As an experienced survivor of the post-apocalyptic wasteland that is now Chernobyl, I’ve learned to scavenge where I can and hoard supplies when I find them. The Journalist Stashes hidden throughout the Exclusion Zone are a godsend for us nomads like me, offering valuable loot that can help me stay one step ahead of the mutants and bandits.
“In Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, one of your early side missions is ‘Seek, And You Shall Find‘. Although it’s not necessary, I recommend you don’t ignore this quest because it offers some top-tier weapons within the game.
The “Seek, And You Shall Find” quest challenges you to locate hidden Journalist’s Caches scattered throughout the game environment in “Stalker 2.” These caches hold rare treasures such as weapons and armor. Although their positions are indicated on your map, they can sometimes be tricky to discover. This guide offers precise locations for every Journalist’s Cache found within the “Seek, And You Shall Find” mission in “Stalker 2.
How to Start “Seek and You Shall Find” Mission in Stalker 2
In the town of Zalissya, the “Seek, And You Shall Find” quest can be started once you have successfully completed the main mission titled “A Needle in a Haystack”. Upon finishing this mission, you’ll get a clue to inspect your Personal Locker.
Inside the stash, you’ll find the Journalist’s Flash Drive, which reveals the locations of all the Journalist’s Stashes scattered across the Exclusion Zone.
