But you must get rid of the money if you want any other Monolith ending than I WANT TO BE RICH, right?

I never end the game at the Wish Granter. That only happened once, on my first playthrough, and yes, obviously I got that ending.

In one game I managed to get hold of four moonlights and one... of the midrange endurance booster, I forget what it's called. With that, you can sprint an awful lot on 59.9KG. My usual mix would be three mamas beads, soul and moonlight. four or five crystals/urchins can be useful for getting around radiation if you don't have a well maintained rad suit.

What about the other wishgranter endings, you saw the cinematics? I didn't, that's why I'm curious, are they different? This time I want to choose the Zone to disappear.

To a degree. All wishgranter cinematics are cute but they're short and share one common idea. 'I want the Zone to disappear' is especially funny... in a gloomy way.

You mean you've seen them all? I wish I could rip the videos out somehow, I don't know if I'll play the game 5-6 times to see them all.

242 on 31/10/2007 at 17:08

Yes saw them all, after I finished the game of course.
You may watch them all on YouTube, there is plenty of Stalker videos.

In the endgame I generally equip Mama's Beads, Soul, Crystal and TWO Moonlights. The Moonlights allow me to sprint indefinitely when under 50kg; I would equip more if I have found more.

The Moonlight's electric damage penalty is only a problem if you blunder into electric anomalities, and those things can generally be seen from a mile off, figuratively speaking. If the game packs something like a lightning gun, then it would be a different matter.

I probably stash an extra Soul and Crystal in the pack for emergency use.

Two +sprint regen moonlights(moonshine?) and three +rad regen fireballs... everything else gets trashed. Just not worth the extra effort and weight

I usually carry - the green haz-mat suit and a monolith body armor and the Vintar BC / G-36 rifles and sometimes a pistol for the sheer fun of it.

and three +rad regen fireballs...

Crystals are better - -30, while Fireballs give only -20. But they are very rare things.

I agree 242. I just haven't found the crystals during this play through -->SANEX v1.004 mod. In fact I haven't found the moonlights yet.. I'm currently using the lower quality +sprint artifacts.

I've gotten pretty lazy about searching stash sites and need to clear the marked locations.
