The Invader is an Archetype in Remnant 2. The Invader is a highly specialized character archetype that excels in elusiveness and misdirection on the battlefield. Their unique abilities allow them to deploy decoys, drawing enemy attention away from allies. With enhanced damage, reduced threat generation, and temporary invincibility, they strategically manipulate space-time to gain the upper hand in combat. Archetypes can 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.

Damage Perk lol olny extra is the Worm Hole skill for me and the rest its the same game play style as before lol even still jusing same starting armor that is copy of the Drifters armor from first game XD build still holding good even on apocalypse difficulty. :)

You have to trigger the prime perk on bosses as they are attacking you so you can take advantage in a split second. This is the ultimate high skill archetype.

Void cloak + devoured loop + stacking crit on a fast firing weapon = immortal dodge tank

This what I would call a recessive archetype. That is, the prime perk is not so good that you simply HAVE to use it. Maybe if the decoys lasted longer, counted as summons, or attacked in some way THEN this would be much better archetype in general.

This is one of the BEST archetypes in the game to pair with Challenger for close range shenanigans. Depending on your build you will have to decide which will be primary obviously. For instance, if you are focusing on leech I'd use Invader as primary.

So that "big open area near the checkpoint at Corrupted Harbor" is actually past the horde-encounter fog-gate a little further ahead. Just turn right from where you first enter the arena.

Super fun class, wormhole is great for just zipping around . Stack move speed and ur blasting.

ngl, the shark passive is just plain bad, most other archetypes have a similar damage bonus without needing to build up stacks and with some being less limited in what damage is boosted

Part of me thought this was going to be a class where you invade other people's worlds.
Idk why I thought PvP was in the game but the title is misleading.

In case anyone has trouble finding the right area; its through an unmarked doorway inside the engine arena encounter (the one you get the Wayfarer trait from). The path should lead up to a big open area with the petrified/sleeping walker in the middle for you to interact with. Note there will be enemies and an elite spawn when you go near it.

SHARK doesn't work at all, but it looks good. Is obviously a bug.

Starting ranged equipment is incorrect, it is the coach gun and service pistol

When i chose invade as starting class i was given the coach gun
A couple of notes: First, if you die while fighting bane, you have to get another Walker's Dream, so it's best to just use it right where you get it. Second, once you kill bane, you can quit to the main menu and load back in to return to the normal world.

Just wanted to add this. If someone has the DreamWalker melee weapon, they can start the boss fight for people who do not have the weapon.
1 super strong class. it helped me get through hardcore mode.. but really note it requires a very high level of skill and is not really useful in the basic levels as we can withstand the attack but can't die at all

I struggle to enjoy this arch or make anything good out of it. Honestly I hate it. I’ve beaten the game on apocalypse and hardcore. Never once was this an arch that filled a particular need. Every time I have an idea for this arch I am over it and disgusted with it within 15 minutes of trying it. I’m not saying this is a bad arch, only that I’ve never been able to make it as good, let alone better, vs my other builds.
