As a fellow Remnant 2 dungeon delver, I know the secrets that await inside the Vault of the Formless. Let‘s conquer this morphing mechanoid labyrinth together and claim the powerful Rupture Cannon reward!
Entering the Shifting Stronghold
The Vault of the Formless lies in wait within the ancient tech biome of N‘Erud. Be ready to face an onslaught machine creatures and sentry turrets as you plunge into its depths.
Based on my experience, I highly recommend bringing AOE and crowd control weapons here. The carbine or beam rifle work wonders for keeping swarming enemies at bay. If you visited the Labyrinth first, the unique Enigma pistol causes singularities that group up foes nicely!
Surviving the Gauntlet
Venturing deeper into the Vault, you‘ll discover it‘s more than just a dungeon – it‘s a massive mechanoid entity. Prepare to traverse the maze-like insides of this shapeless machine god!
The first section functions like a typical dungeon crawl. Clear out the halls and rooms thoroughly before heading to Section 2. Who knows what upgrades or artifacts you may uncover along the way?
Once you pass through the gateway, things take a shocking turn. You emerge into the core of the vault creature itself!
Mechanical arms shift and spiral to open new paths periodically. But don‘t let your guard down yet – you‘ve caught the attention of the creature‘s immune response. It begins flooding the chamber with lesser machinations. Turrets sprout from the floors and aerial drones swarm in as you advance.
| Type | Weakness | Strong Against |
|---|---|---|
| Auto-Turrets | Electric Damage | Warriors/Tanks |
| Aerodrones | Cold Damage | Casters/Healers |
| Maulers | Corrosive Damage | Balanced Builds |
I‘d stick to the sidelines and use the arms as cover until an opening appears. Then utilise mobility skills like dodge and sprint to burst through before it seals shut once more!
Obtaining the Glyph Key
After entering Section 2, wait near the first rotating limb you see. Eventually an entrance will open on its left side – slip inside!
In this cramped room lies the key needed to unlock the potent prize that awaits. Interact with the House Lythla Glyph Key to add it to your inventory.
You‘ll need this to unseal the special door, but first – time to finish off the Vault creature!
Vanquishing the Vigilant Guardian
Continuing forward leads to a final showdown with the Vault entity‘s diminutive doppelganger. It may look small, but it packs a punch!
The boss will shield its eye weakpoint with segmented metal plates. Use kinetic weapons to blast off its armor then target the eye directly.
Once you shatter its shell and destroy the creature‘s core, you‘ll reap the rewards! My preferred strategy here relies on keeping distance while peppering the eye with a rifle whenever it opens. Let me know if you have any other effective tactics!
Rewards: Rupture Cannon and Fitness
Clearing the chaos grants you two excellent upgrades:
Rupture Cannon
This deadly pistol-shotgun hybrid obliterates close range targets. Lacking innate mods, customize it to suit your needs!
| Base Stats | |
|---|---|
| Damage | 126 |
| Mag Size | 12 |
| Reload Speed | Very Slow |
Fantastic for adding some extra punch to your backup weapon swap. It carries enough force to stagger enemies if needed too.
To claim it, use the glyph key on the sealed door, then loot the space coffin inside.
Fitness Trait
Investing points in Fitness bolsters your resilience by increasing evasion range. This pairs excellently with other defensive buffs and mobility options.
I hope these secrets help you conquer the Vault and its eldritch inhabitants. Let me know if you have any other questions – I‘m happy to provide tips from my experience traversing Remnant 2‘s treacherous dungeons!
