Where do I farm legendaries?

[FrankieWuzHere]

Just as the title says... Well to add more info I am playing a Nature+Storm summoner character and I just reached Typhoon on epic. The problem is even with my maxed Nymph/wolves/wisp they still get 1shot even with the nature +hp buff maxed out by him. I found a post about what gear I need for my build (Ring that causes my pets to heal on damage done etc...) But I don't know where I can farm for it. Because obviously I cannot take on Typhoon to try to get it. What's a good enemy/boss to farm for items as a summoner?



(And I heard that summoners have problems in Normal then become OP in Epic-Legendary... But my pets are just as bad now that I'm in Epic as they were in normal at this stage... Do druids suck? :l)

There are no classic farm spots. I like to do a small tour. Starting with the great chest of the centaur boss in sparta, then the chests in the pyramid of gizah and the one of the scorpion boss in fayum. If you strong enough, the you can also tackle the manticore. Finally I go after the 2nd Telkine in Ramses tomb. The tomb itself has many chests and is a very good farming spot and the Telkine has a good drop rate.

They'll actually drop level 40/45 legendaries? 0.o If so then dang thanks man. Guess I'll have to farm my butt off.

You could do the act Telkine - Megalesios, Aktaios, and Ormenos. I know Megalesios drops intelligence legendaries (a specific set), but iirc its casting-speed based, not skillers or pet as you may want.

Some enemies have specific monster armor that can drop in a rare form.
- The only 2 examples I have that might be of use is the Lizards in act 2, first few zones after the starting Scarab tomb. When their natural armor is upgraded is has +1 storm mastery.
- The other example is Stonebinder Cuffs from Gorgons. I would net them from the Gorgon bosses as they always drop the base item. It has +2 all skills, but requires a fair bit of dexterity to use. But if you have a bit and some Reduction items, then it might work.
- Both of these items are green, so remember to socket!

If you haven't picked it up yet, do the crystal of erebus side-quest on act 4, normal difficulty. When completed, it has a 10% chance to have the effect of +1 all skills as a bonus. One per difficulty, per character :-(

I also suggest looking through shops (Maybe in act 3), you would be suprised I think. Not 100% certain, but I think epic difficulty (if not normal) has 'divine' amulets which are +1 to all skills. There are also particular powerfull summoner staffs I hear. Like the greens above, they can be socketed... e.g. A divine amulet:
Demon's blood: +1 all skills, +60% vitality resistance, +35% stun resistance
Ankh of Isis: +180 HP, +105% hp regen, +13% elemental resistance.

Check out the titanquest wikia for a list of relics and charms.
And the location of their drop can be found in a thread on titanquest.net's boards, called "Relic/Charm Farming 2.0" in Immortal throne spoilers section.

More general tips:
- Kill monsters you think wear items, or the particular item slot you are looking for. If you e.g. want a "druid's staff" then you may not find that from non-humanoids.
- There are a few epic/legendary list/guides on gamefaq. They're kinda old, but might give you some ideas for things that would be nice to get.
- Remember to craft a decent artifact. Formulae drop location can be found in a thread on Titanquest called "Arcane Formula Farming Data" in Immortal throne > Gameplay.
- Remember to set the fountain to the closest location to the longest route of one of the bosses you are killing. E.g. You could do Megalesios -> Centaur -> Scorpion of Fayum -> Chang'an act 3 side-quest boss (double gold chest, like scorpion). That way you skip the long way to the first boss and the waypoints are close to the others.

For divine artifacts you can find some gamefaq lists as well. But I could highlight a few:
- Druidic wreath, +1 to nature
- Hand of Gaia, +1 to nature
The following 3 were updated recently with pet buffs:
- Razor claw, physical damage with pets
- Spirit Blight, vitality damage with pets
- Conquerer's mark, +10% speed and +200 vitality.

There is also a Divine artifact called Thoth's Glory, which has +1 to all skills, physical and elemental resistance, and -20% reduction to all requirements. But I do not think you can make that until legendary.

Typhon is usually killed, even by pet users, by kiting him. It just takes longer. Every now and then a pet user will run into an OP hard counter boss to their pets....which you then just kite to death yourself. In Epic the first time this happens is Talos The Gigantic S**thead.

[FrankieWuzHere]

Oh wow that's a ton for all the advice and info guys. And wow a LOT of info.

@SaintD I tried to kite him and he just turns to my pets then and 1shots them :/

Don't use pets as your main damage if you are a druid. Use lighting bolt+refresh, my buddy cleared most content without any problems even on legendary like that. And if you use pets, at least don't waste your points to nymph :D

Nymph is better now and she also buffs everyone. Problem arises if she is your only pet. Otherwise you will not have any problem

Still, druid is not the best pet class, Anything with spirit is. So i would focus on doing damage myself and have summons to tank for me.
