If you were lucky or unlucky enough (depending on your taste for sci-fi worlds) to land on N’Erud, a desolate landscape, and zombie-like creatures is what awaits you. While other worlds give you the quest right from the start, this planet will ask you to explore a bit before tackling the main quest. The NPC that’ll set you on your journey throughout N’Erud in Remnant 2 is The Custodian, and here we’ve prepared a guide to tell you how to find it. While the worlds change for most players, following this guide will get you to the NPC’s location much faster.

When you enter N’Erud, the first biome you’ll spot is the Phantom Wasteland. This is an open area compared to other maps that might challenge players in terms of fighting and exploring. If you want to find The Custodian in Remnant 2, we recommend exploring this first area. Since everything spawns differently for every player, the exact location of this NPC is uncertain. However, The Custodian will always spawn in the Phantom Wasteland of N’Erud.

What Is the Easiest Route To Reach The Custodian?

In truth, this game doesn’t have any easy routes. Even if you clear a bunch of enemies and return to a crystal to heal, all of them will respawn. However, we have a few tips to make your journey in this biome much easier.

Hug the walls
Engage one enemy cluster at a time
Sneak when possible
Run toward the next crystal you see and hold your ground until you defeat all foes.

The final point is one of the best tips we can give you, as the Phantom Wasteland can be pretty dangerous. If you stay under a crystal, you’ll get more cover and can aggro as many enemies as you want to take them down. Of course, bringing other friends will make your journey much easier.

What the Remnant 2 Preload & Unlock Times Are

And that’s how to find The Custodian in Remnant 2. As soon as you find this NPC, you might get one of the quests on this planet that will send you exploring other areas. This is a fun game, as players will always get something different, regardless of being in the same world.

Remnant 2 launches on July 21 on Early Access with a full launch on July 25 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
