Ripsaw (Boss Fight) Location in Remnant 2

How to Defeat Ripsaw in Remnant 2

The courtyard of the Asylum is not very big which can be a little difficult for some of the players. As Ripsaw is quick with his feet and can charge against players with a running Chainsaw, it can be devastating if players get stuck in a corner of the courtyard. Players need to stay in the open area where players have the advantage of rolling at least 2 – 3 times to dodge the combo attack of Ripsaw. Shooting at the head of Ripsaw has a chance of dealing with Critical Damage as it is the only Weak Spot of Ripsaw.

However, Ripsaw will try to block the bullets by lifting the Chainsaw in front of his head, and to counter this, players need to bait Ripsaw. Go near Ripsaw as he blocks the bullets and then immediately roll backward. Ripsaw will swing the Chainsaw and give players an opening to re-shoot on his head to deal damage.

While fighting with Ripsaw, players can encounter a QTE where Ripsaw will try to crush them with Chainsaw. To counter this event, players need to mash the button on the screen to fill up the bar. Successfully countering this event will push Ripsaw away and players can get back to shooting his head.

One of the quickest ways to defeat Ripsaw is by having a Handler archetype. The dog will highly assist the players in the fight and deal 60+ damage on each bite. If players use the perk of the handler, it will increase the passive bonus of the players and the damage of the dog. With the high passive bonus, players will be able to melt Ripsaw even before he makes any move.
