The main benefit is you will be able to see in a dark room without using your flashlight, thus preventing enemies from being alerted to your presence. Night Vision Goggles: Like the flashlight, this needs to be recharged from time to time, but in the dark areas of the game it can be very useful. Flashlight: Just like a real world counterpart, this will illuminate dark areas, but will need to be recharged and will also alert nearby enemies to your location. Overall, you’ll be using your flashlight a lot more, but the lighter does have its uses. Lighter: Use this when your flashlight won’t work, if you need to light a few torches, or burn some spiderwebs. Pay close attention to Artyom’s watch, his breathing, and the beeps to know when to switch filters. Air Filter: There is no limit to the number of filters you can carry they simply add to an overall total time of clean air. Gas masks are useless without filters though. Therefore, if yours gets damaged, replace it with the next one you find. They can also be damaged and cracked, thus making it very hard to see. You’ll know when you’re there based on how Artyom is breathing. So, when you are outside or in a contaminated area, be sure to use your mask. Gas Mask: The air is toxic except in sealed areas.

Artyom’s health regenerates but, in case you need to give a boost to your health in a dangerous situation, use a medkit. As always feel free to leave constructive comments and questions below or send them to me on twitter, Medkits: You can carry five of these and, just like the name suggests, they heal you when in need. From General Tips to a complete walkthrough broken up into three easy to read parts that takes you through Chapters 1-10, Chapters 11-20, and finally Chapters 21-30.
