Resist Gear with Pet Bonus
Last time I played was in 2019 and completed the Main quest, Ashes of Malmouth, and Forgotten Gods (Normal) with my Druid.
I was not a completionist.
I didn't do all of the hidden and side quests.
(Side quests like the making of those special keys to get into and go deeper and deeper into dungeons).

So, now I am playing again, this time as a Pet Conjurer.
I am managing no problem so far, but it is quite tiresome constantly farming vendors, looking for better resist gear with pet bonuses.
Oh, I am using my components and all of my gear is higher quality green gear.
But, I was wondering if there are resist pet bonus blueprints or standard stocking items that I can anticipate past ACT I?

I just finished up a couple conjuror pet builds. I have one at level 100 that beats Callagadra, and another one at level 61.

No, there is not much gear with resists for pets. The good news is pet resists aren't really an issue until late game, level 70ish and above. Just be prepared to re-summon the pets one or two times during a big fight. There's not a lot you can do before that.

A few things you can do early to mid game:

--- You will get some resists from devotions.

--- Components for weapon and offhand are Purified Salt and Imbued Silver.

--- Look for green armor items with the suffix "of the Wild" and "of the Untamed" and prefix "Taskmasters". These will be random drops and maybe you'll find a piece at a general vendor. Faction vendors not so much.

--- There are a handful of blue items with pet resists, the big one for Conjuror is Mogdrogen's set you can use at level 72.

--- Bloodsworn signets give pets phys resist and drop only from Karroz in Darkvale Gate.

There are a few other nice MI's you can farm. Look them up in Grim Tools.

My level 61 build has only elemental resist and vitality resist from devotions and items. I also have a belt with some stun resist. Everything else is 0% resist except for the components. It's just not a big deal at this level

The level 100 has all of them at 80% except pierce. There's a whole bunch of good stuff that kicks in around level 90.

Thank you madrigal and gNuff!~©~gNom3™

Curious question.
There was this one section I did with my Druid.
It was one of those areas where you had to make the key to get in.
I can't remember the area, but it was sort of clean city like.
I walked upon this one two step raised cement platform and I was instantly gated in this small area. Maybe 20 foot x 10 foot.
Massive powerful monsters spawned and stuff erupted from the ground like several fountains. My Druid took out about half of them before she died.
It felt like the Charon fight in TQIT, except I was fighting 8 Charon's at once in this spot in GD.

Can the pets of a Conjurer survive something like that?
NOTE: It is truly a question looking for all of your experienced answers.
I'd like to do more with this character than I did with my Druid. 😊

That sounds like Port Valisbury (sp) not awake yet. Yes pets can. You need to keep moving. Watch where ur standing. Have aether resists etc. Will need to resummon most likely. As u found out alot is going on very quickly.
I personally pick devotions that add resists to pets. If u still die there, might want to look it up on wiki or whatever. I never look things up. But pets can survive & get by there. Also what level were you. Sometimes u need to wait & go back when better outfitted & leveled up.

Yes, I believe that was the place.
My Druid was 74th level and specialized in totems.
I have read that the totems are nerfed now, but they were very good in 2019.

In any case, I'm hoping my Conjurer does much better.

Thank you Violesta
