It is a matter of opinion. I have tried several things and with the auto target system I feel bow performs better then melee. So I would say hunting/dream is probably best. Followed by hunting/rogue. So I would say hunting/dream is probably best. Followed by hunting/rogue. I am currently leveling a hunting rogue to combine spread shot and mandrake root then bleed synergies, and I personally really enjoy the construct bonus.

• Dream mastery is overpowered. As long as you pick two good mastery spheres, you'll be okay. You can always reset your points, for a cost. The cost maxes out at a level that is pretty manageable at higher levels.

• Get the expansion, there is no item storage in the original.

Ranger (archer)- Ishida, Death from Afar. 1) – Overview – The ranger was the first character I played in TQ and still easily one of my favourites. Despite being something of a late bloomer, he can survive in any situation, put out an insane level of piercing damage from range, use pets to cover his. Che guevara una vida revolucionaria de jon lee anderson pdf files. and move through legendary at a very decent pace. Titan Quest is one of the old ARPG classics that have probably had a great influence on the future of the genre. The anniversary edition that came out in 2016, with the subsequent expansions in 2017 and 2019 have breathed fresh air into the life of an old classic.

• Mages are a lot harder to play than warriors. If you're going to do a mage, you might want a buddy.

• This website is really useful if you are having a hard time finding something for a quest or for any general help: http://www.gamebanshee.com/titanquest/.

• Popular combinations are Warfare/Dream Mastery for the ultimate melee machine. Or Hunting/Dream Mastery for potentially devastating bow attacks that can decimate entire groups at a time. Hunting/Rogue is also popular for spear wielding.

• These are hands down the most powerful classes, but not the only playable ones. I recommend against Dream being your primary mastery, despite it being the most overpowered one. It works best as a backup and you can pretty much attach it to any other mastery and make a powerful class.

• I recommend, once you get a certain distance into the game, to download and try out TQ Defiler. It's a very handy program. It's technically a cheat program, but respecs in Titan Quest are absurdly expensive and Defiler makes it easy. It also has a few other handy features, such as character cloning. Clone your character, respec him, experiment without fear of gimping yourself and wasting large amounts of time, and have fun.

• Also in the later difficulties, you'll get access to +skill equipment. Horde these, as they're the best modifiers in the game. The reason is that there's a skill cap. You can use +skill gear to get to that cap and then remove excess points and put them into other skills. You can max out a ridiculous number of skills this way.

• For a probably easier class to play as, you may want to consider a warrior combo for your first game. They're pretty fun, especially with the rag-doll physics you don't get to see as an archer, and they can also be really damn powerful. Warfare/Dream is the most popular and probably most overpowered class in the game, it can do the highest single-target damage out of any class, and has lots of AoE abilities. But really, warrior combined with a lot of other classes can be strong. Warfare/fire is a nice hybrid class, warfare/earth can give you nice defensive abilities, warfare/rogue can make for a really nice spear oriented class, and so on.

• Also it's been said before, but Dream mastery is the most overpowered one in the game. It's abilities can go with literally every single other mastery and any combination with Dream is a good combination, so don't be bashful about picking it.

Build guide for stereotypical tank and spank type physical warrior using the Conqueror (Defence / Warfare) class.

Introduction

• Beowulf, Bane of Grendel.
• Mastery: Conqueror (Defence / Warfare).
• Build: The stereotypical one hander and shield warrior.

The Conqueror combines the Defence and Warfare masteries. Defence provide shield buffs, defensive abilities and shield attacks while Warfare provides your primary offensive abilities and some additional damage avoidance.
Pros:

• The two masteries synergize well together, giving you a good supply of strength, dexterity and health.
• Good, spammable LMB attack.
• Good overall balance between offence and defence.
• Decent AOEs (Batter and Shield Charge).
• Good anti-boss trinity in Colossus Form + Ancestral Horn + Battle Standard.

Cons:

• AOEs (Batter and Shield Charge) have limited targets and hit box.
• Multiple ranged enemies can be annoying.
• Can be somewhat gear dependent but not extremely so.

