The Farmstead ruins are a minor location in the Cordon featured in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky.
Overview[]
The ruins encompass two buildings, one of which is relatively intact, the other which has only partial walls remaining and a campfire. A defensible and strategic location as one can observe the road through Cordon, the Railway bridge and the Northern farm.
Appearances[]
Shadow of Chernobyl[]
The ruins are where Fox is found, and where he must be talked to if the player is attempting to locate Strelok. The player must first help out Fox with a medkit, and then help him fight off a pack of blind dogs, after what he tells the player about Seriy.
Later in the story, the player can return there to talk to Guide about Doctor. Loners will join the two men at the camp afterwards.
Clear Sky[]
In Clear Sky, the ruins serve as a Bandits outpost. Shilov states that the bandits mug the stalkers as they bring loot back to the stalkers base, and thus provides a mission requiring their elimination. Loners will typically settle at the farmstead afterwards. Despite its proximity to the base, the location is not part of the Faction Wars, although loners squad leaders may provide a mission to capture it if it was overrun by mutants.
Loot[]
Shadow of Chernobyl[]
On the second floor in the broken rooftop building near the campfire place, there is some small loot that can be found in the room behind boxes such as Medkits, Bread, Tourist's Delight and some Bandages.
