Stalcraft Wiki: Mug
STALCRAFT Meta note
Mug adds Vitality, the third-highest explosion protection among artifacts, a bioinfection purge and a little carry weight. Its downside is a small radiation buildup. Its additional stats can add more Vitality, health regeneration or explosion protection.

In-game description (EXBO)
A creepy gravitational artifact nicknamed "Mug" by stalkers for its resemblance to a human face. Scientists at Research Institute 7 have long tried to determine its composition and structure, but have not reached a consensus. Although all Mug samples look almost identical, they may actually be composed of different debris. Stalkers have noted another feature: two blinking diodes that sync to the bearer's heartbeat. Such similarity of this artifact to the Heart has spawned many tales among the Zone's inhabitants.

How these values are calculated
STALCRAFT Meta recalculates these stats for the level, quality and additional stats you pick, with the artifact model of the Artifact Optimizer and Build Calculator.
Positive stats: top of the stat's range × quality × (1 + 0.3 × level ÷ 15). Hazards grow with quality. One additional stat becomes active every 5 levels.
Container effectiveness is not applied here (100%); the Build Calculator applies the container you choose.
