In *Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl*, armor suits rank among the priciest gear you can purchase from in-game vendors. Not only do they come with a steep initial cost, but upgrading them with coupons can also drain your resources quickly. However, there's a cost-effective alternative: you can obtain the SEVA-D suit for free in the open world. This robust piece of equipment not only saves you money but also offers substantial buffs, including PSI protection. Here's a detailed guide on how to acquire it.

How to Get the SEVA-D Suit of Armor in Stalker 2

The SEVA-D suit can be found atop a building in the Cage area of the Cement Factory region in *Stalker 2*. This location is situated north of the Cement Factory base and east of the Slag Heap base. You'll need to navigate to an under-construction building and make your way to the top to claim the suit.

Reaching the summit can be challenging due to the narrow concrete beams and the presence of a PSI anomalous field that causes continuous damage. It's wise to carry ample medkits and save your progress frequently as you ascend to avoid restarting from the ground up if you slip.

Reaching the Top of the Cage Building

Follow these steps to reach the top of the building in the Cage and secure the SEVA-D armor:

1. Begin by ascending the initial set of concrete stairs to the first floor.
2. Proceed along the right-hand path and carefully traverse the narrow concrete beam to the opposite side. Aim for the stairs there to reach the second floor.
3. Upon reaching the second floor, leap across the gap and continue along the narrow path on your right.
4. Move across the beam and make another jump to reach a rusted metal platform.
5. Use ladders to climb atop the platform, and utilize the stack of boxes to access a narrow path.
6. Navigate the narrow concrete path and cautiously step onto the connecting beam on the right to reach the center.
7. Identify another concrete beam with a pole on its right side. Cross this beam and jump onto the platform on the right. From there, use the stairs to ascend to the third floor.
8. From the third floor, simply jump the gap to the other side, crouch under the concrete beam, and use the stairs to reach the roof.

Grabbing the SEVA-D Suit & Its Stats

Locate the SEVA-D suit in a blue stash at the edge of the Cage's roof. While you're there, don't forget to pick up the limited edition energy drink and a PDA under the table, both of which contain valuable resources.

The SEVA-D suit you find will be at 70% durability but can be repaired using coupons by any technician. This suit boasts excellent PSI protection and high radiation resistance. Additionally, its substantial physical protection is a significant advantage during gunfights in *Stalker 2*. To leave the Cage's roof, simply jump through the central hole and land safely on a gravitational anomaly below.
