Without leaning on Technicians to upgrade and repair your weapons and gear, you’ll have a tough time surviving the irradiated plains of the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone. While we wouldn’t say their locations on the map are convenient, they are plentiful, with Technicians available in most of the regions that make up the Zone. More importantly, as you pick up better weapons and gear, you’ll find that Technicians in the early zones like Zalissya and the Slag Heap aren’t capable of installing certain upgrades, forcing you to seek out Techs with better upgrade skills. In this guide, we’ll walk you through all Technician locations in Stalker 2.
Where to find Technicians in Stalker 2?
There are a total of 10 Technician locations in Stalker 2. They are available exclusively in major camps such as Zalissya, Slag Heap, and Shelter. Below, you’ll find a table listing their exact locations. In the image gallery above, you’ll find a global map (broken into two parts – one north and the other south) showing their locations. You’ll come across all of these camps as part of the main story, though you can visit the majority of them from the moment you first reach Zalissya and onward.
