How to Find the Mysterious Stone
Much like all other crafting materials inRemnant 2, the Mysterious Stone does not have a fixed spawn location. In theLosomn, players must be in either theIronboroughorMorrow Parishzones.
From there, players need to keep an eye out for the correctManticorathat drops the Mysterious Stone when killed. As they explore the area, it’s likely that they will be dragged by a Manticora if they stand too close to any of the drainage grates. This will trigger an event called‘Manticora from the Drain.’

The Manticora can be behind any of the drains; there is no distinct visual cue to determine which drain will have the Manticora.
If theplayer is in solo mode, they will wake up inside the Manticora’s lair, atop a pile of bones, and have to battle this mini-boss to complete the event. However, in multiplayer mode, one player will get abducted by the Manticora, and the rest of the team will have to die to continue the event.
The Manticora’s weak spot is his head, so players should aim for it to quickly eliminate this monster. Once the Manticora has been defeated, it drops theMysterious Stone.
How to Use the Mysterious Stone
With the Mysterious Stone in hand, players can head over to Ward 13 andmeet up with the merchantnamed Wallace. Wallace uses the Mysterious Stone to craft a special engram known as the Philosopher’s Stone. This engram can be used to unlock the Alchemist Archetype.
Players with the Alchemist classcan provide powerful buffs to their teammates and increase the team’s strength. As an Alchemist, players can enhance the team’s protective abilities by using potent Vials and consumables.