Defense Mastery (AKA The Tank)

Batter

Batter will server as your RMB attack. It's on a cooldown so it's not something you can spam so you'll be using Onslaught when it or Shield Charge is on cooldown. With a point in Rend Armour you'll be able to hit three targets in a 160 degree arc. Decent for dealing with groups but remember that it has its limitations. Max out Batter to buff the base skill and Rend Armour to reduce armour on enemies.
Concussive Blow

Adds a chance to stun with axe and mace. Obviously, if you're not using an axe or mace as your one hander the skill is useless. If you're are using one then the stun can be useful. I maxxed out the skill in my build but the skill isn't mandatory, more nice to have. If you're looking to free up your points to put into something else then this is one you can bypass.
Battle Awareness

Aura that buffs armour and defensive ability. I only dropped a single point into the base skill. The base skill is okay but not mandatory while the synergy skills are more useful imo. Iron Will gives you all the secondary resistances you'll need and Focus gives you extra passive shield block chance.
Armour Handling

Reduces str requirement letting you equip good gear faster and gives you extra armour absorption. Worth picking up.
Rally

Provide an emergency heal on top of your potions. I dropped one point into it early on and forgot to remove it later. Rally really needs to be maxxed long term if you decide to use it so it heals enough to be worthwhile. I had too many other skills I was interested in, the skill can be nice to have but not mandatory.
Quick Recovery

Good one point ability. Gives a nice boost to absorption and block for a limited time. Good when fighting crowds. If you have spare points you can put more into it but even with one point it's pretty useful.
Shield Charge

Charges an enemy. Drop one point into the base skill and pump up its synergy skill Disruption first.Good way to get into melee range of casters and archers quickly, hits multiple targets, short stun and skill disruption. You can drop more points into shield charge when you have free points.
Shield Smash, Disable and Pulverise

This trio of passive skills should be maxxed out. When attacking with Onslaught (or basic attack, Batter / Shield Charge will not trigger) and a shield equipped, you'll get the chance to trigger their effects (reduced defensive ability, slower attack and 3 target reduced OA / skill disruption respectively). When they trigger, you'll do your normal weapon damage + the skill effect / damage.
Colossus Form

Grow to a large size and provides you with some substantial buffs. Great one point wonder anti-boss skill. Downside is the six minute long cooldown, the large size makes you harder to navigate and you can't enter caves and such. Unless you have substantial recharge reduction you'll want to save this for bosses and major fights. With extra points you'll get more damage absorption and strength.

Warfare Mastery (AKA The Spank)

Weapon Training

Boosts your offensive ability and attack speed. Nice passive to have, max it out
Battle Rage

Drop a single point into Battle Rage to unlock the chance of getting a big boost to offensive ability. Drop a single point into the Crushing Blow synergy. I don't care for the Counter Attack synergy. No other points are needed imo.
Onslaught
Your main LMB attack. Onslaught has stacks. When you use the ability you gain stacks. Stacks decay fairly quickly over time when you are not attacking. The more points you have in the skill, the more stacks you can get. The more stacks you have up, the more you get buffed. Obviously you want to max it out.
The Ignore Pain synergy buffs your physical and pierce resist. At 10/6 you'll gain +20% to both. You'll only have the buff when you have at least one Onslaught stack on. The physical resist is more useful as it's harder to get than pierce resist. If you need points for something else, this is something you can pass on as it isn't really a huge buff overall. You just need a single point here to unlock the later, more useful synergies.
Hamstring reduces defensive ability, armour and speed while Ardour increases movement speed and attack speed while you have at least one stack of Onslaught active. Max out both of these synergies.
Dual Wield

Dual wield is a rather useful ability in Warfare that lets you attack with two weapons at once. Obviously, a skill designed around attacking with two weapons will clash with skills that require shields. You are able to swap easily between two weapon load outs ('w' is default keybinding) so one can swap between a one hander + shield to dual weapon fairly fast. However, dual wield require a lot of skill points invested to become good. If you want to dual wield you should play a build more focused on that. Harbringer or Assassin come to mind.
Dodge Attacks

Increases your chance to dodge melee attacks. Worth dropping a couple of points into at least and can be maxxed if you feel like it.
War Horn

One point wonder ability. Applies a short stun to all enemies within range. Useful when you're fighting a big group to give you time to clear some first before you get mobbed, keep ranged enemies form running away or to interrupt annoying enemies (ex: casters or big damage dealers). Further points into the skill will increase the radius of the spell and the maximum stun length, however, the min stun length is always 1.5 seconds so it can be fairly inconsistent. Whether you want to invest more in the skill is up to you but a single point is effective.
The Doom Horn synergy skill is more valuable to put points into imo as it will debuff enemies' health and armour in addition to the base skill's stun. I wouldn't say it's mandatory through. Drop a single point into the skill and buff a little with +skill items or max it out depending on how you like the skill.
Battle Standard

