How do you upgrade the Dragon Heart in Remnant 2?

The Dragon Heart can be upgraded by talking to Wallace, who can be found up a set of stairs in the docks of Ward 13. While you technically have the option to upgrade your Dragon Heart once you first enter the World Crystal, you first require some materials which can only be acquired through playing through the first biome.

In order to upgrade your Dragon Heart, you must have the following materials:

  • Scrap x1000
  • Lumenite Crystal x10
  • Simulacrum x1

Scrap can be found by killing enemies and looting chests, while Lumenite Crystals can be found by killing elite enemies, mini-bosses, and bosses. The rarest of these items, though, is the Simulacrum. There’s typically at least one Simulacrum in every biome, but it’s usually difficult to find. This could be from defeating a unique boss, from a chest, or simply hidden in an out of the way part of the map. Be sure to explore as much as you can if you want to find one.

Once you’ve got enough materials, bring them to Wallace in Ward 13 and he’ll upgrade your Dragon Heart, giving you an extra charge to use in a pinch. This is the same method used to upgrade other relics in the game, though the materials used may be different depending on the relic.
