Best Remnant 2 Traits for Newbies

Each of the Remnant 2 archetypes or the class has a unique trait on top of the basic traits. As the class gains levels or XP, these also keep increasing their level. Once they are maxed out at level 10, even if the archetype is not equipped, the unique trait can be selected, but the only drawback is that its rank will also reset. You will have to either re-equip the archetype or reallocate points.

As you progress further in the game, the game also has traits that can be acquired or discovered. Here is a detailed list of the best traits starting with the basic traits, followed by the archetype and the unlockable ones. 

Vigor

Up to almost +30 HP, Vigor increases your maximum health in the game, improving your survivability. 

Endurance

Up to almost +30 stamina at level 10, Endurance increases your maximum stamina in the game. Given the number of times you will be dodging and sprinting in combat, this is important to have enough stamina to spare. 

Expertise

This will reduce your skill cooldowns and help you use the class abilities more. 

Spirit

This improves your mod power generation in the game. What makes it great is that it will enable you to use the weapon specialisms more. 

Kinship

This, up to almost 80% at level 10, from the Handler Archetype, reduces the friendly fire damage dealt with and received. If you want to try co-op, this is a must-have because sometimes teammates are not very well coordinated, leading to chaos where everyone is firing rounds wildly and lobbing explosives. So you can reduce the hassles and ensure you accidentally do not take down your teammates.  

However, in many cases, you will not require putting points into this trait. This is more the case when you, as your ‘main’, always have the Handler archetype. This is due to Bonded, the class’ Prime perk, which enables your dog companion to revive you and your teammates. 

Triage

From the Medic archetype, this, up to 50% at level 10, increases healing in the game. If you have Trait Points to spare, this is an excellent choice if you are not planning to equip the Medic Archetype simply for the healing boost it gives you. 

Barkskin

This, up to 10% at level 10, gives you the much-required damage reduction in the game. You must first reach Yaesha – The Dappled Glade, to obtain it. You will find Meidra, an NPC who will ask you several questions there. Post this; you will get the Ravager’s gift or the Doe’s Gift. You want the Doe’s gift for netting the Barkskin trait. So make sure you choose the answers representing Doe’s nurturing yet uncompromising and naive nature. 

Scholar

Even though this trait comes very late in the game, it is one of the best ones in Remnant 2. For this, you must defeat the game’s final boss. This, up to 15% XP at level 10, grants an XP bonus in the game. So, to allocate points to it, you will have to respect it immediately. During your post-campaign, adventure mode runs, and campaign rerolls, you will be able to, in a more effective manner, level other classes with it.
