Remnant 2 class list: How to unlock every archetype/class (1)

Once you've obtained ten traits from either collectingTomes of Knowledgeor collecting them from boss fights in Remnant 2, your character will unlock the ability to use a second archetype. You might be wondering how exactly you get a second one. Don't worry; it confused me a bit too.

I got to grips with the game to write myRemnant 2 review, so I've become familiar with the process. If you have trouble finding the people listed below, use the 3D map to locate them. Hovering over the blue icons on the map will reveal who that character is.

In every instance, you'll need to obtain some item and convert it to an engram by heading toWallace. He's the person who gave you the first class at the beginning of the game. All items cost 1000 scrap to convert into an engram and some another 1500 to buy. So keep a few extra scrap lying around if you're getting ready to unlock your second class/archetype.

Standard classes

Challenger

You'll need to grab theOld Metal ToolfromReggie. He's near the beginning of the right path that leads up toWallace. He's sitting next toMudtoothplaying chess. Talk to him and ask him what he has to trade. He'll have theOld Metal Toolon sale for 1500 scrap in his inventory.

Take this and bring it to Wallace, the man you met for your first archetype. He's up the flight of stairs in the crane. Give him 1000 scrap, and he'll turn the item into aSteel Enswellyou can now equip.

Hunter

Head over toBrabasby the gun range; he's generally leaning on a post near it. Trade 1500 scrap for hisWar Medal. Trade this into Wallace, and for 1000 scrap, he'll give you theSniper War Medalback.

Handler

Another easy one to grab. Talk toDr. Norah; she's over on the far side of the compound in the medial area. Trade with her and buy theMedic Pinfor 1500 scrap. Run to our buddyWallacewith 1000 scrap and turn it into theCaduceus Idol.Enjoy one of the best classes,Medic.

Secret classes

Gunslinger

I found this one entirely by accident. Talk withMudtooth; he's the other guy playing chess byReggie. When talking with him, you'll have the chance to listen to one of his stories, and let me tell you, there are.. a lot. However, he gives you stuff for listening!

You'll need to have made some progress with the main storyline. I wasn't able to get his final story until I turned in my second Segment. Those are the items you get for defeating a world's main boss. In this instance, we get theWorn Cylinder after the last fable is spoken.

Once acquired, either by listening for a legitimate 20 minutes or skipping the dialogue, you'll need to head up toWallace. Again, trade him the standard 1000 scrap and theWorn Cylinder. In return, you'll receive theIron Cylinder. Equip it to unlock theGunslingerclass.

Summoner

First, you'll need to have unlocked Yaesha to obtain the Summoner class. Come back to this guide if you're not yet there. Second, you'll need to do a bit of farming, as well as find aBlood Moon Altar. While I've only done this once, it seems like the altar spawns near the opening area, which makes it slightly easier to find. If not, keep an eye open; it'll appear on your map when you're near it.

Once you find it, you can check out the inventory inside. There's loads of cool armor, gear, and a little item called aFaded Grimoire. Priced at 15Blood Moon Essence. You might have picked up a few at this point. If not, we'll teach you how to get them. You'll have to find these little pink guys.

They come out during what's called theBlood Moon. Simply shooting these little guys will net you the essence you need, but it'll take more than a singleBlood Moonphase to collect them all. Blood Moons spawn randomly throughout the world. For me, I had the best luck farming them in the Faithless Thicket.

One way to boost this is during the fight withthe Ravager. If you choose to kill theDoe, moreBlood Moonevents will happen. Making gathering these suckers much easier. Choose not to, and you'll have to run around the outside areas of Yaesha until you've collected enough.

Once you have them all, return to theBlood Moon Altar, buy theFaded Grimoire, and head back toWallace. Trade it to him, along with 1000 scrap, and you'll get theTome of the Bringerback. Equip it, and you can now summon to your heart's content.

Explorer

This one requires beating the game. After defeating the final boss, they'll drop theBroken Compass. Take this back toWallaceafter the credits roll to gain theGolden Compass, which gives you access to theExplorerarchetype.
