Approaching the Choice
Understand the pivotal decision in Remnant 2's The Awakened King DLC
In Remnant 2's The Awakened King DLC, players are faced with a crucial decision that will shape their journey. The One True King presents a choice: kill or spare Nimue. This decision carries significant consequences and determines the rewards that await.
But how should players approach this choice? Let's explore the different options and their outcomes to help you make an informed decision.
Beat One True King without Visiting Nimue
Fight the One True King without pursuing his plan
The most straightforward option is to face and defeat the One True King without delving into his plan to kill Nimue. During the preliminary conversation, choose the dialogue option that suggests it's too much hassle.
By taking this path, players can claim the Jewel of the Beholden Ring from Nimue once the boss is defeated. This relic increases Mod Damage by 15% for 10 seconds upon use.
Kill Nimue
Agree to the One True King's plan and carry it out
Alternatively, players can align with the One True King's plan and choose to kill Nimue. This requires visiting Nimue and selecting the dialogue option that signals your intent to end her life.
Upon completing this task, players will receive the Broken Heart Relic. This relic grants an innate 50% Use Speed Bonus and, when used, sets the player's current Health to 50% of their maximum Health over 0.25 seconds.
Afterward, return to the One True King, inform him of your actions, and engage in a final battle to defeat him.
Spare Nimue
Pursue the One True King's plan but choose to spare Nimue
For those who wish to follow the One True King's plan but show mercy to Nimue, there is an option to spare her. During the conversation with the goddess, select the dialogue option that conveys your surrender.
Nimue will reward your compassion with the Nimue's Vow Quest Item. Take this item back to the One True King and defeat him to transform the vow into Nimue's Blood-Marred Vow.
Return to Nimue once more to receive the Gift of the Unbound Amulet. This amulet disables the negative effects of Burden Rings and restricts the maximum Health gained by 20% per disabled effect.
