Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl features many engaging NPC interactions, often leading to small quests. One such unique encounter is with Lyonchyk Sprat in Rookie Village. His quest involves delivering a joke to other stalkers, potentially gaining him acceptance within their group. This interaction is easily missed, so this guide explains how to find and complete it.
Completing Lyonchyk Sprat's Joke Quest in Rookie Village
Lyonchyk Sprat is found in Rookie Village, Cordon region. Upon arriving at the village center, you'll hear him call out. He'll initially attempt (and fail) to tell Skif a joke.
He'll then ask for your help in delivering a joke to stalkers gathered around a bonfire to make friends. Accepting begins the quest.
Helping Lyonchyk Deliver a Joke
Lyonchyk instructs Skif to climb into the attic and wait for his cue. A ladder leading to an attic is next to the bonfire. Climb up and wait to continue.
You'll be given several joke options, each yielding a different audience reaction. However, selecting any option results in a successful joke delivery and quest completion.
Receiving Your Reward from Lyonchyk
After the interaction, climb down and speak to Lyonchyk, who remains in his initial location. He'll thank you and reward you with 900 coupons.
Failure occurs if you don't select a joke prompt, letting Lyonchyk deliver it alone. He'll run off crying, blaming Skif.
