S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat

Call of Chernobyl Tools
Seriously where the hell are the basic tools at? I've found two sets of advanced but not a single set of basic tools. Forrestor is a greedy prick and I'd really rather stop giving the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ cash unless I need tier 3's. Anyone found any in the world or in a stash that doesn't require a random spawn? I don't mind needing a stash location but I find it ridiculous that the first stash I always get on a duty playthrough ends up being a stash with advanced tools yet I can't get a single stash with basics >_<

It should not technically matter. All stashes are functionally the same. The only difference being that marked stashes provide markedly better loot.

Hmm this unfortunately just leaves everything up to chance then. Damn, that's annoying. Oh well.

Made an interesting find related to this, https://www.reddit.com/r/stalker/comments/49pq0c/call_of_chernobyl_basic_tools/


So apparently I'm not the only one that had this trouble back then either. Seems this is still an issue as well.

That thread is pretty old and doesnt enlighten us at all. We still dont know if its a bug on our side or thats the way the new mod version works and we just got on the wrong side of the RNG. Even in that old thread some people claimed they found the kits easily in stashes and from loot.

I'm not even going to entertain this anymore. You're free to ignore it,

If it helps at all, i found basic tools in a stash near the Yantar entrance from the Wild Territory. The stash was sitting in a metal crate, one of the sides was not present which allowed me to access it.

Hmm that one always seems to carry scientific medkits for me. Unless of course I'm misunderstanding which one you're referring to.

Its in Yantar near the entrance thats leads into the Wild Territory. If you are coming from Wild Territory into Yantar, the missing panel on crate will be facing away from you. I actually didn't notice the stash until i was leaving Yantar into Wild Territory. I don't know if factions change stash loot or not, but I was playing as Freedom.

Hmm damn yeah that one's always empty for me. I'll try loading a freedom sometimes and see if I get different results.

You'd better tell me, how to add those tools to traders? What to change in traders' script files?

I know this thread is kinda old, but since I had some luck finding tools I thought I'd share.

I had issues finding tools too and looked around the Web for help. Didn't find anything definite but thats not the Web's fault, the mod makes it so that tools don't spawn in set places but according to some posts it does seem to spawn more often in player starting locations like Cordon.

Anyways I did find a set of advanced tools in the stash box of the Jupiter station. You know, next to the hunter Loner? I searched all of Zaton's stash locations (knowing all from my time playing Call of Pripyat w/Complete mod) but didn't find any tools or anything there. After investigating some marked stash locations (those given to you for completing tasks) I found another set of advanced tools next to one of the bigger helicopters (next to the right landing gear) in the Truck Cemetary.

I finally found a set of basic tools from a stash on the roof of one of the buildings in Bloodsucker Village in the Army Warehouses map.......basically the horror show town, with non-interactive corpses all over. This was an unmarked stash (location not given beforehand/not marked) and I got this tip from this helpful reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/stalker/comments/480a8r/call_of_chernobyl_where_to_find_tools/

Thanks Evaian and TimtheBigDaddy! (though the latter tip was slightly off.....but only slightly)

That link has some other possible locations but I haven't checked those out, since I'm posting this just after I found the set of basic tools.

Also I haven't found fine tools (or tools for calibration as Call of Pripyat vanilla would call those) yet.

Will post more info on tools as I find those.

Details:

CoC v1.4.22
Ecologist
Story Mode
Stalker difficulty

Update to my previous post:

Found one set of basic tools AND one set of advanced tools together at a stash box near the "Push - Pull" anomaly on Garbage, facing the nearby sleeping area. Stash was marked.

Found one set of advanced tools at a stash box near the "Witch's Jelly" anomaly, near the road. Stash was unmarked.

Confirmed Sidorovich sells sets of basic tools at Cordon......found a set of basic tools twice diferent times in sale inventory. Doesn't appear often though.

This was a complaint back when I was using Arsenal Overhaul. Haven't had this issue since switching to STCoP. I don't play vanilla personally so I don't know how good or bad it was there.

Hi.

Not sure what complaint you're talking about......and I'm playing Call of Chernobyl mod with no addons.
