As you explore the many worlds Gunfire Games on offer, you may find yourself afflicted with ailments that cut into your stats, cause you to take more damage, or become unable to use any abilities, among other debuffs.

The Cursed status affliction will be of particular nuisance for players throughout their time with the game’s first DLC, The Awakened King. This DLC takes players back to rat-infested streets and gilded halls of Losomn, and many of the One True King’s loyal servants have attacks that inflict Curses on players. You’ll need to bring plenty of cures with you while you play through this new storyline.

Where to get status effect cures in Remnant 2

Before you set out on your travels, consider buying some medicine from Dr. Norah, Ward 13’s town doctor. She sells a variety of salves and ointments that can cure the many status effects you’ll encounter as you travel the worlds of Yaesha, Losomn, and more.

You may also find these items out in different worlds, especially from chests. If there’s a particular status condition you’re struggling with, however, it’s a safe bet to just go ahead and stock up from Ward 13. While there, you may want to consider upgrading weapons, crafting mods, and unlocking different class archetypes.
