Hidden Items
Here's a list of the hidden items you're going to encounter in the game. Some of them randomly spawn in dungeons, so if you have not found them in a set location, keep looking. You're going to need a handful of these items to find other armor and weapons along the way.
Strange Coin
There are some folks who might see a coin like this as a mistake, others might find it charming, some might even think it's lucky.



  • Can be found randomly anywhere on Earth.
  • Higher chances to spawn in dungeons.
  • You can give this item to Ace, and she will reward you with Magnum Revolver and 300 Scrap.
Tarnished Ring
This ring looks worn but well loved, polished from constant wear.



  • Can be given to Reggie to receive a reward.
  • Reward: Scavenger Trait.
  • Can be found at a random location at Earth.
Control Rod
The Hounds were the old Buri's family. I guess even family will turn on you, given the right motivation.



  • Place the Control Rod into the chest of the Vyr automaton outside of Wud's shop in Rhom and it will activate. This begins a boss fight against the Ancient Construct, which yields the Ancient Core.
  • Drop by Maul
  • Break the Houndmaster's "HEAD", a couple of shots or a shotgun blast will do the trick and when it starts to glow, the control rod should be visible. Maul will then attack it's master. If you die the Houndmaster will not respawn and you will recieve the Control Rod when Maul is defeated provided that the device has been broken before.
Strange Curio
Many Faces traveled with the Pan from their homeland across the Dark Sea to the lush world of Yaesha. It guarded them all that time, but in the end, it was Many Faces who needed guarding.



  • Strange Curio is used to open a dungeon at Yaesha that contains Radiant Visage.
  • Can be found at Yaesha in the back of the cart of the Stuck Merchant.
Pocket Watch

  • Brabus, the boss in the Depot, is Brabus Junior. If you possess the pocket watch when you engage him, he will ask for it. If you give it to him and answer "An old man gave it to me," and "He said he wanted to give it to his son, but couldn't wait any more," the boss fight is skipped, and the player receives a full suit of Bandit Armor.

Melee Weapon Type: Claws


  • The Scar of the Jungle God is found by completing the Bell Puzzle in the Ravager's Haunt before going up to the cave where the Ravager sleeps. You have to complete the puzzle quickly or the dialogue won't trigger in order for you to get the claws from the Ravager. As long as you do not approach the cave you can attempt the puzzle as many times as you want.
  • If we were to map out the bells with numbers from the entrance: right bell is 1, left bell is 2, center bell is 3, back left bell is 4, back right bell is 5. Following that layout, the solution for the Ravager Bells would be: 5-1-5-1-2-3-4-1. You have to do this relatively quickly, especially if you aren't in a group that can help hit the bells. If you do it too slowly, it won't trigger and you'll have to try again. If you do it correctly you'll gain experience and some dialogue will play. After that, go talk to the big wolf named Ravager in the cave.

I would just like to take a moment and say thank you for making this guide, been a long time fan of remnant but nobody made a guide like this back when it was first released so stuff like the sub-machine gun and the drifters armor were happy little accidents back in the day
Jz  [author] 28 Nov, 2020 @ 5:56pm 
What'd you mean 2 of 10 in a dungeon, When i say DUNGEON it could be anywhere in the Dungeon, I said it can be found RANDOMLY anywhere on Earth. HIGHER chances to spawn in dungeons WHICH mean low chances spawn in Earth Event or Bosses or Sub region, Who the F care it spawn on the street, behind the building, at your house, my house, your teacher's house. What did you say? street? behind the building? It all located in the ffffff dungeon. Same goes back to you, You should probably take a bit longer to learn the game a bit before writing a comment. And yes if you don't like my 'guide' gtfo please. Thank you, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
