Dawn of the Hunt update recently. So, it's a good time to get back into the game and test all novelties. Of course, that means you'll be farming items again. Today we talk about one of them – Lycosidae Rampart Tower Shield.

Where to find Lycosidae Rampart Tower Shield in PoE2?

Lycosidae is a really useful unique Rampart Tower Shield. However, you must be at level 28 and have 52 strength to use it. Moreover, being lucky can be also useful. This is because it takes time to acquire this item. So, where to find it?

There is no specific opponent to drop it. You can obtain it by farming enemies, especially bosses and unique monsters. Of course, that you have better chances of getting this item when you farm high-level opponents. In this case aim at minimum level 28. So, your first chance to find Lycosidae Rampart Tower Shield is in Act 2.
Theoretically, if you have Orb of Chance, you can try to use this on a normal (white rarity) Rampart Tower Shield. If everything works as intended, this should give you a chance to obtain this unique equipment (we did not test it though). However, you must keep in mind that there is a risk that you will lose the base and get nothing or something else.
If you run out of patience, you can buy this item on the official PoE 2 market.

Why is Lycosidae Rampart Tower Shield so sought after?

The basic thing to know about Lycosidae Rampart is that it is a good tower shield, so if your build uses it, you can think about adding it to your collection. However, it is especially important for Huntress and her Amazon Ascendancy. Why is that so? It doubles the Accuracy Rating. So, many players use it as one of their key unique items.