One of the best skills in Warfare, Battle Standard will give you huge buffs if you're within its range. With one point, you'll get +1 skills, half-energy costs, a bit of damage absorption and some offensive ability and extra damage. Maxxed out, you'll get excellent damage absorption and even more offence. The Triumph synergy skill should be maxxed out as well and will debuff nearby enemies' physical damage, physical resistance and stun resistance. This will mean you'll take even less damage from them, your attacks will do even more damage to them and your stuns (from concussive blow and war horn) will be resisted less.
Battle Standard has a cooldown of 60s and only lasts 36s when it's maxxed. If you can get some recharge reduction then this will allow you to get it out more often. Also, as it's stationary, you may need to lure enemies towards it to get full advantage. There's a noticeable difference between it being out or not.
War Wind

War Wind is an another charge attack. It has a 360% degree arc but does terrible damage unless you drop tons of points into it. The base skill hits four targets at the beginning through and the Lacerate synergy skill will let you hit additional targets and add a bleed. It's a bit redundant when you already have Shield Charge which I think is the far superior option overall. I would suggest passing on War Wind and using the points elsewhere.
Ancestral Horn

Pretty effective with only a single point. Summon a trio of spectral minions to help fight for you. It has a long cooldown so will mostly be used for boss fights. The skill synergizes well with Battle Standard. Additional points will make the minions better and increase the number of spectral minions summoned. I only used one point in the build as I had other skills I thought were more important.

Stats

So what should you be dropping your attributes into?

• Health: You get quite a bit of health just from your mastery points actually. If you feel like adding a bit more, you can add a handful of additional attributes points.
• Mana: Honestly, you can just buy mana potions. There's no real reason to put points into mana.
• Strength: Primary stat so you can equip good warrior armour and hit people hard with your 1 hander. 600+
• Intellect: Not required.
• Dexterity: Your secondary stat. You need enough to equip your gear at a min and enough so you can hit things and avoid getting crit. ~450 should be fine.

Equipment

As you'll be in the thick of things you'll need to keep your resists up. This can be a bit of a pain in legendary. You can get away without resists in early normal but you'll want to start building them by act 3 and definitely by act 4. By Epic you'll want ~40% to all resists, legendary ~50% at a min if possible.
+4 all skills will allow you to max out ultimate levels on all your vital skills but is less important than getting your resists. If you need more damage just equip a better weapon. Try to max out resists against certain bosses and zones. For example, if you're fighting Cerberus in Act4 you'll want 80% poison as that's basically all his damage except for some physical. Having a few rings in your stash can allow you to change your resists as needed on the fly.
Recharge can let you cast your strong, long cooldown abilities more often. Being able to use Battle Standard, Quick Recovery, Colossus Form and your horns more often is good. Battle standard make you substantially stronger.
You'll burn through your mana fairly quickly using shield attacks but pots are cheap and you should just carry multiple stacks of them instead of worrying about getting mana or regen gear. Health is more useful as if it hits zero you die but still low on the priority list.
When leveling, a green weapon with a good prefix/suffix and socketed with a charm/relic is usually much better than any epics/legendaries for your level.
Use whatever good all around shield you have. If you have another shield(s) with good buffs to a certain resistance(s) then you can swap for certain bosses and fights.

Leveling

Defence is pretty nice but a little slow at the start. I'd suggest going with Warfare at the start. Put some points into Onslaught for your LMB attack and so you can build up stacks on it in combat. Drop a point into Weapon Handling and work up the tree. Point into Dodge Attack, War Horn and Battle Standard.
At level 8 you can pick up Defence. Drop a point into Batter for your RMB attack, Battle Awareness and Armour Handling. For the time being leave them at one point and level up your mastery for more stats. Drop a point into Quick Recovery for dealing with groups and Shield Charge to counter ranged.
From this point work your way however you want. +skill items will be very useful early as it will allow you to level the masteries and use the +skill items to bulk the skills for the time being until you have unlocked all the mastery points. Unlocking the masteries will give you access to more abilities and more stats.
