Just finished the Arena, that was pure fun.. i wish there had been even more oponents to fight :)

if you play the arena thru before finishing the main quest a few enemies are spoiled for you. but nothing dramatic ;)
I hope for a nice 1st price, like a rare artifact, ammo or gun but you only get money which I have enough of or no real use for (enough ammo/guns on corpses).
btw: you can somehow spawn as much enemies as you want into the arena, found it somewhere on the gsc forum.
will post it if I can find it again sometime.

family rifle is in underground in the wild territory. beside the helicopter crash site where you first meet the scientist from yantar is a ramp into an collapsed underground "room" filled with anomalies and a monster I think. if you hop around on the car roofs you should be able to find the rifle + some goodies !!!
Yes that's where I found the "family rifle" and the neat goodie, however I still didn't get the option to give it to the guy at the bar. Must be a bug. Is the artifact this guy gives you availible anywhere else? as I like the sound of +5 bulletproof cap.
Thanks

Huh? I didn't get that artifact when I gave the guy the family rifle. :confused:

Then some other guy in the Bar gives it after one finishes his quest, or perhaps Barkeeper himself. Mama's beads is the most precious artifact IMO. I found another one at the beginning of Dark Valley, but it was with previous patch, I heard the artifact was moved somewhere else with 1.0004.

It must be the Barkeep, because I've done the missions for all the guys except him, and no Mama's beads. All I have left to do for him is camp eliminations and bringing items to him.
What is up with the camp defense/elimination missions anyway? I get flooded with those things at certain parts of the game, kill all the wild dogs, kill the zombie, kill all the bloodsuckers, and I can go on and on. These are missions I never accepted to do. Nor would I do all of them right away as the 1 day limit is very low.

The follow-up gives you a rare artifact if i remember correctly.

I just did missions for stalkers in the Bar and Informer gave me the Mama's Beads for killing a stalker in Army Warehouses, and 'Bald' (not sure what's his name in English) gave Night Star for elimination of guy who stole artifacts from him.

Those kind of missions are endless as far as I know, so there isn't much sense to do them.

The Mama's Beads artifact is indeed given to us by Snitch (that's the annoying guy who keeps telling us 'My information might well be of use to you, Stalker') when we kill someone for him in the Army Warehouses. There's another one at the entry to Dark Valley, and a third one to be found in Pripyat, if we can find information about Fang's stash. I've never been able to find more than these three Mama's Beads.
