Swapping out your Archetype in Remnant 2 will eventually become quite a common practice. Thanks to the ability to do so without starting a brand new character, you can experiment and switch up your playstyle to suit your mood or better synergize with your teammates. Besides the few you start with, there are many more Archetypes waiting to be unlocked by finding specific items in the randomly generated worlds, such as the Engineer and the Invader. Another well-hidden Archetype in Remnant 2 is the Alchemist, which is why we've concocted the perfect formula to help you unlock it.

How to unlock the Alchemist.

Just like how you had to throw yourself into the deadly fog to unlock the Engineer, unlocking the Alchemist also asks you to do something you would normally avoid.

Step 1: Travel to Losomn and go to the sewers in the Dran area.

Step 2: Find the sewer grates along the walls with bent bars. Some may have items placed in front of them.

Step 3: Stand your character right next to the grates for a few seconds. If you're at the correct grate, the Albino Bone Collector will reach out and pull you inside. If not, try another grate.

Step 4: Once inside, engage the Bone Collector and collect the Mysterious Stone it drops.

Step 5: Travel back to Ward 13 and use this item, plus 10 Lumenite Crystals and 1,000 Scrap to craft the Philosopher's Stone that unlocks the Alchemist Archetype.

The PlayStation Portal wasn't what most people wanted in a new PlayStation handheld. However, it did what it was intended to do very well as an accessory and most people who purchased one ended up enjoying the convenience of streaming your console games to the portable screen. Still, most fans still dreamed of a fully dedicated handheld. While we don't quite have that yet, this new PlayStation Portal feature brings us closer than ever. Here's how you can use the PlayStation Portal to stream PS5 games without a console.

It won't take long before The Zone teaches you one very important tip for surviving in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, which is to avoid fighting whenever possible. You can only carry so many resources, and prolonged fights can leave you with almost nothing left. And that's if you even manage to survive. There are some fights you just can't get around, though, but going in guns blazing isn't the best strategy. There's a handy stealth kill mechanic in Stalker 2, but you won't find it in any of the tutorials.

You have the ability to stealth kill right off the bat, though it is not something the game will ever explain or tell you. It works how you would think, but is tricky enough to pull off that you might not think it's possible even if you try the right thing.

Unless you played any of the previous games, it might come as a surprise to learn just how many immersive sim elements are in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl. In a lot of ways, it is closer to a more hardcore Fallout game than a pure FPS title, with lots of loot, quests, and characters to meet and talk to. One somewhat hidden mechanic is the reputation system. Stalker 2 won't stop you from opening fire on anyone you want, but not without consequence. Upset someone from a particular group, and you'll find yourself being hunted by them until you do something about it. There are enough things in Stalker 2 trying to kill you so if you accidentally angered a group and want to get back in their good graces, here's how you can fix your reputation.
