Remnant 2 Column of Ruthlessness Puzzle Solution


Where to find the pillared hall of ruthlessness in Remnant 2? How to solve the torch puzzle in the pillared hall? In the past few days, one or the other player of the new Remnant 2, who is currently on the road in Losomn, will perhaps be dealing with this question. Depending on which “variant” you play from the Losomn world, you will find different areas there. If you play the area with the palace, you can get into the pillared hall of ruthlessness via a somewhat hidden entrance. In the columned hall you not only meet a boss, but you also have to solve a small torch puzzle. In this article we have created a short guide with a solution for Column of Ruthlessness.

Find Hypostyle Hall of Ruthlessness

The Hypostyle Hall of Ruthlessness is east of the palace courtyard. To reach the area in Losomn, one must proceed as follows.

  1. Travel to the Palace of Bliss and follow the path down to the library using the elevator to the left of the door.
  2. Follow the path further down until you come to a library. Run up the stairs through the back door and on the wall above you can already see a reference to one of the magic doors, which you have to activate and open with the magic quill from the fool in the Palace of Happiness. To reach the page you have to jump on the bookshelves (see screenshot).
  3. You can now activate the magic door with the magic quill and then use it to get to the pillared hall of ruthlessness.

Boss and puzzles in the pillared hall

As already mentioned, you will now encounter some opponents and the boss opponent named Magister Dullain in the columned hall. There is also a torch puzzle waiting at the end, which can be solved as follows.

  1. In the torch puzzle you have to light up the five torches on both sides in the same color, i.e. either blue or white.
  2. Shooting the torch changes color. The tricky thing about the puzzle is that not only does the torch you hit change color, but also those around it. But with a bit of experimenting, you’ll get it relatively easy. It is important that the colors must be identical on both the left and the right side.

Left to right:

  • 1. Torch – Torch 1 and 2 will change color
  • 2. Torch – Torch 1, 2 and 3 Torch will change color
  • 3. Torch – Torch 2, 3 and 4 torch will change color
  • 4. Torch – Torch 3, 4 and 5 torch will change color
  • 5. Torch – Torch 4 and Torch 5 will change color

The solution of the riddle in the Columned Hall of Ruthlessness is also visible again in the following video.


Depending on whether you chose the white or blue torches, you will receive different rewards. For the white torches there is the ring of the white pawn.
