Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl rewards players for exploration, sometimes with useful artifacts, and other times with powerful guns. Enemies tend to travel in packs, whether they're humans or mutants, and it would be helpful to acquire a long-range weapon early in the game to pick them off from a distance. The Valik Lummox's AKM-74S is a great assault rifle with a high-powered scope that players can get their hands on early on in the game, and this guide details exactly where to acquire this invaluable ranged weapon.
