Improving your weapons throughout the game is an important part of the gameplay. If you don’t pay proper attention to your equipment, you’ll unlikely survive in battle. Fortunately, the game has many different ways you can improve your weapons, such as mods or mutators. We will talk about the second of these and rank the best mutators in Remnant 2. Check the list below to find out which mutator will suit your playing style.
6: Slayer
With this mutator, you can increase the damage of your ranged weapons by 10% for 3 seconds after you reload. At first, this may seem like a useless skill that can be used when there are no other mutators, but it is not. Since this is a ranged weapon mutator, all you need to do is stay away from enemies to be able to reload your weapon constantly.
You will have a permanent damage buff if you reload your weapon every 3 seconds. If you upgrade this mutator to the maximum level, you can increase damage by 20% and get an additional bonus of a 15% increase in reload speed.
5: Vengeful Strike
It is one of the best mutators in Remnant 2 for melee weapons that will allow you to increase your attack when you engage in close combat. Applying it will give you a melee buff that will increase your attack by 23% when you have less than 50% life.
It will be useful if enemies come from all sides and you are out of ammo. Over time, you can level up your Mutator and improve your stats, increasing your melee damage to 50% and gaining another 15% chance to deal critical damage.
4: Bandit
Bandit will come in handy for those who always run out of bullets. This useful mutator allows you to return lost ammo back to the magazine of the weapon you were using if you hit the target.
The basic chance of returning is 10%, but if you level Bandit to the maximum, this number will increase to 30%, and you will also increase your Fire Rate to 10% for 3 seconds. Bandit will be most useful when fighting bosses with a large hitbox, which makes them easy to hit.
3: Dervish
Dervish, the mutator you can purchase from Dwell in Ward 13, is designed for melee weapons. If you prefer close combat, then Dervish will be your favorite mutator. At level 1, it will increase melee damage by 20% for 10 seconds.
If you upgrade it to the maximum level, you’ll get a 40% damage increase. In addition, at the last level, you will receive an additional effect that will reduce the cooldown of your skills by 5%. This is very effective in combat, as you can activate the mutator every 5 seconds, thus combining strong melee attacks with your abilities.
2: Extender
Another awesome mutator in Remnant 2 that will solve your ammo problems. Unlike Bandit, it doesn’t return spent ammo but simply increases its total capacity. By using it, you will always have 20% more maximum ammo you can carry, which will allow you to stay in combat longer.
If you upgrade this mutator to the maximum level, prepare for some excellent bonuses. You can load 40% more ammo into your weapon at the maximum level, and your Reload Speed will increase by 15% if the magazine is empty. As a result, with the correct ammo calculation and a sufficient amount of ammo, you can feel more confident in battle.
1: Timewave
Timewave is a unique mutator in Remnant 2 that directly affects gameplay. Using it with hand and long guns, you will apply a slow status to enemies within a 7-meter radius for 3.5 seconds during combat. This is very useful because this way, you can calculate the trajectory of your movement and skilfully avoid enemies by counterattacking and inflicting devastating damage.
By upgrading Timewave to the maximum level, the duration of the effect will increase to 7 seconds, and you will also be able to increase the damage from weapons with this mutator by 15% for enemies with the slow status.
That’s everything you need to know about the best mutators in Remnant 2; hopefully, we helped you pick the proper mutator for your playstyle!
