Remnant II Reveals Warden Archetype Coming With Last DLC
Remnant II’s final DLC, titled “The Dark Horizon,” will bring a brand-new Archetype named the Warden, which fights alongside a drone. The Warden comes with the following abilities.
- Prime Perk: Dynamic – The Prime Perk, Dynamic, allows players to automatically regenerate Shield and greatly increase the base N’Erudian Energy Reserve for the Drone and Turret. For those looking to use Dual Archetypes with the Warden, the Engineer is a perfect Archetype to pair it up with, as the Turret will get a nice energy boost from this Prime Perk.
- Skill: Shield Drone – The Warden truly shines through the use of their secret weapon – the Drone. Players can choose from three variants for it: Shield, Heal, and Combat. For the Shield Drone, while energized, the Drone will constantly grant Shield to the selected ally until they are at 100 percent and will reduce all incoming damage by a small amount.
- Skill: Heal Drone – The Warden can deploy a Heal Drone that constantly heals an ally until their health is fully restored, and passively, it grants a Relic Use Speed buff. If the goal is to keep yourself or an ally alive while boosting Relic functionality, then the Healing Drone is perfect.
- Skill: Combat Drone – Last but not least, when it’s time to go all out and guns blazing, there’s the Combat Drone. Designed to be a constant offensive presence, an energized Combat Drone attacks any threat near the selected ally.
- Archetype Trait: Barrier – To round out the Warden’s kit, there’s the Archetype Trait: Barrier. This unique trait increases the effectiveness of Shields the Warden applies, which means that even when providing protection to an ally, the player will also receive the benefit. When making a Shield build, Barrier is a must.
The DLC releases for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on September 24, priced at $9.99.
