The Territorial War side mission in Stalker 2 Cost of Hope DLC is a highly combat-centric quest that involves battling multiple enemy waves within the CNPP. This mission becomes accessible after completing the final story mission, The Price of a Miracle, and its progression varies based on your allegiance to either Freedom or Duty.
This guide offers a comprehensive walkthrough for completing the Territorial War side mission in the Stalker 2 Cost of Hope DLC.
How to complete the Territorial War side mission in Stalker 2 Cost of Hope DLC
To initiate the Territorial War side mission in Stalker 2, proceed to the west side of the CNPP if you aligned with Freedom, or the east side if you chose Duty. Shortly after, a radio broadcast from Zen (Freedom) or Zulu (Duty) will activate the mission.
Before embarking on this mission, ensure you have ample ammunition, as running out during combat will significantly increase the challenge.
Defend the ally outpost
Upon receiving instructions from Zen or Zulu, head to your faction’s primary outpost. Duty players should go east of the Abandoned Checkpoint, while Freedom players should head west, towards the area south of the SF Loading Dock.
Upon arrival, a conflict will already be in progress. Engage in the battle immediately to repel the enemies and secure the outpost.
Force the enemy out of key positions
After securing the outpost, some enemy soldiers will remain in nearby strategic locations. Your next task is to eliminate the enemies at each outpost sequentially.
Note that after clearing an area, you must hold your position until your allies arrive to secure it.
The following locations must be cleared as part of the Territorial War side mission:
- Construction Site
- East Entrance
- Mobile Substation on the Tracks
- WIS-1
- WIS-2
- OPS-1
Capture the enemy outpost
Once all outposts are captured, your final task is to seize the enemy’s main outpost. Head to the location, eliminate all adversaries, and maintain control until the area is secured.
Receive the reward at the Water Purification Facility
Finally, return to the Water Purification Facility to claim your reward. The prize is located on the table next to either Zen or Zulu, depending on your faction.
