How to unlock the Stalker legend achievement in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chornobyl - Definitive Guide

Getting all artifacts will take some time. There are 27 artifacts and they have fixed and/or random spawn locations. It will require you to complete a few quests, visit a few locations and throw a few bolts.

This good thing is that in-game counter shows your progress out of 14 so it's not common and rare, but rather common and uncommon. Required 14 are:
- Slug
- Slime
- Stone Flower
- Jellyfish
- Flash
- Sparkler
- Meat Chunk
- Stone Blood
- Fireball
- Droplets
- Crystal Thorn
- Thorn
- Gravi
- Wrenched

It would be the best to read wiki entries (https://stalker.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_artifacts#Shadow_of_...) for those artifacts as there are plenty of ways to get those and I simply can't say which one will be the most convenient to you.

I'd suggest make a stash if those artifacts in Duty's or Freedom's base to make sure what you already got, or just keep the list. Keep in mind that some of those will be required for:
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of ChornobylMaximum enduranceThe Maximum endurance achievement in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chornobyl worth 57 pointsEquip all endurance artifacts.

and

Agreed, Crystal Thorn was by far the worst, the location they state in the wiki just sucks. They give you a general location, but the description is so vague I ended up searching the place for 30+ minutes to find it.

You could check also the loading bay of main bandit warehouse for a faction chest. Other than that, Ingess you need to try your luck with Burnt Fuzz anomaly in Army Warehouse or go on killing spree. Often bodies that didn't despawn after changing zone will contain unique stashes. You may want to go to Agroprom Factory and check Loner bodies that are still there.

@Iron, well they are, because you are not just supposed to find them by yourself. You are supposed to find ol locations on a body and get a marker. Taking this into the account, information that Loner stalker body will give you location in Dark Valley is enough. And most stashes have their own description :)

Nah I'm talking about the one specific one that isn't tied to a stash, since I never got that PDA either. It just says in the loading bay of the bandit base, like most of base doesn't look like one massive loading bay. Worst of all is where I finally found it, it didn't even look remotely like a loading bay.

I found Crystal thorn right where averagevargo said it would be, I also found normal thorn which was my final one in a crate in the alley to the right of the bar entrance. there were 2 crates with a thorn a slime and some grenades (not sure if these are random drops or fixed).

Can confirm I found Meat Chunk, Slime, Jellyfish, Crystal Thorn and normal Thorn by smashing the boxes to the right of the bar entrance as mentioned by @Lost Legends. I made a save before hand and just kept smashing and reloading. I just needed to get Thorn but got the other during the reloads as well.

Also confirming above that the two boxes around the back of the front entrance to the 100 Rads Bar (in Bar area) can hold the Crystal Thorn. Save and keep reloading until you get it. Was my last Artifact for achievement and unlocked when obtained.

Can confirm @ Tim Timmy Time is correct! Just got it thanks to much bro!

for those confused the '100 rads bar' is the area the bar keep is in just go to the right of it and break the crates

Since nobody ever said how to find it, go through the main warehouse past the unconstructed area until you get into a room with a Y shaped set of stairs. Go down to the bottom floor, behind this set of stairs and instead of going outside, look behind the indestructible crates for a single breakable one, the crystal thorn is in that box.
