Hit and run tactics work pretty well. He has a strong life steal that you need to avoid and those meteors, basically just don't stand still and chip away at him.

and the spikes/thorns don't forget about those. When he has spikes on his body DO NOT hit him, only when they are gone otherwise you'll suffer immense something damage.

Be sure you have enough vitality damage resist! The blue guy resist in secondary --

The failsafe "If all else fails"-approach: grab some halfway decent bow or staff at the arms dealer of your choosing, equip that in your off weapon switch, then just inch up those last few steps of stairs until he comes to you. Fire two or three arrows at him, retreat a few steps back down off those stairs. Aggro breaks, and he goes back to center plate. Refresh yourself, maybe quaff an Energy drink, too :D. Rinse, repeat.

Cheesy? Yeah. Also might not be fast, and take quite some rinse cycles, but always works.

For the straightforwawrd approach, Plague debuff helps. Beefing up your pets with Ring/Amu/Staff boons, too. Also don't forget to pack Lightning/Fire/Lifesteal/Energy resist.

Also, scrolls (e.g. Sky's Rage, Cyclops, Frailty) can help a lot. Having a weapon with "Reduced attack speed" effect can come in handy.

Lastly, you might or might not have noticed, that if you die he doesn't autoheal up to full like many others. So die, die, die, and eventually he'll follow your lead :D

And just as a precaution (IDK for sure if this mechanich is still in the game): NEVER position yourself between Typhon and the first statue on the left, the one with the sickle. Typhon hitting that statue used to give him a buff that amps his Lifesteal sky high, so he heals himself back up to full with one or two hits on you or your pets....

Get an hallowed helmet (you can start seeing them on act 2 shops), something else with vitality damage resistance (like demon blood) and dodge the meteors.

Use scrolls. On the Normal difficulty, the Scroll of the Sky's Rage should work well. Then run out of the Typhoon's reach and wait until you can use another scroll.
thanks for your imfo but it is challenging which makes the game one of the best i have played

It's only challenging if you don't know what you're doing. Too many points invested in skills instead of masteries, maybe some useless skills too. For your build i would invest warfare first. Max it and max the dual wield skills, weapon training, onslaught, and maybe ignore pain if you feel squishy. After that get nature and heart of the oak+plague. It's actually pretty strong character, but starts to shine at little higher levels.

And hit and run is good, when it leeches life off you, drink potion and run. Don't hit when it grows spikes. dodge the meteors...etc. Don't know about scrolls, never used a single scroll in about 1000 hours of gameplay, but feel free to try.

No one seems to have mentioned that Typhoon is surrounded by Shrines. There's one of each in the little alcoves surrounding the area.

Use the Battle Marker and Mastery Shrines separately as you need to be cautious with Typhoon and can't just run in his face and spam him. You'll only be able to get a few good hits per shrine so no point stacking both of them.

It goes without saying that you can use the Health/Regen shrines when your potions are on cooldown.

And yes what others are saying is valid too. You have no choice but to Hit and Run, in fact, being stationary on this fight is almost impossible. You have to constantly move to evade all the garbage he throws at you. And you said Nature? Your pets should be sufficiently dope to deal in some damage and you can always heal them.

I have to say you didn't choose the easiest of combinations to play with if you've just started playing.

Wolves are a bad idea in normal difficulty, especially after act 2. If you got a warfare mastery, it makes no sense investing to wolves, other than strenght of the pack. There are lot of things in nature mastery that complement warfare much better than trying to make your wolves deal damage. Of course there is the pet build which uses ancestral horn+wolves, BUT imo you are much better off just dual wielding melee.

This right here is probably the most important piece of information regarding Typhoon and how to beat him.

Shrines? I'm sorry. That is simply the wrong answer. And here's why. you fight typhon again in act 5 and there are no shrines in act 5 during that fight and in act 5 he is even more powerful. so when you run around looking for shrines during that fight in act 5 and aren't any you will get owned. that is the reason your character build should never depend on shrines because at times they just won't exist when you need them the most. Your build just entirely be focused on boosting your main attack weapon or damage spell (prefered range is a necessity if you plan on soloing). forget minions as they will almost get rekt against any formidable boss and total waste of skill points. the second is boost scrolls: ie: warsong, stalwart alliance, frenzy. I used frenzy so many times cuz 80+ damage + 30% movement boost will help you survive. third you need to run with boots. I trashed about 6 blue epic boots and stuck with a yellow 24% movement speed boots. You need to run to survive. wait til you fight Hades solo style and realize there are no shrines. final tip for act 4 is the 4 statues in the center, use them to hide behind his range near one shot attacks, they are more important than the shrines. http://steamcommunity.com/app/475150/discussions/0/133259227530904174/

I would always prefer the "undead" Typhon or Hades over the "original" Typhon. Both "undead" Typhon and Hades are well playable even without the scrolls, but the "original" Typhon is simply too strong for "normal" approach. So I rely on scrolls and hit and run tactic.

I wasn't saying you should have builds relying on shrines. I was merely explaining that at your first encounter with Typhon at around 30-35, your character is nowhere near finished. The shrines are there, I suggested using them and I still claim that they simplify that encounter by a large amount, even trivialize it.
