Hardened Iron is one of the rare types of iron required to upgrade regular and special weapons to high tier in Remnant 2. The lightweight material is considered to be one of the most strength efficient and durable for upgrading in the game. While the item is required to enhance your weapon further than Galvanized Iron, players will find it a bit hard to come across. And with increasingly difficult bosses and worlds with different biomes, top-tier weapons are a must-have in Remnant 2. So if you want to get your hands on the material and craft the weapons accordingly, here is a guide you should check out further.
How to Obtain Hardened Iron in Remnant 2
Before exploring the worlds and defeating enemies in search of the Hardened Iron in Remnant 2, we recommend you upgrade your weapons until Galvanized Iron. And simultaneously also increase your power level in the process. Upgrading the weapons and having a power level of at least 16 will help obtain drops of the upgrade material. You can acquire them through enemy drops and through exploration. Players can start by exploring the Ward 13 world first in the game. You might come across some Hardened Iron scattered across the game’s main hub. Another option is to purchase it from the female merchant named Cass in Remnant 2. It will cost around 300 scraps for players to buy the material in the game.
Another method through which players have had success in acquiring Hardened Iron is by playing the adventure mode in Remnant 2. On higher difficulty settings players can find it easy to come across the material. You can unlock adventure mode by completing your first world in the game. As mentioned earlier upgrading your weapon and having a higher power level is of utmost importance. Once you have enough Hardened Iron at your disposal you can have your special or regular weapons upgraded. Interact with the NPC named Rigs in Ward 13 to do so. You will find him outside his workshop in the game.
