Kill chimeras

 is an optional side-mission featured in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Lost Alpha from v1.4000 onwards.

"Have you met chimeras? The most ferocious monsters in Zone. I was even scared to sleep while they're here. Will you kill them?"

- Seriy

Overview

 * The side missions in Lost Alpha are largely symbolic, reward the player far more frugally than in the base game, and detract from the game generally. Why would a player hunt down and recover a body part and off load it for a pittance?
 * This is the sixth such mission given by Seriy and completion is required for progression to the other (poorly rewarding) missions.

Trivia

 * The mission is buggy inasmuch that the previous task in the area (Kill dogs on the Garbage) is unlikely to be completed without interference from the chimera. During that mission they should be ignored as best as is possible and left until this mission.
