Throughout yourStalker 2journey, you will come across several different types of anomalies that cause all sorts of distortions. One of these anomalies is theGravitationalkind, and you’re able to find anArtifactat one of them at a point of interest in the Lesser Zone, simply calledRibs.

How to Get the Ribs Artifact

you’re able to find theRibs location in the Lesser Zone, just southeast of the Zalissya base. Once you reach the spot, you’ll see the anomaly distortions around the area.

verify to take out your Bolts and toss them around in the distortions to prevent yourself from taking damage. The Bolts will eliminate the distortion for a few seconds, allowing you to use theDetectorand search for the Artifact.

This shouldn’t be your first rodeo when it comes to usingStalker 2’s Artifact detector, but just in case you are unsure how to use it, just hold the left shoulder button (consoles) or the Tab key (PC) to open the Radial Menu. Then, the Detector will be on the bottom left (left directional button).

Unfortunately,finding Artifacts can be quite annoying inStalker 2. The Artifact’s location will differ from player to player, but justfollow the beeps of your detector, and you’ll find it eventually. Apick-up promptwill appear once you’re close enough, but be sure to get out of the anomaly spot instead of sticking around, as you’re bound to keep taking damage from the gravitational distortions.

As for the Artifact that is in theRibs anomaly, it varies from player to player. In my playthrough, I managed to get theuncommon Crown artifact. It has Weak Physical Protection and Weak Endurance but causes some Radiation, like other Artifacts. It’s best to use these if you have something else tocounter the radiation effects.
