How to complete the Dark Times mission in Stalker 2
The primary goal of the Dark Times mission is to find the Doctor. His whereabouts are unknown so first we have to start by going to the Hunters Camp in the Red Forest area. Upon reaching there, players will find two hunters Arkhyp Lichen and Hornet. They must interact with them for some time to get clues for finding the latter.
Examine the scene of Gray's death
Arkhyp provides us with the coordinates to the site where Hunter Gray was ambushed by the Mercenaries. Players must investigate the point of interest by accessing the marked location on the map.
Players will get a prompt to find a transmission from Gray which will direct them to discover the location where Hunter Tundra was eliminated. Upon reaching this spot, players will encounter a Sybiont anomaly. After carefully reaching the area, gamers will find Tundra's corpse which can be searched to get the clue required to complete the objective.
