Quick Links

Journalist caches in Stalker 2 are strategically placed across various map regions, some areas containing multiple caches. One such cache, located within the car and truck maze in the Garbage region, holds valuable armor. This guide details how to easily access this hard-to-reach location.

How to Locate the Garbage Journalist Cache in the Maze

To find this cache, travel northwest from the Slag Heap towards the car maze. While the maze has multiple entrances, use the main entrance shown on the map above for the easiest access.

Once inside, proceed to the right until you reach a wrecked bus on its side. Look to your left; you'll see another bus with a blue exterior. The cache is atop this bus. Climb onto the bus, retrieve the Tourist Suit Body Armor from the cache, and exit the bus on the opposite side.

Is the Tourist Suit Armor Worthwhile?

The Tourist Suit is a top-tier early-to-mid game armor piece in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl. It provides solid protection against thermal, electrical, and chemical hazards. Its key strengths are its exceptional radiation and physical damage resistance, making it invaluable in hazardous environments.

Beyond enhanced defense, it also boosts stamina regeneration by 5%. Given the extensive foot travel in Stalker 2, improved stamina and regeneration are significant advantages, enabling longer journeys.

While effective on its own, the Tourist Suit benefits from upgrades. While Lens at Zalissya can't upgrade it, Diode at the Slag Heap possesses the necessary expertise. He can equip high-quality modifications to further enhance its protective capabilities.
