The Weird Flower is nestled in the northern part of the Poppy Field, beyond the central L-shaped structure. Be warned: navigating the field requires ample Non-Stop Energy Drinks to combat the debilitating drowsiness and hallucinations. Keep moving until you spot a small, distinctive blue flower on the ground.

Equip the Weird Flower in an available Artifact slot above your Quick Access menu. The number of slots varies depending on your gear; new players typically have only one.

The Weird Flower provides a temporary stealth boost, but only after sleeping while equipped. A suitable bed can be found in the side room of the Trader's location in the Lesser Zone. Sleeping advances time, potentially shifting your wake-up time to nighttime.

The Weird Flower's practical value is debatable due to limited sleeping opportunities in the game. Its stealth benefit might not outweigh other strategic options. Selling it to a trader is a viable alternative.

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is currently available on Xbox and PC.
