Titan Quest 2 players seeking Ancient Embers can optimize their grind through targeted chest farming and hidden events. Here’s how to maximize your progress during the Early Access phase.
⚔️ Chest Farming: Repeatable Ember Source
- Locate the chest above the gambler NPC in the quest hub. Loot it for 5 Embers of Night.
- Relog to reset the chest—repeat until reaching the Early Access cap of 60 Embers.
- While the quest later requests 120 Embers, the NPC becomes inaccessible after 60. Stockpile extras for future updates.
- Rewards include random epic gear like axes or shields, making this the fastest farming method.
🐔 Hidden Chicken Event
- Find a villager mimicking chicken sounds near the quest hub.
- Trade them a Moly to unlock a side task: guide a chicken to 5–6 marked locations.
- One-time rewards: gold, XP, and 10 Embers.
🔥 Quick Ember Boosts
- Destroy the smoke signal near the Girl on the Cliff NPC for an instant 15 Embers.
- Combine this with the chicken event and chest farming to hit the 60-Ember cap efficiently.
