Remnant 2is brim full of challenging enemies, awesome items, and crushingly difficult boss fights. A Soulslike with guns is not only one of the most refreshing takes on the genre, but an absolute blast to play solo and in coop. Take on multiple worlds with procedural generation as you tackle your own patience!Here’s our guide onKeaula’s Rest.
Enemies
You’ll find yourself near a checkpoint at the start. Past that is a large water-trodden arena. You might also notice some pathways that are raised above the water level. Stick to these.
Head to the open door on the side of the arena and make your way forward. For much of the dungeon, your primary foes will be snipers, horrors, and an enemy I’ve dubbed theRootGrenadier. Don’t let the last one hit you; use cover and poke out to hit him. This guy deals death-blowing damage that is otherwise impossible to avoid.
After some time, you’ll come to a locked door. The key for this door is a little further ahead. You’ll know you have it once you’ve picked up theTemple Key. When you’ve grabbed it, return to the door and proceed.
After a few more enemies have been conquered, you’ll come across a derelict room surrounded by foliage and water. In the center of the room will be a statute with an item in front of it calledTear ofKaeula. This item grants two extra relic uses.
The fun starts shortly after, as you’re whisked away to a boss fight. Didn’t you figure out thatKaeula’s Restmeant something was lying in wait?
Boss: Kaeula’s Shadow
One of the most arduous bosses in the game, Kaeula’s Shadow is every bit of fun as it is demanding. He consistently closes the distance between you two by swimming under the arena or maliciously sprinting at you. The worst part is after dealing a portion of damage; he calls forth tentacles that continue to spawn around you until you’ve killed them all.
