How to unlock the A Friend in Need achievement in Minecraft Dungeons - Definitive Guide

Edit: Updated the guide based on comments. Thanks for the additional info!

You need to find the following items and use it at least once to summon the allies.

Wonderful Wheat - Llama
Tasty Bone - Wolf
Golem Kit - Iron Golem

There are more than one place where these can be found, but the following are locations where you can find them in the chest you get after beating the level. This is one of several items that can spawn in that chest, but you have very good chance to get them.

Tasty bone can be found in Creeper Woods on any difficulty.
Wonderful Wheat can be found in Cactus Canyon and Obsidian Pinnacle on any difficulty.
Golem Kit can be found on Pumpkin Pastures on Apocalyptic difficulty.

Wheat and Golem may be level locked and does not spawn until you are higher than a certain level. Golem Kit for example, only spawned for me after I hit level 53 which is lowest level of artifacts in that area for Apocalyptic difficulty.

You can also buy these from the store that sells the artifacts (left of the mission select). The store gives you random items based on your level, so wheat and golem may not spawn until you reach a certain level. (It has been confirmed by a few people that all can be bought from the store.)

Once you have the item, equip it and use it to unlock this achievement.

You are also able to get these by buying stuff from the Wandering Trader at camp, although I cannot confirm this for the Golem Kit.

Got wheat on default as well.
Also, surprised they didn't make this have 4 pets, since Spelunker armor gives you a bat.

Thanks all for the comments. I have updated based on your findings.

@Xelliz: It does say use artifacts to summon. I guess they left the armor out because of that reason.

I am aware, I just meant that I feel like given the name and the requirements, that it could have easily included the bat from the armor.

Got the Wheat at the end of a mission while I was level 11 playing on the easiest difficulty. Might be completely random drops.

Seconding confirmation of getting the Golem Kit from the camp's artifact trader. Level 41 on Apocalypse. Came out as a 79 power level item. Have also previously gotten the wheat and bone from him, so all 3 should be able to be gotten from him.

My son, who hasn't beaten default yet, went into my wife's apocalypse world and managed to buy a golem from the artifact store. So, if you know someone who's got apocalypse unlocked, save your emeralds and go shopping there.

Around my 6th playthrough of Pumpkin on Apocalypse I got the Golem. I was shocked bc it was a random drop from an enemy. Not a chest. Not after beating the level. Killed a small enemy and there it was!

Golem kit was missing on me. After a few tries on Pumpkin Pastures, no luck getting it from final chest. Luckily, i saw it on Luxury Merchant. Bought for 1.000 gems. Thank you for this guide, very helpful. Got the achievement summoning all three allies on Camp. Not need to be in a mission.

some people said you can buy golem kit once you have hit lvl 53 but i was passed lvl 53 and never could buy it from the wandering trader i only got it by completing the game on adventure difficulty

1, tasty bone can be done in creeper woods

2, wonderful wheat can be done in cacti canyon

3, golem kit can be done in pumpkin pastures you can only get this artifact on this level when you have completed the game on adventure mode that only way i got it

i was at level 60 with power 105. I didn't found Golem Kit in Pumpkin Pastures. I re-played the level 2 times on Apocalypse mode. So, when i traded 300 emeralds with the trader (that gives you artifacts) i got a Golem Kit with power 103.

Stuck on 66% as well. Summoned all three at one time multiple times, in camp and in a mission. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game and sill no dice.

*Edit (12/14/2021) The Title update must have fixed this bug. Just summoned my Golem in camp and the achievement popped.*

There IS NO LEVEL CAP/LOCK FOR THESE ITEMS. It's 100% luck!!!
It's one of two options: just get to Apocalypse


How to obtain the Wheat (Lama):
Difficulty: All
Where to get it?:
Level (Apocalypse): Cacti Canyon, Obsidian Pinnacle
Level (Adventure): Cacti Canyon, Obsidian Pinnacle
Level (Default): Cacti Canyon, Obsidian Pinnacle
OR Wandering Trader at the camp

How to obtain the Tasty Bone (Wolf)::
Difficulty: ALL
Where to get it?:
Level (Apocalypse): Creeper Woods, Redstone Mines,
Level (Adventure): Creeper Woods, Redstone Mines,
Level (Default): Creeper Woods
OR Wandering Trader at the camp

How to obtain the Iron Golem Kit (For Iron Golem):
Difficulty: Apocalypse
Where to get it?:
Level: Pumpkin Pastures (Maybe the secret level but I haven't unlocked it)
OR Wandering Trader at the camp

As stated above these are 100% luck drops or trades. I wish you all luck!

Edit: I was watching videos and talking to a few players. Turns out the most common way people have gotten the Iron Golem Kit is the Wandering Trader. Hope this helps!

These allies are summoned through artifacts. These artifacts are unlocked in 3 main ways: through the reward chest for completing a level, by purchasing a random artifact from the wandering trader (joins your camp early in the Default playthrough), and through the random set drops for each level (these can be viewed from the level select map, but don't guarantee that the specific item will drop in your playthrough). The artifacts you need to unlock are the Wonderful Wheat (Llama), Tasty Bone (Wolf), and Golem Kit (Iron Golem). While the first two can be unlocked at any point thanks to RNG, the Golem Kit only becomes available as an unlock after completing the game on both Default and Adventurer difficulty.

This seemed to unlock for me without the iron golem, but instead using the soul lantern to summon the Soul Wizard

This should be able to be found in the following missions:
Creepy Crypt
Cacti Canyon
Underhalls
Soul Sand Valley (DLC)

I did use the wonderful wheat, and the tasty bone, but I noticed I did not have anything for a golem so I tried the soul lantern instead, and it shockingly worked.

I spawned all three within the camp as well, not sure if that makes a difference in the conditions of unlocking this without the golem

You'll probably get the Tasty Bone for summoning the wolf during normal gameplay.
Regarding the llama & golem, go on a tower run and you'll get one if not both artifacts needed for their summoning. I got the Golem Kit quite early in a run and the Wonderful Wheat a little while later.
I got the Wonderful Wheat from a daily quest reward too, though that was just lucky.

In short, a dog with a llama appears on any difficulty (I got it on normal difficulty). The golem can only be found at the apocalypse in Pumpkin Pastures, or you can even simpler, just buy it from the Merchant at level 60+.

The wolf fell at the beginning of the first playthrough, so the hint is not correct.
