamper-Proof Stash, a large, already unlocked safe, awaits. Gather the valuable resources (ammo, medkits, etc.). To exit, locate the power panel near the entrance.
- Head right from the power panel and move further into the warehouse.
- Activate the generator amongst the boxes on the ground to restore power.
- Return to the power panel and flip the switch to unlock the main door.
This method allows you to access and exit the warehouse without needing a key.
