What to do with the Thaen Seed in Remnant 2

By

There are a lot of unique quest items to find in Remnant 2 – including a disgusting severed hand – and the rewards for using them the correct way can be excellent. One of these strange items is the Thaen Seed, which you will find when opening the Ornate Lockbox from The Widow’s Court in Yaesha. This unusual seed has a variety of uses, but deciding on what option you’d like to choose will require you to consider what will benefit your build or gameplay experience most. We’ve compiled the ways you can use the Thaen Seed below to help you make this decision, so read on for everything you need to know.

How to use the Thaen Seed in Remnant 2

There are two ways to use the Thaen Seed, but you can only get one seed per playthrough of The Widow’s Court, so choose wisely. Here are your options.

Plant the Thaen Seed in Ward 13

There is a spot in Ward 13’s garden where you can plant the Thaen Seed, and this is the option we’d recommend overall. By planting the seed here, you’ll be able to return later and pick some fruit that offers you the ability to evade death once after eaten – a pretty impressive boon that could potentially save a run if you get into a bad situation. However, the fruit changes based on how long you wait before picking it, meaning the longer you wait to remove it from the tree, the more HP it can revive you with. There are three options we’re aware of, and we’ve listed them below.

  • Mature Thaen Fruit: Revives you with 30% of your max HP and makes you immune to status effects for 30 seconds.
  • Elder Thaen Fruit: Revives you with 40% of your max HP and makes you immune to status effects for 30 seconds.
  • Celestial Thaen Fruit: Revives you with 50% of your max HP and makes you immune to status effects for 30 seconds.

Once you’ve picked the fruit from the tree, it will eventually regrow again, so be sure to check back regularly to see if you have new fruit.

Offer the Thaen Seed to The Eternal Empress

You can also give the Thaen Seed to The Eternal Empress at The Red Throne. This location can be found in Yaesha, typically on the same playthrough where you found the Ornate Lockbox. When speaking with The Eternal Empress, choose to gift her the seed and she will gift you the Burden of the Rebel ring in return.

The Burden of the Rebel ring reduces skill cooldowns by 15%, but it also reduces the speed of using a Relic by 25%, making it a risky accessory to equip. The better reward is the fact that The Eternal Empress will also ensure that all Pan Warriors will be friendly during your current roll of Yaesha, making things a little easier on you as you continue exploring the biome.

The Red Prince in Remnant 2

Remnant 2 isn't an easy game, and much of its challenge can come from its many bosses that are certain to test whether your build is up to snuff. One of the foes you may come across is an optional boss called The Red Prince, who resides upon a throne within The Gilded Chambers of Losomn. While you won't encounter him on every visit to the biome, finding him provides you with an opportunity to earn some unique items in various ways. If you don't pay him tribute, though, be prepared for he'll be offended and rise from his throne prepared to strike you down – but we won't let that happen, will we?
How to beat The Red Prince
The Red Prince can be found in the Gilded Chambers while exploring Losomn. Speaking with him will provide you with a few different options, each offering its own unique rewards.

If you pay The Red Prince the three Crimson King Coins he requests, you'll skip the boss battle and earn the Bloody Steel Splinter, which can be exchanged with McCabe at Ward 13 for the Blood Draw weapon mod. These coins can be found by farming the teleporting Fae enemies throughout Losomn.
If you kill The Red Prince using the Assassin's Dagger, found by completing the Fae Council quest in Losomn, you'll earn the Crown of the Red Prince helmet.
Killing The Red Prince in any way will earn you the Forlorn Fragment, which you can exchange with McCabe at Ward 13 for the Firestorm weapon mod.

How to beat the Nightweaver in Remnant 2

Remnant 2 has a smorgasbord of unique and punishing boss encounters to push through if you want to see everything in its Soulslike world, but few are as frenetic and occasionally jarring as the Nightweaver. The showdown against this nightmarish foe caps off a long and unsettling trek through Losomn's creepy Sanatorium. If you've come across her and find yourself struggling with her rapid movement and constant barrage of attacks, we'll offer some tips here that might help you make it through the fight alive.
How to beat the Nightweaver in Remnant 2
The Nightweaver is located in Losomn within The Tormented Asylum. She's one of Remnant 2's most challenging bosses due to how fast and erratically she moves around the battlefield. It doesn't help that she has multiple phases throughout different areas of the Sanatorium, eventually making for a very claustrophobic fight once you reach the interior.

At the beginning of the fight, you'll be outside the Sanatorium facing down the Nightweaver as she flies around in various directions, which can make her difficult to hit. During this first phase, the biggest things to look out for are her Spectral Lunge and Icy Spikes attacks. The former is telegraphed by her ascending into the air and beginning to dive, at which point she'll begin swiping viciously in your direction until she reaches you – but careful timing can help you dodge right through her attack to survive the onslaught. The latter is a ranged homing attack, meaning you'll have to either strafe left or right to avoid them or dive out of their way.
