How to Get Reset Items in Control Resonant and Respec Your Build
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
A comprehensive guide on how to secure reset items in Control Resonant, detailing vendor purchases, vending machine hunts, boss fights, and arcade challenges.
Experimenting with different builds is half the fun in modern action games, but locking players into permanent choices can ruin that freedom. In Control Resonant, Remedy Entertainment has built a system where respecs are possible, but they require a bit of legwork. Players looking to wipe the slate clean will need three separate reset items to fully refund their investment in weapons, combat abilities, and talents. Since resources are split this way, your early game choices still carry weight until you learn how to source these elusive items.
Polygon has detailed the four primary methods for tracking down reset items across the game world. The most reliable route involves checking in with regional vendors, who stock one reset item per vendor level as you naturally progress and level up zones through exploration and quests. If you prefer a more active hunt, you can track down rogue vending machines hiding in the streets, though you will need to chase down these tricky altered items and clear out surrounding enemies before you claim your reward.
For players who enjoy a stiff challenge, resonant bosses and arcade machines offer the remaining reset items. Most major bosses are clearly marked on your map, though taking them down requires a solid build in the first place. Meanwhile, arcade machines demand high scores across tough gauntlets like parkour courses and survival trials, making them a better target for later in your playthrough when your gear is fully optimized.
