How to locate and obtain Perception Trait in Remnant 2 Dark Horizon?

So, you’re playing Remnant 2 and you’ve heard about this new trait, right? Perception. It’s part of the Dark Horizon DLC that dropped in September 2024. The game’s got this eerie, almost creepy vibe now—thanks to those desolate, haunted landscapes in N’erud. Anyway, the Perception Trait boosts both Haste and Slow effects. That’s kind of a big deal. Why? Because it means you can move faster, and your enemies get slower. Let’s figure out how to get it.

Here’s How to Get Perception Trait

1. You need to complete the Noxious Gas Chamber.
2. Go to the Stagnant Manufactory in N’erud. The place feels abandoned, but don’t let your guard down.
3. There’s a dead body. And some recording goes off, warning you about noxious gas. Like, “Hey, careful, you might die!”
4. Look for the purple canister. That’s the gas. Shoot it fast. If you linger? You’re dead.
5. After shooting it, keep moving. You’re taking contamination damage, so don’t stop for selfies.
6. Once you’ve cleared the first one, it’s rinse and repeat. More canisters. More enemies. Always push forward. There’s this part where you’re climbing structures and dropping down. It’s easy to get lost, but here’s a trick: just go wherever the enemies are.

Tips

• Move fast: Don’t stand there wondering if you should go left or right.
• Enemies first: Always take them down before focusing on the environment.
• Canisters are key: Destroy those or you’re not getting far.

You’re almost at the end. After clearing some more baddies, you’ll reach the final elevator. Take it up. Clear the upper level, and boom—Perception Trait unlocked.

Quick Rundown on Builds that Use Perception

Okay, so now you’ve got Perception. What next? Build time. This trait fits into almost any playstyle, but if you’re optimizing:

• Mix it with a fast-paced Archetype. Something like the Hunter or Gunslinger works wonders.
• Equip armor that balances speed and defense. Too slow? You’re toast.
• Skills that take advantage of time manipulation (Haste/Slow effects) will amplify Perception’s power.

When you’re bored with your current build or stuck on a level, switch it up. The game gives you so many tools for a reason. And Perception is one of those tools that can change the flow of combat in your favor.

Hope that helps! It’s a messy path to get the Perception Trait, but totally worth it.
