Stalker 2: How To Get The Unique Cavalier Rifle

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl boasts a diverse arsenal, letting you tailor your loadout to your preferred combat style. Beyond the standard fare, you can discover uniquely modified weapons with enhanced power – one such gem is the Cavalier sniper rifle. This special variant features a red-dot sight instead of a traditional scope, making it a surprisingly effective choice for short-to-medium range engagements.

Acquiring the Unique Cavalier Rifle in Stalker 2

The Cavalier Sniper Rifle awaits within the Duga base, specifically near the Military Unit. You'll find it inside a warehouse connected to a greenhouse. If you've previously explored Duga to locate the Journalist's stash, accessing this area should be straightforward via the secondary entrance.

Navigating to the Warehouse

Upon entering Duga, head towards the Military Unit building (marked on your map). You don't need to enter the building itself; simply circle around to reach the greenhouse at the rear. Be wary, as two Pseudogiants patrol this area and will attack on sight. Proceed cautiously to avoid a confrontation if desired.

Enter the greenhouse; it leads directly into the warehouse. Brace yourself – upon entry, you'll be swarmed by rats. To survive, utilize the elevated green platforms at the back of the warehouse. A well-placed grenade will quickly dispatch the rodent horde.

Retrieving the Cavalier

With the rats dealt with, examine the warehouse ceiling above the greenhouse entryway. You'll spot wooden boards painted yellow. Shoot these boards with your weapon; the Cavalier sniper rifle will drop down.

Retrieve your prize and safely exit Duga. To further enhance its capabilities, take the Cavalier to Screw, the technician at Rostok base, for upgrades. The rifle boasts exceptional damage and accuracy, further improved with modifications. For those who prefer a red-dot sight over a traditional scope, the Cavalier offers a compelling alternative for close-to-medium range combat.
