Navigating the hazardous Zone in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl exposes you to the debilitating effects of PSI radiation. While some suits offer basic protection, the SEVA series stands out as the ultimate defense against this potent threat. Three distinct SEVA suits are scattered throughout the game's open world, each presenting a unique challenge to acquire. Let's explore each variant and determine which reigns supreme.

The SEVA-D Suit

Your journey to obtain the SEVA-D suit begins within the perilous Cage location nestled in the Cement Factory region. This suit rests atop a half-finished building, demanding a treacherous climb fraught with challenging terrain and a dangerous PSI radiation anomaly. Reaching the summit requires both skill and caution.

The SEVA-V Suit

The SEVA-V suit offers a more accessible early-game acquisition, located at the Scientist Helicopter Point of Interest (POI) in the Rostok region. A simpler climb to the top of a crane leads to the operator's cabin, where this valuable suit awaits. The SEVA-V boasts superior stats compared to its predecessor, including an additional artifact slot.

The SEVA-I Suit

The pinnacle of SEVA armor, the SEVA-I, offers the best overall stats and superior PSI protection. Two locations offer a chance to obtain it: the Duga base or the Yantar Production Complex. At Duga, it's found near the arms depot, requiring a confrontation with a Burer before claiming your prize. The Yantar Production Complex presents a less challenging route, involving a climb over rusted pipes and entry through a hole in the wall. Early-game players might find Yantar the more prudent choice.
