Remnant 2 has a plethora of rings and amulets that serve the purpose of providing the player with different buffs like improved health or damage and, if used correctly, can be the key to an overpowered build.
This Ring is an ideal choice for elemental damage builds. In this guide, we’ll explore where the ring is located, its stats and effects, and which build can get the most out of this ring in Remnant 2.
Stone of Malevolence location in Remnant 2
You can find this ring in the Losomn region. After getting there, you need to find this ring in three places. One of these locations will have the Stone of Malevolence: The Great Hall, Forsaken Quarter, and Gilded Chambers.
You can reroll and reset the progress if you haven’t found this ring in these places. You can also look for the chest and kill enemies with the Stone of Malevolence ring in the drops.
Stone of Malevolence effects
The Stone of Malevolence ring is strong in terms of elemental power. This is because if you deal elemental damage to enemies, the ring will increase the Mod power of both your equipped weapons by 15%.
If you have the Merciless long gun (which comes equipped with Bleed damage) and you use it when this ring is equipped, you can quickly recharge and reuse the Mod.
You will get enough Mod power to recharge it on one gun before the other one fizzles out. Thus, giving you infinite Mod firing ability.
Stone of Malevolence builds
The Stone of Malevolence in Remnant 2 is a powerful ring if you know how it works and how to use it correctly.
This ring will make you exceptionally powerful if you are an elemental damage dealer like Acid damage, Shock damage, Bleed damage or fire damage, etc.
It also helps if you deal elemental damage through the weapon mod because it will help to generate the Mod power more quickly. Now the build you can use with this weapon is the Strong Hunter build with high DPS.
This build uses the Pulse rifle with acid rounds to deal magical damage and Enigma, which deals elemental shock damage.
The skills used are the Bullet Storm and Dead to Rights. Both these skills can be used infinite times without waiting when you have equipped the Stone of Malevolence.
Pairing the Stone of Malevolence with Burden of the Follower further enhances your mod use as it increases mod generation by 50%. However, it reduces the fire rate of weapons by 15%.
Stone of Malevolence bug Remnant 2
In earlier versions of the game, there was a bug that allowed mod power to recharge for a gun while the mod was in active use. This glitch made the Stone of Malevolence extremely overpowered. However, it has since been patched. Despite the patch, this ring remains a very powerful piece of gear.
