By

By now it should be clear that there are tons of secrets to be found in Remnant 2. There are tons of powerful weapons, pieces of gear, and of course, archetypes to unlock and use to take down the game's more challenging bosses and enemies. The archetypes in particular are great to find since they give you essentially a brand new character to level up and spec out, plus some new and unique skills. Outside of the starting roster, none are easy to find, but the Archon is by far the most difficult to get. To help you solve Remnant 2's most tricky puzzle, here's how to unlock the Archon.

How to unlock the Archon

The setup and prep-work for unlocking the Archon class is probably the hardest part. You will need to have unlocked and leveled up both the Invader and Explorer archetypes to start, plus find and equip a very specific set of gear. Here are all the items you need to have and wear on your character before getting started:

  • Void Heart Relic
  • Ford's Scattergun
  • Labyrinth Staff
  • Cube Gun
  • Ring 1: Zania's Malice
  • Ring 2: Anastasija's Inspiration
  • Ring 3: Black Cat Band
  • Ring 4: Amber Moonstone
  • Leto's Amulet
  • Worm Hole skill
  • Fortune Hunter skill

Once you have your entire kit setup as listed above, you can get started.

Step 1: Go into the Fractured Ingress world stone and find the Corrupted Biome Portal in the Labyrinth.

Step 2: The portal will flicker between different areas it will send you, so wait until it shows what looks to be a drop into nothingness and go through.

Step 3: After falling a few moments, the ground will form beneath you and you can run forward to another portal.

Step 4: Use the Biome Portal Key to enter the Backrooms.

Step 5: Once inside, you are on a time limit to find the Strange Box item hidden inside the maze. This is where the Fortune Hunter skill comes in handy to help you locate it fast.

Step 6: If you find it, you can also look around for a few other hidden items, or just wait.

Step 7: Take the item back to Wallace to create the Hexahedron Engram that unlocks the Archon archetype.

How to get Power Armor in Fortnite
The fallout power armor in Fortnite.

As soon as Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 3 was revealed to have a crossover with the Fallout franchise, we all knew it had to include the Power Armor. Now that the season is out, we can confirm that there are not just one, but three different versions of the iconic metal suit to wear, but it may not be quite what you hoped.

Instead of being something you can find and use on the map to become an unstoppable killing machine in like the source material, the Power Armor you can get in Fortnite is just a set of skins. Even if it is just a skin, it looks intimidating, so why not add it to your collection? Here's what it takes to unlock each version.

Because the sets of Power Armor are skins, they need to be unlocked through the battle pass and can't be purchased as of now. The three versions are different-colored variants of the T-60 Power Armor and unlock at different tiers. Here's what level you need to grind to in order to get them all.

Once you've done and seen everything there is in the base Fallout 4 game, it's time to venture out beyond the Commonwealth. The Far Harbor DLC was the first to add an entirely new zone to the game, but it doesn't stick it onto the existing map. It doesn't take long to get yourself to the new island once you know the proper steps, but you need to do a few specific things in the game before it will be an option, and the game won't tell you what those requirements are. This is all you need to know about how to start the Far Harbor DLC in Fallout 4.

How to get XCoins in XDefiant

Every game with an in-game shop like XDefiant also needs its own form of currency. Typically, there's more than one to make things even more complicated. XCoins are the name for Ubisoft's premium currency needed to buy most of the cosmetics, such as skins and animations. Some games allow you to earn small amounts of the premium currency for free, while others only sell it to you in exchange for real cash. You don't have to pay to start playing, but will you need to start spending money once you do? Let's dig in and find the answer.
How to get XCoins
XCoins can only be earned in two ways in XDefiant. The first is to simply purchase them with real money. You can buy bundles of the premium currency in the Store tab of the menu by selecting Get More XCoins. These are the bundles currently available:

500 XCoins: $5
1,000 XCoins: $10
2,100 XCoins: $20
5,750 XCoins: $50
12,000 XCoins: $100
