Illusionist Badge Farm

[Derek Icelord]

Where's the best place to farm (as much as the term can be applied here) Master Illusionist summons for the Illusionist badge?

[Redlynne]

Peregrine Island in town south of Portal Corp.  There are some spawn points for them out in the streets.

 

Ideally speaking you only need ONE Master Illusionist ... who will keep spawning Illusionist pets (that you need to defeat before they despawn for the badge) WITHOUT defeating the Master Illusionist.  It's one of those whole "don't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs" kinds of things.

It is not necessary to defeat the pets, just damage them before they despawn. I made some suggestions in another thread for a couple of hero-side missions that work well to farm them:

3rd or forth mission in the ice minstrel sf will get you the badge in around 2 runs, solo. 

[Jactari]

Basically, you need only one master, true.
But, ideally, you want to have two of them side by side, to keep the spawning rate up to par.

 

If you stroll in Peregrine Island, it happens that there are several dual spots (two master illusionists, two Hercule titans…) on the south oriented sides of the big twin building in the south of Curry Cove.

There are even terraces to sip a drink during your pause.

Nice place to glean illusionists, Zeuses, fake Nemesises…
