How to get Scrap in Remnant 2

Scrap is going to be the main roadblock to your progress in Remnant 2, so it’s good to be aware of these methods as soon as possible.

3. Killing enemies

Killing enemies is the easiest method, as you’ll be actively engaged in combat throughout most of your run time. However, this method is the least effective since it’s totally based on RNG. Many of the enemies don’t drop scrap, and when they do, it’s usually quite low. You can use rings to increase your scrap drop rate and amount, but this will take a while.

2. Opening Chests

Finding a chest is a more effective method to gather this currency as each chest contains around 50 to 150 scrap. These chests are scattered throughout the world, especially in various dungeons, so be on the lookout for them. You can identify these scraps on the map, marked with yellow dots.

1. Sell Lumenite Crystals

The best method to quickly farm plenty of scraps is to sell Lumenite Crystals. You’ll need these crystals to upgrade boss weapons and some other gear enhancements; however, stocking up on scrap should be your priority, as each Lumenite crystal provides 150 scraps.

Lumenite crystals are dropped by killing tough enemies and mini-bosses. You can spawn mini-bosses in an area by clearing out waves of enemies, allowing you to farm Lumenite Crystals endlessly and consequently stock up on scrap quickly. Each biome has 3-4 types of wave bosses, and you’ll learn to identify them pretty quickly. Their spawn is always accompanied by an ominous trumpet.

Those are the three best methods for farming scrap quickly in Remnant 2. While you’re here, also learn how level scaling works and how to reroll your campaign effectively.
