Dungeon

Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl  → Dungeon

Down below, you'll be warmly greeted by bandits. Avoid the electrical anomalies—descend the spiral staircase to the lower level, a realm of cheerful green lights, filled with witch's jelly, and inquisitive bloodsuckers.

After dealing with the mutants and a few stray soldiers, climb the ladder in the pipe to the hiding place. There are two interesting items here. First, a rapid-fire AK-74, the one and only. Second, a flash drive containing information about Strelok. It will lead you to a stalker named Prizrak, one of Strelok's comrades.

Carefully move further underground and prepare to encounter the game's first controller. If you have grenades, good. If not, you can survive. Hide from him around the corner and fire at him with quick bursts so he doesn't have time to capture the stalker's attention.

Wait until evening (you might have to go have some tea), and emerge from underground. You are inside the perimeter of the research center, and your goal is to steal the coveted briefcase from the third floor. Continue to the surface  of the Agroprom Research Institute .
