Walkthrough - Zaton Map - Part 1 STALKER: CoP Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

There is no denying that marshes are what you'll be seeing very often in Zaton. It's also the area of conflict between Stalkers represented by (point 2 on quest map) and the bandits represented by Sultan (point 10). Neutrality is not an option here. You have to opt for one side of the conflict during the missions. After beginning the adventure, you should head to Stalker headquarters (point 1 on quest map). It'll be a straight-forward way from there.

General map

 

Important locations on the map:

1) Ranger Station - Location connected with mission 11 (Transaction). There's some canned food on the pickup in the north. Ammo and a machinegun in one of the machines in the big hangar. In the narrow building in the west, behind the machine - health pack and Gauss cells. On the upper floor (you can get there by going up the ladder) there's a rifle and ammo.

2) Waste Processing Station - a factory full of hostile mercenaries (mission 6 (Mercenary Camp)). Between the trailer and the driver's cabin in the east there's a grenade launcher with some grenades. On the construction holding the big metal pipes at the back of the building - medicine.
