However, Beard with who he had an arrangement to let his stalkers use those new, prototype detectors and in return sharing the profit made from selling the artifacts is not living up to the task. When speaking personally with Owl he admits that he received the new detectors (Svarog) and those are outstanding. You need to see Beard and convince him to hold up his end of the deal. Our agreement was to split loot evenly, but stalkers refuse to bring our half. I made a deal with Beard so that the stalkers he hires use those new detectors. These detectors let you run circles around all other artifact hunters. Novikov did heck of a job on those detectors - extended the working range, improved sensitivity and some other stuff. Our little business here is up in the air now. However, stepping outside the Skadovsk and heading to the point where the player gets the 'You may now equip your weapon' message may trigger the message from Owl once at least 30 hours have passed since handing in the Veles detectors. The time the player needs to wait varies and sleeping, traveling Yanov Zaton nor any other action seem to have any impact on speeding up the process.

Hermann also sells these, and the player can simply revisit Hermann to purchase 3.Īfter getting the detectors, they need to be delivered to Novikov in Yanov at the Scientists' Bunker which should be the easier part of the job.Īfter informing Owl of all this and waiting some time he lets the player know that he has some more business to discuss.

It is awarded by Hermann for completing the Anomaly research mission.

They often spawn in the inventory of experts, usually Zombified Stalkers.

Beard will give the player one for completing the Bloodsucker Lair mission.

There is one in a stash in the Kopachy village in Jupiter, in the excavator cabin.

This, however, might get tricky at the beginning since there are very limited possibilities of getting them and without visiting Yanov early on. Completing Mercenary Camp mission is not necessary.Įxactly as Owl says, the player needs to get three Veles detectors. Owl will offer this mission to the player after completing The Hit and Transaction missions. Tempting Business is a side mission available in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat.
