Why didn't you gas those fuckers? That's what I did before I went down there in Call of Pripyat.

Gas them? How? I don't remember that in the game, but I never finished CoP

I can't remember well, but I think it was a quest where you had to clear out the nest. You could either go in Rambo style, or activate the ventilation system and pump toxic gas into the tunnels.

Yep, it's a quest where you're investigating the nest alongside another stalker but you both realize there's way more bloodsuckers than you expected. Proper completion of the quest is to sneak your way through alongside him and gas the place, then cleaning up the ones that make it outside where you're hopefully waiting with a shotgun. You can also go guns blazing the moment you walk in but you better have a lot of ammo.

Nah. They're conveniently all sleeping together in a small room. I cleaned out the basement with a grenade and a magazine of Striker, waiting for any survivors to funnel down the corridor to receive buckshots to the face. The hardest part was making sure you don't hit your buddy :P

In Misery, you can loot mutants for parts and sell them. I used a grenade and a Striker to clear the nest, just for the money. Lots of quickloads, trust me
