What Does the Weird Flower Do in Stalker 2?

Jan 23,2025 Author: Caleb

In Stalker 2, the anomalous Poppy Field holds a unique Artifact: the Weird Flower. This guide explains its location and use.

Finding the Weird Flower

The Weird Flower is located in the northern part of the Poppy Field, beyond the L-shaped building. Be warned: the field's anomalies induce drowsiness and hallucinations. Carry several Non-Stop Energy Drinks to mitigate these effects. The Artifact is a small blue flower on the ground.

Using the Weird Flower

Equip the Weird Flower in your Artifact slot (above the Quick Access section). The number of Artifacts you can equip depends on your gear; early in the game, it's typically limited to one.

The Weird Flower provides a temporary stealth bonus, but only after sleeping while wearing it. A bed suitable for this purpose is found in a side room at the Lesser Zone Trader's location. Sleeping advances time, so a morning nap might result in waking up at night.

The Weird Flower's limited use and scarcity of sleeping locations make it a somewhat underwhelming Artifact. Its value is subjective; many players may prefer direct combat over stealth and opt to sell it.

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is available now on Xbox and PC.
