Where to find the Far-Sighted Mutator in Remnant 2

To drop the Far-Sighted Mutator in Remnant 2, you must defeat the Stonewing Lurker mini-boss in the Luminous Vale. This mini-boss is perched quietly on its nest, situated high on one of the back walls in the center of the area, near the base of the ramp leading to the center upper exit. If you look up while standing with your back to the ramp, you should see a winged creature in a red aura. That’s the Stonewing Lurker. Simply shoot it once to trigger the fight.

The battle features no special mechanics, other than the Stonewing Lurker occasionally landing on the ground, making it more susceptible to your attacks. Capitalize on these moments of vulnerability to defeat it. Once you kill the Stonewing Lurker, you get the Far-Sighted Mutator.

The Luminous Vale area is exclusive to the Forgotten Kingdom expansion, so you must own and start the DLC to access it. It’s impossible to get the Far-Sighted Mutator in the base game.

You can upgrade the Far-Sighted Mutator in Remnant 2 by speaking with Dwell in Ward 13, who will charge you Corrupted Lumenite Crystals and Scrap for each upgrade. In the case of this mutator, the only value that changes with higher levels is the ranged damage percentage, while the maximum damage remains the same throughout. This means that as the level of your Far-Sighted Mutator increases, you can be closer to the enemy and still achieve its maximum 25 percent damage boost.
