This flower is not like the others.
The Liquid Rock is a very powerful Artifact that can be obtained relatively early on in the game if you are willing to farm for it. Like most other Artifacts, the Liquid Rock can spawn in various locations across The Zone. That said, only certain types of Anomaly Fields can spawn it. Keep reading to find out everything you need to know about obtaining the Liquid Rock in Stalker 2.
Where to Find the Liquid Rock Artifact
The Liquid Rock has a chance of spawning in large acid Anomaly fields. These types of Anomaly fields can be found in most parts of The Zone, but we recommend trying to farm either in theVehicle Graveyardor thePoisonous Hole. Both these locations can be found in the Garbage area and are relatively close to the Slag Heap. Depending on the route you take, you might be able to reach the Vehicle Graveyard a little faster by starting at Zalyssia rather than the Slag Heap.
The Vehicle Graveyard can be found northeast of thePoppy Fieldand west of Hlynka. The place is filled with all manner of trucks, buses, helicopters, and other decommissioned vehicles. You’ll need to dodge a few Bubbles while you’re scanning for the Artifact, but there are no other dangers in the area aside from that. As far as the Poisonous Hole is concerned, you’ll find this location northwest of the Slag Heap. There’s a chance you’ve been here before since this is one of the three locations you’ll need to visit for theBudmo! quest. There’s a high amount of Radiation in the area, so make sure to pack someCossacks VodkaorAnti-Radiation Drugsbefore you go in.
you may burst Bubbles with Bolts, but they will still release toxic gas if you get too close to them.

Liquid Rock Proprieties
The Liquid Rock is hands down one of the best Artifacts in Stalker 2. The Artifact provides maximum Chemical protection, making future expeditions into acid Anomaly fields an absolute breeze. Bear in mind thatthe Artifact doesn’t make you immune to Chemical damage.However, it does make you considerably more resilient to it. For reference, the Liquid Rock offers better Chemical protection than even theX7 Suitor the SSP-100 M SIRCAA suit.
Even more importantly, the Liquid Rock also provides maximum Radiation protection, which is highly unusual even for a Legendary Artifact. As long as you’re using this Artifact, you can freely equip multiple other Artifacts without having to worry about Radiation. This effect is particularly important if you want to use another Legendary Artifact like theCompassor theHypercube. Those Artifacts emit significant amounts of Radiation and are essentially unusable most of the time unless you pair them with the Liquid Rock.
