Pristine weapons and gear are hard to come by within the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, so you will have to make do with worn-down or broken weapons — unless you can repair them. So here is how to repair weapons in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl.
How to Fix Weapons and Gear in Stalker 2 Heart of Chornobyl
Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl players can fix their weapons and gear by talking to a Technician, who will repair your items in exchange for coupons. Technicians are found in major settlements, such as Lens in Zalissya.
Talking to him with open up the Technician menu with all of your weapons and gear in your inventory. Go down the list to the gun or armor you want to fix and choose the Repair option to restore durability completely. You can also upgrade your gear at the Technician as well.
The cost of repairing your gear will depend on the rarity of the weapon and how damaged it is. It can cost a few hundred or a few thousand coupons, so be sure to choose wisely if low on funds. The durability of the gun affects accuracy and how often it can jam, so repair when you can since fast traveling back to town is not always an easy option.
What to Do With Broken Weapons in Stalker 2 Heart of Chornobyl
The desolate wasteland is full of broken weapons that can be picked up and are marked by a red broken shield icon. These weapons are practically useless in fights and cannot be sold for coupons.
Technicians will not buy these guns from you. The only method to sell these red broken shield guns is by repairing them, which is often not worth the price.
That means you should not pick up broken weapons unless they are good enough to be repaired. We already have limited inventory space and I think we should save our coupons for repairing our main guns.
