If you want to change archetypes inRemnant 2,expect to put in a lot of work for it. You’ll grind for hours, trying to get the second archetype slot. On top of that, this game’s pretty hard, even on the easiest difficulty. Here’s how to change archetypes inRemnant 2.
When can you change archetypes in Remnant 2?
First and foremost, you can’t change your prime archetype inRemnant 2.If you’ve picked the Gunslinger, for example, you have to stick to that class’ primary abilities unless you start an entirely new game. Thankfully, you can skip the lengthy tutorial.
However, you’re able to get a second archetype inRemnant 2.You’ll need to get your prime archetype to at least Level 10. Then, the second archetype will be available to you. It’s a lengthy process and took me until the end of the second world to reach that level. If you’re struggling with the difficulty of the game, you can reduce it down to Survivor and keep your experience. The only caveat is that you have to restart the game from the beginning.

How to add a secondary archetype
After gathering the item you need, head up to Wallace. He’s by the scaffolding where the less-than-sea-worthy ships lay bare. For example, with Wallace, the Medic class Caduceus Idol can be crafted. You’ll need 1 Medic Pin, 10 Lumenite Crystals, and 1,000 Scrap. Finally, when you have the engram crafted, go to your character menu and select the second archetype slot. It should be flashing in yellow. Confirm the engram you want to be equipped, and you now have that archetype’s abilities.
