Once you get an archetype trait to max level, it can be unlocked for use by any archetype, but this will also eat into the 60-point limit. Things get tricky, however, when you’ve assigned 60 total trait points because, at that point, Remnant 2 cuts you off (the points automatically added to your starting traits and acquired through archetypes don’t count). You gain trait points one at a time by defeating bosses and through randomized drops that show up as dark blue pick-ups in the world.

Remnant 2 characters start with four basic traits: Image: Gunfire Games/Gearbox Publishing via Polygon Remnant 2 traits list But as with everything in Remnant 2, you acquire traits in a variety of different ways. Traits are foundational aspects of your character that you level up with points earned both after defeating bosses and finding special books in the world.

If you’ve ever played a roleplaying game that allows you to level up a character’s stats, you should be most of the way towards understanding how Remnant 2’s traits work.
