Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl features numerous NPC interactions, often leading to small quests. One such unique encounter is with Lyonchyk Sprat in Rookie Village. This guide details how to find and complete his "Joke" quest.
Finding and Starting the Joke Quest

Locate Lyonchyk Sprat in Rookie Village (Cordon region). Upon reaching the village center, he'll call out to Skif. His initial attempt at a joke will fail, leading him to ask for your help in delivering a better one to a group of stalkers by the bonfire. Agreeing initiates the quest.
Completing the Joke Quest
Lyonchyk instructs Skif to climb into the attic and wait for his cue. A ladder next to the bonfire leads to the attic. Climb up and wait.
You'll be presented with several joke options. Regardless of your choice, Lyonchyk will successfully deliver the joke, completing the quest.
Receiving Your Reward

After the interaction, descend and speak with Lyonchyk. He'll thank you and reward you with 900 coupons. Failure to choose a joke option will result in Lyonchyk failing and running off, leaving the quest incomplete.
