The Challengeris anArchetypein Remnant 2. The Challengerin a way acts as a Spiritual Succesor of theScrapperin the first game,Remnant: From the Ashes.He thrives in close combat situations and has an increased survivability, making him an ideal Archetype for the tank role while playing in party. By being mostly a close-combat based Class, the Challenger doesn't rely too much on accuracy. This makesWeaponsthat don't have a high accuracy stat ideal for this class. Franchise beginners, or Souls-like rookies can find theChallengeras the easiest Class to play given its durability and ability to endure damage before going down.Archetypescan be considered the different Classes available in-game. Players' Archetype choice at the beginning of the game is important,but they can change them to another one later on by using another Archetype's item if they so desire.
