Removing Hunger

Hunger is an incredibly common status condition in Stalker 2. This condition can impair your performance during intense combat. In order to remove the hunger status condition, you need to consume food items. This includes items such as bread, canned food, or sausage. You can also drink water and alcohol to reduce hunger. However, food is the most effective way to fully alleviate it.

Remember to stock up on various food items during your exploration to keep the hunger status condition and its negative effects at bay.

Stopping Bleeding

The Bleeding status condition occurs when you take damage from bullets or sharp objects. In order to stop bleeding and cure yourself of the status condition, you can use bandages. Bandages are quite easy to find and can completely halt the bleeding regardless of how severe the bleeding is. Medkits can also provide some bleeding reduction.

However, bandages are the most reliable option. You need to keep a good supply of bandages in your inventory so you can quickly address any bleeding injuries.

Reducing Encumbered Status

Encumbered status happens when you carry more than your maximum weight limit in Stalker 2. This causes you to move slower and drain stamina faster. In order to reduce encumbered status, you need to drop heavy items. This includes extra weapons, armor, and consumables like medkits and food.

You can also increase your carry weight limit by equipping armor with weight reduction upgrades. This adds carrying capacity upgrades or using artifacts that grant weight bonuses. The Hercules drug is another option to temporarily boost your carry weight.
