I played only 1.4005 and did not discover some of your problems.

With farming money to keep shooting the bandits in Cordon (factory), you can get 1-2000 rubels everytime. Earlier in game 3 bandits, later on 4 bandits.

I never tried to complete a task and buy the item back and complete the same task again. Sidorovich gives 3 task: get flashes eye, tail of blind dog and zombie hand. All are easy to obtain and farm. All you need to do is going around cordon and garbage. Sid gives the best money for mutant parts, until you get the friendship of Milo in Construction yard. I farmed money to go around kill these mutants and repeatedly fulfill the 3 tasks at Sidorovich. You can wait few minutes and Sidorovich offers the same 3 tasks again :D You don't even need to leave the area!

Also, the Bloodsucker gives the mutant part in most of cases, easy loot. You can make it run into the spike anomaly. Not just for easy kill, but the anomaly gives you artifast for it. Repeatedly... but not all the time.

I used the AK for very short time. There were 7 Stalkers in Cordon-factory. I could not save 1 of them. But 6 are still standing. I could buy Enfield L85A1 from one of them :D and I was still in the first area of the game. 6 Stalkers usually kills the bandits, so free loot if you are fast. But I always jumped in front of the bandits as well, to save the stalkers.

Sidorovich and Alex buy all weapons, the condition must be at least 2 and half bars. The weapons are not so bad in most of cases, so almost everything can be sold.

The best price however comes from Milo, but his tasks must be fulfilled first, so he will become a "friend". Maybe the only one seller with friendly stance. From that point, I take everything to him and what is not good enough for him to be sold, I take to Alex who is in the same area. Construction yard anomalies re-produce artifacts just make the flashes and zombies fall into those anomalies :D Sometimes they go into the anomalies no matter where you are. I noticed some areas like this in the game.

When I cleared Forest with an artifact scanner I sold the artifacts for more than 60.000 rubels. It was similar in Radar. And these were just the artifacts that do not respawn.

I gotta admit 1 thing. I had to farm for a week or more in Cordon-Garbage-BarRostok until I could really enjoy the game. And it means that I tried to get 1 piece of every item in the game in Sidorovich's basement. And all weapons and armors upgraded at the actual state of the gameplay :D

I'm near 60% of the game, but I have most weapons and armors fully or almost completely upgraded.

I kill all the boars with knife. If you hit their back 1 swing. From front 2 swings or maximum 3. You need to steer away from their attack and turn and hit. Easy. No ammo wasted. The basic zombies: 1 hit with knife at head. The ghost zombies: 2 pistol headshot, then while on the ground, you can knife them. For Flashes the best way is: 1 single shotgun shell or 2 (the harder type of flashes). Dogs: use only knife. If you upgrade the armor's reliability, the mutant attacks has MUCH less effect on the armor condition.

My biggest problem with the game is the repeated game crashes. I use ATi graphics, so I guess no surprise.
