Talisman Location Master Post

[Kardas]

Last update: December 23 2017

I've seen a ton of individual threads here asking where certain Talismans are. I think this kind of clutters the sub-board, and I offer a solution: A thread detailing where every Talisman in the game can be obtained (and then some)! For those times you can't be bothered loading up your game to check.

If you want to know about how XP runes work with Talismans, see this thread

First some Basics:
The levels of Talismans scale to the difficulty in which they drop. 1* Talismans drop in Normal difficulties, 2* Talismans on Hard difficulty, and 3* Talismans on Madness difficulty. The only exception are Talismans dropped from Skull Quests, which are always 3*. Talisman levels in Brave New World depend on the level you play.
Also, despite what the rewards menu says, all subtypes of certain Talismans drop in their respective worlds. So while the Rewards menu for Ailing Kingdom says that Fierce Strength Talismans drop, you will find Fierce, Safeguard, and Skilled Talismans there.

Also, there is no best level where to get Talismans. RNG is RNG, so some days you'll get tons of Talismans, and other days you'll get very little. In general, farm Talismans on the hardest level you can do for best loot/XP/gold. Higher levels also increase the chance of getting more than one drop upon completing the level.
