In Remnant 2, players will encounter tougher enemies as they progress. To effectively combat these challenges, upgrading weapons is essential for survival.
From handguns to melee weapons, players have the option to upgrade various types of weaponry. However, some players may struggle with this process due to a lack of understanding. Fortunately, this guide will outline simple steps to help players easily upgrade their weapons in Remnant 2. It's important to note that unlike its predecessor, players cannot upgrade their armor in Remnant 2.
How to Upgrade Weapons in Remnant 2
To upgrade weapons in Remnant 2, players must first complete the tutorial section and then proceed to Ward 13, the main hub area. From there, they can follow a few simple steps to upgrade their weapons.
Look for Dion Rigler in a warehouse next to World Stone.
While Rigler is categorized as a merchant, he has nothing to sell. Players can hand over their weapons to Rigler to upgrade them.
Scrap and Iron are essential materials that players must furnish in order to upgrade their weapons. Furthermore, as players progress in their weapon upgrades, they will be required to utilize more superior quality materials, which come at a higher cost in comparison to the standard materials. Some examples of these elevated quality materials comprise:
Iron for +5 Weapon Rank
Forged Iron for +10 Weapon Rank
Galvanized Iron for +15 Weapon Rank
Hardened Iron for +19 Weapon Rank
Simulacrum for +20 Weapon Rank
Players can buy Iron from Cass or find it by looting chests. Additionally, players can buy Scrap from merchants for a reasonable price.
How to Upgrade Boss Weapons in Remnant 2
Upgrading Boss Weapons is similar to upgrading standard weapons, with the only distinction being that Boss Weapons reach their maximum potential at +10 Weapon Rank. Additionally, players must acquire Lumenite Crystals alongside Iron and Scrap to enhance Boss Weapons. Despite the substantial investment of time and materials required for upgrades, the resulting power increase makes it worthwhile. Armed with this knowledge, players can now fully utilize their preferred weapons without feeling the need to replace them simply due to a lack of understanding about the upgrade system.
Remnant 2 is available on Xbox Series S/X, PlayStation 5, and PC.
