How to get past anomalies at the beginning of Stalker 2

To get out of an anomaly zone in Stalker 2, look in the direction of the anomalies and throw a bolt at it - you can quickly equip bolts by selecting them at the bottom of the radial equipment menu. It doesn't matter whether you throw from above or below, once the bolt hits the anomaly, it will create a temporary passage that you can run through.

It seems simple, but if the anomaly is constantly killing you, you are probably either running too early, too late, or you are touching another anomaly. The passage you create in the anomaly remains open for about 3 seconds, so as Richter says, you need to run at maximum speed. The anomaly itself also has a damage zone with an active radius, which can be deadly even if you do not touch it.

Also, for some reason, there is an anomalous tornado in the anomalous zone. If you get caught in it, you will lose about half of your maximum health. Watch out for the leaf vortex.

Anomalies like these will be common, so be sure to learn how to use bolts.
