How to Locate the Garbage Journalist Cache in the Maze

To find this stash, travel northwest from the Slag Heap towards the car maze. While multiple entrances exist, use the main entrance indicated on the map above for optimal access.

Once inside the maze, proceed to the right until you encounter a burnt-out bus lying on its side. Look to your left; you'll see another bus with a blue exterior. Climb onto this bus to locate the stash. Descend on the opposite side and open the cache to obtain the Tourist Suit Body Armor.

Tourist Suit Body Armor: A Comprehensive Review

The Tourist Suit is a highly effective piece of body armor, particularly beneficial in the early to mid-game stages of Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl. It offers substantial protection against thermal, electrical, and chemical hazards. Its key strengths lie in its exceptional radiation and physical damage resistance, providing a significant advantage in hazardous environments.

Beyond enhanced defense, the suit also boosts stamina regeneration by 5%. Given the extensive exploration in Stalker 2, improved stamina is crucial for efficient traversal. Increased stamina and regeneration allow for more extended travel, significantly improving gameplay.

While the Tourist Suit is highly effective in its base form, further enhancements are possible. While Lens at Zalissya cannot upgrade it, Diode at the Slag Heap possesses the necessary expertise. Diode can equip the suit with high-quality modifications, further enhancing its protective capabilities.
