4 Classes combining 8 masteries [Build Guides]

[Shadowshire]

didnt knew this, always wondered about pierce dmg and STR/DEX, what the optimal ratio 50/50?

[Infares]

I go 50/50 up until my dex is at the level it needs to be to use all the dex related gear and pump the rest into Strength.

[Shadowshire]

Exactly. Either go 50/50 or as i do go str: 60 Dex:40. Depends on wether you want high stats dependent armor or weapons first. Check out this site for stats on gear:

Titan Quest @ GameBanshee

It should be noted that GameBanshee didn't update their item stats with 1.20, and in the case of armor and shields it can vary significantly from 1.20's stats.

my druid and conjurer are level 40-ish and still in epic. have been collecting virtual dust for a while but i just dusted the conjurer. basically, my druid is very squall-plague-lightning and my conjurer is a ternion-eruption tank. his core dweller dies too much to be a tank. >_<

my slayer is my most developed character despite the fact that she's my third one. she's 60 in legendary. i use her for farming so she is still in greece. when i get sick of greece, i'll move on. she has no bow skills and uses her secondary bow weapon for casting buffs only and when she's too lazy to move. :P she DWs and hardly drinks. her attack and run speeds have maxed.

my corsair is still a little baby in normal greece. 20s, i think. deals a huge amount of damage and only uses traps minimally.

i'll try to find some time this weekend to type something up. ^_^

p.s. i play 1.20.

i don't know what i'll choose with the new mastery. probably go the same way i did with TQ, i.e., watch Minervian play first, let him bug me into playing, then take over the PC till he threatens to pull the plug unless i return the PC to him. LOL

[Shadowshire]

Think i'll try the Dream Mastery with defence or storm for starters. These are my favorite masteries with some of the best skills in the game IMO, and would be a good way of testing it with both melee and casting.

The Psionic skills is a whole new damage type, but i haven't seen the stats on it, so wether it adds best to melee or staves i don't know yet. Anyway can't wait to get a new class and some new areas to play...

[Infares]

Psionic skills do Physical, Vitality, and Electric Burn damage (depending on the specific skill).
