Remnant 2 is primarily a co-op multiplayer game, but it’s possible to play solo with the right class. Players can choose their Archetypes from one of a handful of starting classes, but more become available as they progress. Changing Archetypes, once the player has unlocked them, is as easy as equipping the relevant Engram. The shooter is inspired by the Soulslike formula, but it puts greater emphasis on teamwork and collaboration with up to three players. That’s supported by the varied class system.
However, maybe a player’s friends haven’t hopped on the Remnant 2 bandwagon quite yet. Or maybe a thrill-seeking player has decided that multiplayer isn’t enough of a challenge, and wants to seek out a solo run. Whatever the case, while Remnant 2 encourages co-op, it’s entirely possible to run through the game in single-player. For those who want to fly solo, these are the best classes for a single-player run.
As the name implies, Medic is a support starting class in Remnant 2. As such, it’s great for co-op runs, but can’t really keep up in single-player. All the Medic’s Perks and Skills are focused on healing and shielding; their offensive options are few. It’s nice for the solo player to be able to heal themselves, but offensively, it’s one of the weakest classes in the game. Outside of co-op, the Medic class is best avoided.
Alchemist requires unlocking, but as another support class, it’s not worth the effort for solo runs of Remnant 2. The Alchemist has some half-decent starting weapons, especially the high-damage, close-range Double Barrel. The Alchemist Archetype has a slight edge over Medic because their support skills aren’t entirely focused on healing – they have some defensive and attack buffs as well. However, while it’s a great option for a co-op campaign, there are better choices for the solo player.
The Handler Archetype in Remnant 2 has its perks – it comes with an adorable little dog that players can sic against enemies. However, it’s yet another support class, which means it’s not viable in single-player runs. Having a non-human Companion is nice, but its main role is to heal, revive, and buff the party - it’s not like an additional DPS. Also, the solo Handler would have to manage both their and the Companion’s HP, which can be difficult when they also have to pay attention to dealing damage. However, the Companion’s revival ability does come in handy.
