How to Unlock Dual Archetypes in Remnant 2
Getting a second Archetype inRemnant 2can be a little tricky. Before they can unlock the dual class ability, players need toachieve10 Trait Pointsin the game. Doing so adds another slot to the character menu – for the Secondary Archetype.
Next, players need to findspecial items known as Engrams, which can be used to unlock more Archetypes. Initially, players can only equip one Engram at a time, but after unlocking dual class, they can equip two Engrams simultaneously.
Players need tovisit Wallace, a merchantin Ward 13, to craft their Engrams. Wallace requires 10 Lumenite Crystals, 1,000 Scrap, and the special crafting material for each Engram. These items can be purchased from various merchants, found as monster drops, or hidden in different locations.
Once they have the new Engram, players can equip it in its designated slot to enjoy the perks of both primary and secondary archetypes. Additionally, they can change their archetype at any point of the game – for free.
A new archetype always starts at level 1, which means players will have to start leveling it up from scratch.
Having Dual Archetypes means that any XP the player gains will be divided between the two. Additionally, only the Prime Perk of the primary archetype will remain active. Listed below arethe 11 available Archetypesand their required Engrams inRemnant 2.
