Use Blunt Weapons

Just like the Skeletons, Rancid Remains are also naturally weak to blunt weapons, so using weapons like the Stagbreaker, Bronze Mace, or even the Torch is really effective against them.

Bring Poison Resistance Mead

The attacks of the Rancid Remains can inflict poison on you, so it is recommended that you have some Poison resistance mead on you incase you get hit from their attacks.
