Pendants in Alan wake 2 - small jewelry that can be placed on Saga's bracelet to receive upgrades. Each item has its own effect: some develop the girl’s abilities, others give an extra life or some other useful bonus. In the late game, bosses will become stronger, so it won't hurt for the FBI agent to collect as many upgrades as possible.
The task is complicated by the fact that the location of the pendants is not indicated anywhere, and it is also unclear what exactly they can be obtained for. In this guide, we will tell you where to find all the Saga pendants in Alan Wake 2: we will show the location of the items on the map and analyze in which chapters they become available.
What do pendants give in Alan Wake 2?
Charms are small talismans that can be placed in Saga's bracelet to improve her abilities. Each amulet provides additional bonuses, such as a second life or makes it easier to knock down opponents.
Decorations are necessary to facilitate difficult battles with enemies and further progress in the game. In addition, collecting all the talismans will reward you with the achievement "Limb" [Rustic Charm].
Most of the items can be obtained by solving riddles with rhymes; they appear near the drawings if the dolls are installed correctly. Several pendants can be obtained in other ways.
In a separate manual, it is detailed how to solve all nursery rhyme puzzles.
