Upon arriving at the STC Malachite base in the Malachite region of STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl, players will encounter Dr. Viktoria, a scientist who also acts as the base’s trader. She’ll enlist Skif’s help to investigate the disappearance of two expedition groups led by Lefty and Blizzard. Accepting her request triggers the “Black Sheep”side mission. Below is a detailed guide on how to effectively complete this quest.
Locating and Rescuing Blizzard from Bloodsucker
Upon accepting Dr. Viktoria’s task to find Blizzard, proceed towards the Chemical Plant area. As you approach Blizzard’s last known location, players will hear him calling for help over the radio, signaling that he’s in trouble.
Upon arrival, you will witness Blizzard under attack from a Bloodsucker. To effectively deal with this mutant, draw its attention by firing a single shot. Once the Bloodsucker redirects its focus on Skif, quickly eliminate the creature to ensure that Blizzard remains unharmed.
After defeating the Bloodsucker, Blizzard will express his gratitude and reward Skif with a set of Coupons.
Finding Lefty’s Group & Recovering Data
From Blizzard’s location, head north to locate an abandoned compound where Lefty’s group was last stationed. Upon entering, you’ll discover that sadly, there are no survivors; all members have been turned into zombies.
After clearing out the zombified enemies, search Lefty’s corpse to find a Flash Drive. Once you have the drive, exit the building, navigate to the pier, and download the crucial data into the Flash Drive from the nearby scientist’s apparatus. With this completed, return to STC Malachite to relay your findings to Dr. Viktoria.
Returning to Dr. Viktoria at STC Malachite
Once back at STC Malachite, approach Dr. Viktoria to conclude the Black Sheep side mission. Provide a detailed account of your findings, starting with how you successfully saved Blizzard from the Bloodsucker. She will express her gratitude and reward Skif with 2,429 Coupons.
Following this, share the unfortunate fate of Lefty’s group and present her with the Flash Drive you recovered. Dr. Viktoria will commend Skif’s efforts in obtaining the drive and the information on it, subsequently rewarding him with 4,589 Coupons.
