The box is locked with a rather clever lock installed into it. Judging by its weight and the noise it makes when shaken, there's something inside.
― In-game description
The Steel box in a mission item in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat.
Overview[]
This box previously belonged to Snag, who stashed his loot inside and stowed it away inside a Zaporozhets near the Fueling Station in Zaton. Due to a recent earthquake, the car collapsed into a chasm that is now a snork den under the gas station.
The box must be retrieved as part of the mission Unreachable Stash given by Snag. The box itself weights a heavy 12.00 kg. It is advised that one takes caution on how much one is carrying before taking it as the fight out of the chasm might require some mobility since the player will be attacked by multiple snorks. However, it is possible to drop the box and pick it up again.
The box can be taken back to Snag who will allow the player to take some of the loot, or to Cardan who will pry it open for a mere 500 RU and allow the player to claim all of its content.
Contents[]
The contents of the box are the following:
- A Fora-12 with the tier 1 firing rate and weight reduction upgrade installed.
- 3 Scientific medkits
- An AKM-74/2U with the expanded magazine upgrade installed.
- A Steel helmet with the chemical/radiation protection upgrade installed.
- A Soul artifact
Getting Cardan to pry it open is much more lucrative, as Snag will take most of the items while the player will be stuck with no more than two items.
