Whether it’s about resisting harmful debuffs or status effects, or about retrieving lost health and ammunition, consumables have a lot of utility in Remnant: From the Ashes. Below, we’ll break down the effects of each of these consumables, as well as provide instructions on how to acquire them.
Most of the consumables listed below can be obtained by exploration. This pertains to hidden locations of the map or secret chests.
Others can be acquired by defeating standard and boss enemies, or to be purchased from vendors. Since they’re Consumables, after all, these carry active effects and have to be applied manually by going to the inventory and selecting the item.
You can equip the useful items to your Quick Item menu. Head over to the Consumables tab and press Square button on your DualShock 4 to assign it to the Quick Item menu.
Now, in-game, you can bring up this mini-menu of items by pressing one of the four d-pad keys.
