The following is a list of the general threats and bosses in Remnant 2 that we know of so far. This is likely only a fraction of all the threats that will exist in the game.
This page is a work in progress, the list of enemy types, the details of elites and bosses, and the strategies on how to defeat each one of them will be updated in time after the game’s release.
Kaeula’s ShadowA large root-like monster that aims to push players into deep water, effectively limiting their dodging abilities. The challenge here lies more in the arena and boss mechanics than in additional enemies.
CORRUPTED RAVAGER
Corrupted RavagerThe Ravager, first seen in the location of Yaesha in Remnant: From the Ashes, is coming back in Remnant 2 as the Corrupted Ravager. When dealing with the Corrupted Ravager, players are advised to stick to five basic defense moves: dodging, ducking, dipping, diving, and more dodging. When in doubt, running away is also a good option.
How to beat the Corrupted Ravager?
The best way to tackle the Ravager is to keep it at a medium or long distance. The creature is likely to try and leap at the player, so moving to the side and shooting at it continuously is a good approach.However, if/when the Corrupted Ravager consumes The Doe, it gains the ability to start a powerful wave attack and a charge attack, making long-distance counterattacks more challenging.
Attacks & Counters
The Claw Attack involves two diagonal slashes made by the boss right in front of him. Dodge backward and, if necessary, evade again.
The Root Wave attack is a forward wave of energy covering a wide area. Dodge to the sides and keep moving to evade.
The Summon Root Tumbler attack summons several enemies from Corrupted Ravager’s back. The best counter is to kill these summoned enemies as quickly as possible since they make the fight significantly harder.
In the Energy Wave attack (after having eaten the Doe), the Corrupted Ravager attracts everything around it (including the player) towards itself, unleashing a damaging energy wave along with a howl that can stun you if you are close. The only counter to this is preventive, i.e. maintaining distance from the boss. Once caught in the pull and stunned by the howl, you can’t really do much to escape the hit.
The Charge attack is the other attack that comes after the boss eats the Doe. This can be evaded with a timely sidewards dodge and roll.
MOTHER MIND
Mother MindMother Mind’s main attack pattern involves using its clause. It unleashes extensive sweeping attacks and tries to stab players using its claws from above as well.It also has the ability to shatter the platform on which players stand in fact it does this often so you’ve got to be alert and on the move. On defeating the Mother Mind, players receive Trait Points and a Cordyceps Gland enabling them to experiment with new weapon modifications.

This could result in quite a gruesome situation.However, there’s one potential saving grace – the chainsaw the Demolisher uses has a habit of stalling. With any luck, it’ll stop working before it gets to the player.Stay alert and listen for the sound of the chainsaw revving.
