Well carrying an RPG just to blow up a Chimera is a bit of an overkill. So it's funny. See!
Or, more cheesy way, just duck under the pipes there and it won't be able to reach you, but at the same time it won't run away as it does when you climb the tanks. Kill it with Commemorative Makarov for that extra humiliation.
As for the sniper mission, Gauss Rifle all the way.
As for the guns, LR300 is obvious(In fact there are several on the map), you even get the stash location for doing one of the quests. Vintorez was already explained(You also get the location as a quest reward), the Dragunov is near the Sawmill. There is a road coming out of it which leads north - follow it to the point where the map on your PDA becomes blurry, it's under one of the trees on the right side.
Or just check out these super-spoiler maps.

duck under pipes was my first strategy, but the chimera just hopped around and I didn't get a clear shot. scaling the tower didn't work either so I just lured it out of the area and RPG-one-shotted it. Gauss for sniper mission is good as well but if you wanna 100% positively kill every motherfucker go with RPG :)
koki: no spoiler infos for getting the good ending ?
Pardoner on 8/12/2009 at 12:21
Horrid in what way, exactly? Like Hong Kong or Paris in Deus Ex?
Koki on 8/12/2009 at 13:00
Well Hong Kong wasn't really that bad. They sounded like Chinese trying to speak english to me.
DISCLAIMER: I never heard a Chinese trying to speak english.
The voices in english version of CoP are primarily badly picked. The guy voicing regular stalkers sounds like a homo stoner(I predict his HOWDY HO! will be the new GET OUT OF HERE STALKER), Beard talks like a pirate, Deg has that B-class action hero growl in his voice, Rogue, the leader of Monolithians, has what they probably thought was thick british accent...
But by far the worst is narrator during the intro, he sounds as if he thinks the whole thing is dumb and videogames are dumb and he doesn't really want to narrate but he forces himself to do it.

I just run it through kokian translator and amongst many results this one seemed the most appropriate: "there is no good or bad ending in CoP".

he knows what I mean, it's the "stalkers rush to pripyat" part of the endmovies I'm looking for. I already got pretty much any permutation together by doing quests differently or not at all, I just reserved one savegame at the very start of pripyat when I know how to get this ending but sofar .... no luck. I just finished it again with pre-solving some quests you get later and it did not make much difference.

Actually I had no idea.
No, I have no new info about that.

If you know where to look, you can get a LR300, Vintorez, or even Dragunov five minutes into the game
So I take it we no longer have to find out about a stash before anything will appear in it?
Koki on 11/12/2009 at 07:15
Yep. Hell, most stashes are not stashes anymore, just items lying in the game world.

CoP's stashes are real stashes actually.
