If you are a fan of time-control powers, you can add a time-freezing ability to your weapon by getting the Broken Timepiece in Remnant 2. It is just one of the many unique and powerful weapon mods in the game that add fun new mechanics to take down your enemies. While some are easy to unlock, this one is not as straightforward.
So let’s take a deeper look at how you can use this item and how you can solve the puzzle that is required in order to get the Broken Timepiece.
How to Craft Time-Lapse mod using Broken Timepiece in Remnant 2
The Broken Timepiece is obtained by completing the Clock Tower event for Hewdas Clock in the Brocwithe Quarter location, which can be found in the Losomn realm. Remnant 2 features generative-level designs that can add replayability, and Hewdas Clock is one such optional dungeon that could or could not generate for your playthrough. If it didn’t, you will have to restart Losomn so that it generates a new layout. With the Broken Timepiece in hand, venturing to obtain the Void Heart can provide additional advantages in battles.
The Broken Timepiece in Remnant 2 only has one use: it serves as a unique crafting material to craft the Time Lapse weapon mod at McCabe. This mod allows you to freeze enemies in your vicinity and apply the SLOW effect on them.
Here are all the items you will need to craft the Time Lapse mod:
- x650 Scrap
- x5 Lumenite Crystal
- x1 Broken Timepiece
