STALKER 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the GSC Game World’s award-winning game franchise STALKER. In this sequel, you take up the role of a stalker, Skif. The survival RPG takes place in the post-apocalyptic Chornobyl Exclusion Zone, where danger comes in many forms, such as humans, mutants, and anomalies. 

In order to survive the highly radioactive Zone, you need to stack good weapons and gear. Having the best weapons increases your chances of survival, especially in the early game. That’s why we came up with a guide on one of the best weapons you can get in the early game, Valik Lummox’s AKM-74S Assault Rifle.

Warlock’s Debtor Side Mission in STALKER 2

The Valik Lummox’s AKM-74S Assault Rifle, a variant of AKM-74S, is one of the best weapons in STALKER 2. With the high-powered scope, you can take down enemies and creatures from a far distance. Luckily, this great assault rifle can be obtained early in one of the side missions, Warlock’s Debtor. 

In Warlock’s Debtor side mission, you are asked to retrieve Warlock’s debt money from a man named Valik Lummox at Zalissya. Warlock shares the coordinates of Valik Lummox. Upon reaching the location, you find that Valik is surrounded by bandits who are threatening him for his stash.

When approaching the bandits, you can choose to either cooperate or threaten them for a fight. Either way, the mission will end up in a fight with the bandits. But choosing to cooperate is more likely the best option. Here is how each option works:

  • If you choose to cooperate with bandits, you negotiate with Valik for his stash location. Eventually, he will reveal that the stash is kept at the top of the nearby Water Tower. On your way to the water tower, watch out for the anomalies. Climb up the tower and loot Valik Lummox’s stash. Pick up Valik Lummox’s AKM-74S and use it to take out the bandits from the top of the water tower. However, returning the stash to the bandits instead of killing them also leads to the same climax of fighting with them. 
  • On the other hand, refusing to cooperate with the bandits results in a fight against them. But this time, you won’t have the Valik Lummox’s AKM-74S (you can retrieve it later after the fight) and won’t benefit from the high vantage point. Upon defeating the bandits, Valik returns his debt money to Warlock, and you will receive your share. Afterward, you can climb the water tower and get the Valik Lummox’s AKM-74S.

After completing the Warlock’s Debtor side mission, you can keep the Lummox’s AKM-74S Assault Rifle to strengthen your arsenal.
