Perhaps the easiest way to get the Blood Moon Essence in Remnant 2 is to visit the Yaesha region at the right time for them to spawn. However, for that, you will need to wait until there is a Blood Moon active. The only way to find out if the Blood Moon is active or not is simply by looking at it. If you take a look at the sky and find the moon filled with red color, you will know it is the right time.

Once you are in the right place at the right time, carefully observe your surroundings.
Based on Remnant 2’s RNG, you will come across flying red orbs in the sky.
Since these orbs will be at a distance, make sure you equip a good long-range weapon.
Make sure you take these orbs down in a single shot because they do not remain there for long.

Now, if you need to farm more of these orbs and cannot observe much of them, you can simply leave the area to interact with the World Stone and then come back. Apart from that, you can also keep on switching between Root Nexus and Forbidden Grove to get more orbs. In case you do not find the Blood Moon active, you can fast-travel back and forth until it eventually appears.

2. Forgotten Temple And Doe

Once you come across the Water Harp Puzzle quest, you will come across the Root Corrupted Wolf. Upon encountering it, you will have to fight against its rival, the Doe. During that, you will have an option of either sparing or killing the Doe.

While both options come with significant outcomes, for the Blood Moon Essence, you will have to kill the Doe. As you choose that option, the area outside the Forgotten Temple will also become a reliable spot for Blood Moon Essence’s spawn in Remnant 2, making it easier to farm.
