The Shining Essence Echo is a crafting material inRemnant 2that players can exchange for one of two items. More specifically, fans can turn the material into either the Siphon Heart relic or the Void Idol amulet, though they may be confused about how that is done. This guide is here to alleviate that confusion, and it will help players find the NPCs that can make use of the Shining Essence Echo inRemnant 2.

Remnant 2: Shining Essence Echo Uses

Players that want to use the Shining Essence Echo should set their sights on finding theCustodian, an NPC that is within the spire next to theAscension Spire checkpointonN’Erud. For the uninitiated, this checkpoint is found on theAbyssal RiftandPhantom Wastelandmaps, andRemnant 2playersshould simply target the map that is available in their current roll of N’Erud.

Players that have reached the spire now have two options to consider, the first of which is to interact with theCustodianandgive him the Shining Essence Echo. Fans that pursue this option will receive theSiphon Heartrelic, which grants 10% of base damage dealt as Lifesteal for 10 seconds when used.

Alternatively, players can take the Shining Essence Echo to theDryzr Replicatorand use it to craft theVoid Idolamulet, which increases reload speed by 20% and halves the amount of ammunition that is required to fully reload aweapon inRemnant 2. To locate the Dryzr Replicator, fans should simply look to theseated statuesthat are just inside the spire. Indeed, there is ahole in the ground behind the statues on the left, and fans that fall through it will find themselves in a room with the relevant NPC.

To note, it is possible to claim both the Siphon Heart relic and Void Idol amulet, provided that the player is willing to obtain the Shining Essence Echo twice. While not everyone will be interested in putting time toward that endeavor, some fans will be happy to know that the opportunity to earn the second item is available throughre-rolling inRemnant 2.

Fans will know that they have access to the relevant scenario in their N’Erud roll if it begins at theForgotten Prison, and they will receive the Shining Essence Echo regardless off theTal Ratha choicethat they make.
