Check out our All arch-artifact locations in Stalker 2 guide, **COMING SOON**
The best Artifacts in Stalker 2 come in the form of Arch Artifacts, of which there are 6. While normal Artifacts come with negative effects, the Arch Artifacts do not. Thus, making them the most valuable in the game, and well worth seeking out as soon as possible. The location of all 6 and what they can do be found in the guide below.

After the March updates, when catching a "strange bolt", you can no longer touch the whirlwind - immediate death in 99% of cases. You need to catch it correctly, as creaked by the developers - i.e. you need to walk from the garage under the arrow into the center of the whirlwind and then calmly move almost on foot in the center of this tornado, passing all the obstacles. YOU CAN SAVE along the way. When you climb the arrow, save carefully and you can not catch it only by jumping from the arrow into the gravity trampoline.
P.S. It's just not possible to catch it at the end of the arrow like before in all the videos before March (no matter how much I tried), only in "leap of faith" the button to grab it is activated.
