How To Get Barkskin Trait In Remnant 2
Remnant 2 handles traits differently from other similar Souls-like games. Many of these stat-altering cards are dispersed across the worlds, rather than having the Trait available right away. This article will discuss a trait known as Barkskin, which like other traits of a similar nature, is locked away in a one-time challenge in remnant 2.
A trait called Barkskin lowers all incoming damage by a percentage ranging from 1% to 10%. Damage reduction operates somewhat differently from the Armor value of your character. First of all, both values strengthen your defense as a whole, offsetting the Wanderer’s health damage. Second, some attacks in the game are able to get past Armor. This also applies to status effects that significantly lower Armor, such as Corrusive. DR assists in reducing some of the harm.
Remnant 2 Barkskin Trait
Barkskin is a trait in remnant 2 that completely shields against all forms of damage by reducing all incoming damage.
In Remnant 2, the Barkskin Trait is an optional trait that you can only get by finishing specific tasks or goals. You are less likely to miss these traits than Core traits, which are the same for all four classes, and Archetype traits, which are traits that you can get through archetypes.
One of the greatest traits for any class that players can discover and acquire is the Barkskin Trait. Owing to the game’s randomly generated dungeons, it is simple to overlook this feature. You need not worry; I will assist you in obtaining the Barkskin Trait without any difficulties.

How to get the Barkskin Trait in Remnant 2?
Finding Meidra, the forest spirit, is the first step towards obtaining the Barkskin Trait in Remnant 2. You may run into her as an amiable NPC while exploring Yaesha’s forests. Depending on your tileset, she may spawn in the first or second Overworld. You can locate her location just before returning to the Ravager’s temple to activate the gears if your set starts in the Forbidden Grove. On the set that begins in the Red Throne, she is situated in a slightly more private area.
But the process of obtaining Barkskin is the same no matter how you locate her. You will have to respond to her first question in a way that the Doe would find acceptable.
Meidra is going to ask five questions, and your responses will determine which of the Doe and Ravager you identify with. There are, as far as we are aware, twenty-five possible questions she could ask.
You will respond to questions in one of two ways each time. You will be in line with the Doe’s values if you choose one of the options. The Ravager is in the same boat. After completing the five questions, you have to align with the Doe in order to receive the Barkskin trait.
It’s not necessary for you to have every answer to match the Doe’s. In our opinion, three of the five are sufficient. Even so, 4 out of 5 on our tests clearly indicate that you can acquire the trait.

In Remnant 2, some players also confuse Bloodstream and Barkskin traits; however, you don’t have to.
Both are beneficial in certain circumstances. Bloodstream increases the rate at which your grey health regenerates during combat, while Barkskin aids with defense. You can pick the choice that fits the way you like to play.
