Remnant 2 is a hardcore soulslike shooter that has me completely addicted. From trying out different archetypes, fighting tough bosses, and solving puzzles, I love it all. One puzzle that gave me some trouble was the floating pillars in The Lament. I thought I had to jump, but this only led to me falling to my death. Fortunately, I figured out what to do and am here to share it with you.
How to complete the Jumping Pillar Puzzle in Remnant 2
Despite the name and the appearance, this platforming puzzle is not solved by jumping. Instead, you must follow an invisible path between the pillars. You can reveal this by shooting down. I highly recommend using the Cube Gun, as this will make seeing your shots much easier.
Before taking any steps, shoot the floor space in front of you. The bullets will stop and reveal a shimmering bridge if it is safe to move there. If the bullets are not stopped, you will fall to your death. Follow this method to reach the other side. Once there, you will need Kolket's Razor to open the door. When prompted, inspect Kolket's Razor, turn it over, and interact with it to turn it into Kolket's Key.
Inside I found the Ring of Diversion and spotted a boat hanging from the ceiling. You cannot lower the boat; instead, turn around and walk through the wall to the right of the entry. This will lead you through a secret path and let you get on the boat to claim the Lodestone Crown.
Where to get Kolket's Razor in Remnant 2
Kolket's Razor is a quest item. You can find it by defeating the Wither mini-boss in The Lament. To reach this boss, you must get through the Dial Door puzzle in The Lament. Once inside, inspect the coffin to the right to spawn the boss. Defeat it to get Kolket's Razor, and don't forget to snag the Blood Tinged Ring at the end of the room.
How to open the Lament Dial Door in Remnant 2
To open the Dial Door, you must solve the Dial puzzle in the room with the sarcophaguses. This can be deciphered by inspecting the book at the bottom of the slope in this room. The first page reveals a symbol, which is randomized. Use this symbol and match it to the clothes covering the sarcophagi. When the cloth symbol matches the one in the book, note the symbol on the wall over the sarcophagi. Input these in any order into the dial to open the door.
