The Medic Archetype in Remnant 2 centers on a playstyle focused on supporting the team and ensuring their survival. It excels in healing abilities, but there is more to this character class than just providing aid. With the proper setup, players can transform from a skilled medic to an unstoppable warrior, dealing damage as effectively as they heal.
Presented below is a solo player build for the Remnant 2 Medic that prioritizes high self-sustainability. This build still allows players to contribute effectively in group scenarios, thanks to the Medic's supportive attributes. There will be no need to switch equipment when a friend decides to join the party.
Remnant 2 Offensive Medic Build
Almost every aspect of the Medic's kit revolves around healing. For solo players, it can be advantageous to construct a build solely focused on maintaining their own survival, especially in the most critical of circumstances. The game offers a plethora of items that not only decrease the amount of damage received but also enhance the effectiveness of the player's healing abilities.

This strategy focuses on utilizing Shields and lifesteal to ensure player survival. By maintaining even a small amount of Shield, players will be able to heal a small percentage of the damage they deal, thanks to the Difference Engine's 1.5% base damage lifesteal. This becomes even more powerful when Nightfall's mod is active.
For this build, players have the freedom to choose any Hand Gun they prefer, but it is recommended to have an additional weapon for close quarters combat. The Double Barrel is particularly effective in this scenario, as it synergizes well with the Tightly Wound Coil (gain Shield after utilizing 75% of a weapon's magazine) and the Slayer Mutator (enhances damage on the next shot after reloading). Alternatively, players can switch to the Enigma for its faster group clearing abilities, although a greatsword can also fulfill this role effectively.
Because lifesteal effects and Healing Shield offer excessive healing, players have the option to choose more unique Relic options such as the Quilted Heart or Void Heart. The Quilted Heart, when combined with Rerouting Cable, grants players both Shield and health when rolling, while the Void Heart enhances the player's damage resistance, making all incoming healing effects significantly more impactful.
Opting for the Challenger as the secondary Archetype enhances the player's survivability and effectiveness in close-range combat. Alternatively, players can swap this for the Hunter or Gunslinger Archetype for increased damage.
Remnant 2 is available now on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
