Publisher Perfect World Entertainment and developer Gunfire Games continue to share the details of Remnant: From the Ashes. Recall: the action of a third-person cooperative action movie with elements of survival takes place in a post-apocalyptic world that has been captured by monsters. This time, the creators talked about the systems for creating weapons and character development.
The project is different in that the difficulty adjusts to the progress of the hero, so that over time, the health of opponents and the damage done grow to astronomical values ββ- to cope with them, systems for improving, creating and modifying weapons are provided.
As the player explores the world, they will find items and valuable parts to be exchanged with merchants in the 13th district (base of operations). They can be used to buy consumables, upgrade equipment, craft weapons, and more. Parts will also drop from destroyed enemies, and rare materials can also be obtained as loot. The stronger the enemy, the more valuable resources are given out for defeating him.
With enough resources, you can turn to the upgrade merchant to increase the damage of the weapon or the level of the character's armor. You can also get some goods from merchants, the assortment of which changes over time. If the weapon or armor is too low, it will be very difficult to counter high-level monsters: even with excellent dodge skills, the player risks wasting their resources.
When the weapons on hand are no longer enough or you want something new, you can replenish your arsenal using the production system. The manufacture of new weapons follows the same principle as the improvement. You should also bring the necessary materials to the gunsmith in district 13 - with the help of very rare finds, you can create a legendary item. These melee or ranged weapons have special effects.
Finally, it is possible to change weapons with the help of special enhancements - mods. You can get a mod by trading with merchants, discovering in the world or crafting. In addition, the starting archetype gets one mod as a bonus: hunters start with a hunter's mark, former cultists with a healer aura, and fighters are given a fire volley. Mods unlock many different effects, from healing to burst shots, and even allow you to see through walls or temporarily summon a monster to help in battle.
Once installed in a weapon slot, the power of the mod is gradually accumulated when dealing damage to enemies. Some mods have only 1 stack of special effects, while others can stack multiple stacks at once, which can then be applied. Changing mods is allowed at any time, but the power level is reset. The right set of mods, weapons and armor is the key to success in the game world.
Remnant: From the Ashes launches August 20 on PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.
