The dark worlds of Remnant 2 are scattered with hidden artifacts dating back to the pre-apocalyptic era. As players explore these haunted locations, they’ll come across many relics and aged items. One such old artifact in the game is the Rusty Medal.

The Rusty Medal serves as a reminder of the bravery and sacrifice of humans who fought in past conflicts. The origin of the medal and the commendations it represented have been forgotten with the passage of time. Despite its age and wear, the Rusty Medal is a special crafting item that is required to unlock the Hunter Archetype. This guide can help players get their hands on the Rusty Medal in Remnant 2.

How to Get the Rusty Medal

Remnant 2 - Talking To Brabus In Ward 13 With Bandit Set On

It’s quite easy for players to get the Rusty Medal. All they have to do is pay a visit to Brabus. He was previously a world boss in Remnant: From the Ashes but now is a merchant who resides in Ward 13. Brabus is usually found at the firing range, where he sells weapons corresponding to a player’s chosen Archetype.

Brabus sells the Rusty Medal to the player in exchange for 1,500 Scrap. Players can find scrap by killing enemies and bosses, opening any crates they find, and completing in-game events and challenges.

How to Use the Rusty Medal

Once players have the Rusty Medal, they can take it over to Wallace, an NPC found near the docks in Ward 13. Wallace specializes in crafting Engrams that are used to unlock new Archetypes. He uses the Rusty Medal and 5 Lumenite Crystals to craft the Sniper War Medal Engram. The War Medal features two guns crossed over each other and gives a sense of pride and honor. Equipping the Sniper War Medal Engram allows players to take on the role of the Hunter.

The Hunter is the only returning class from Remnant: From the Ashes. This archetype is perfect for players who like long-range sniping and prefer exploiting their enemies’ weak points. It is one of the best archetypes in the early game and can be used to create powerful builds, like the Loaded Sharpshooter or Painbringer builds. The Hunter class comes with a unique starter weapon called Huntmaster M1 – a powerful single-shot sniper rifle.
