Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl immerses players in a vibrant open world, featuring non-playable characters (NPCs) engaged in various daily activities. Among the intriguing elements of the game, players will come across wounded soldiers in the Cooling Towers region, who have narrowly survived an attack by the Monolith group but are not yet prepared to confront another threat. This brings players into contact with Maj. Rodetsky, the commander of the group, who solicits the help of Skif to fend off a subsequent Monolith onslaught, thereby initiating the “Matter of Honor”side quest.
Initiating the Matter of Honor Side Quest
To commence the “Matter of Honor”side quest in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, players should navigate to the Material Assets Storage POI within the Cooling Towers region. The quest begins at a specific building located in the southern part of this area.
Upon arrival, players will overhear radio communications between Maj. Rodetsky and Lt. Tryhub as they discuss their efforts to survive another Monolith assault. Maj. Rodetsky extends an invitation to Skif, asking for assistance to repel the impending attack. Accepting his plea will officially trigger the “Matter of Honor”side quest.
Players should be aware of a potential glitch where the building’s door, which Maj. Rodetsky utilizes to summon Skif inside, may be locked. If this occurs, players should explore the left side of the building where broken windows can be found and maneuver around until the conversation is triggered, allowing them to accept the mission.
Defending Against the Monolith Soldiers
As players embark on this quest, the first optional task involves healing three injured Duty soldiers located near Maj. Rodetsky. Two soldiers are positioned next to the major, while another is just outside the entrance. Healing these characters will recruit their aid in the upcoming defense.
Next, exit the building and take a right to locate a ladder leading up to the rooftop. Ascending to this vantage point is critical, as a wave of Monolith soldiers will soon appear. They will approach from the front, allowing players to either utilize their weapons or commandeer an SUV-MK S-3 sniper rifle from a fallen fighter to assist in the defense.
For optimal effectiveness, players should alternate between a sniper rifle and an assault rifle, contingent upon the distance of the approaching foes. Swiftly neutralizing these threats is imperative; should Lt. Tryhub or Maj. Rodetsky sustain too much damage, the mission will result in failure. Upon successfully repelling the Monolith forces, players should speak with Maj. Rodetsky to receive a reward, which includes a bounty of valuable coupons, signaling the completion of the “Matter of Honor”side quest.
