The ambit ember, though critical for the navigation of N'Erud as well as my own personal survival, can be poisonous to lifeforms of lesser intellect. This might have mattered more had we discovered any such lifeforms.

Remnant 2 Gas Giant Notes & Trivia

  • Tal'Ratha spent eons in his chamber, the last one of his kind—the last of any sentient life in his entire universe. How can that have any effect but driving a person insane? 
  • Melee Weapons are up-close and personal Weapons, and can be upgraded as well as bought from Merchants or found throughout the world of Remnant 2.
  • Despite being described as an explosion, the effect of the infiused backdash charge attack does not benefit from Blasting Cap Ring nor the Detonation Trigger amulet.

      I don't know if this is just after patch or not but it seems that the part where it "applies corroded with basic attacks" only attaches to a max of two enemies (at least on the gun range that I noticed) but you can still do the DB mod and the normal effect on separate enemies at the same time, giving you an additional corrosion effect for up to at least 4 enemies that way on the gun range.

        So you can use the charged neutral dodge attack on Gas Giant to proc corrosive on yourself. Why would you want this? Well... it instantly caps out Hardcore Metal Band to the max 5 Bulwark. You can offset the damage with Tranquil Heart. There are other combos like Neckbone Necklace, Tempest Conduit, Alchemy Stone, etc.

        All in all, you can get
        25% DR
        35% All Damage
        5% Lifesteal
        50% Status Resistance
        20 Corrosive Resist
        Just from the items listed and still have a free ring slot.

          This thing with the status creates explosion aoe amulet + time keepers jewel + bleed on charge melee ring is the best add clear melee I've found so far, coupled with nebula and twisting wounds and you have a setup that eats through apoc runs...not amazing on bosses though.

            FYI you are immune to poison damage after you do a poison aoe for 5 seconds, which can be refreshed by doing another.

            Although, it can only be reset right at the last second.

            if you do take poison damage from your own aoe, outside of the 5 second window, you will take acid damage for 30 seconds. (1.7 acid damage & 10% more damage taken (the tic may differ idk))

              Special weapons increase 14-16% damage for each upgrade and can be upgraded up 10 times, regular weapons increase 7-9% for each upgrade and can be upgraded up 20 times.
              Gas Giant increases 7-9% for each upgrade and can be upgraded up 10 times, pretty sure it's bugged.

                the acid cloud on infused (aka do enough damage and it starts glowing) backstep charge attack is bugged atm, can friendly fire yourself and allies (summons and the like included). easy enough to avoid by simply not using it but like... that's half the point of this thing lol
