Similar to the first objective, this requires you to travel to a location and eliminate some mutants. However, the enemies are mutated rats this time and the vast numbers can easily overwhelm you. Thus, make sure to bring grenades or weapons that can deal burst damage.

Reach the required location and kill all of the mutated rats. You can spot their locations via the compass on top. When done, return to the Cement Factory base camp and speak with Hera to obtain 800 Coupons.

This artifact hunt requires you to bring a Tourist's Breakfast artifact in Stalker 2. In contrast to earlier objectives, you will not be provided with coordinates to retrieve the artifact. You must search for it among anomalies on your own instead.

Although there are several places to get the Tourist's Breakfast artifact, you can navigate to the Chemical Plant region for a guaranteed drop. Travel to the southeast corner of the region and reach the location: Chemical Tanks.

Then, use your artifact detector to find and collect the Tourist's Breakfast artifact within the anomalous area. Take the artifact back to Hera and win 10,000 Coupons.

Tip: Create a save file before searching the Chemical Tanks for the Tourist's Breakfast artifact. If there's no artifact drop, you can load and try again.
