Warfare FAQ for newbies

[Krazikarl]

You might want to suggest that players think about getting into the upper 300s in dex by level 50 or so. If you just leave it at "get enough to use your gear" people might keep dex pretty low since most warrior gear has very low dex requirements. Plus, its hard to boost your dex that much through gear compared to strength, so people might be in for an unpleaseant surprise when they find those Stonebinders and actually want to equip them.

thanks for the faq, although a little too late for my spellbreaker, which was the first char. i created and took a loooooooong time to make into a proper killing machine, and he still needs fixing to make right, according to your guide.

i would max out the war horn/doom horn line because when it's combined with a maxed out attack speed using two powerful weapons, a sabertooth and folg, for example, and a fast run speed, it results in an easy kill ratio vs. mobs, since you'll have a few seconds to go postal while they're stunned.

pets rule, you can never have enough of them since they provide great distractions, regardless of how much damage they actually cause.

unfortunately, i would argue that the spellbreaker has many wasted skill lines that limit the variety of attacks this char. can use, and as a result, lower the "fun" factor when compared to other characters.

just my two cents

Spellbreaker should use Sapros. Otherwise you won't take full benefit of Necrosis, which is what Spellbreaker is meant to do.

It's Harbinger, not Harbringer.

It should be noted that while ToW's electrical burn can do good amounts of dmg in normal difficulty, it's almost of no use in later difficulties (save for specialized builds). And the % reduced resistances does not lower the physical resistance of monsters, because most of them have none (some bosses and Nate has though).

So that leaves those who do not use piercing weapons with only skill disruption being of any use in ToW. With mid- to late game builds, you can achieve very fast attack speeds with maces, so swords become useless.

Therefore ToC (or even ToE) would be the better option (even for offensive players), and ToW could be left at 1 point, to be used when skill disruption would be needed (like against the minotaur boss). But that's again for the player to decide for himself

Yup, and remember to equip in the right hand.

Hi guys. Is Battle Standard really necessary? How about Battle Rage? Should I put the 1 point somewhere else? I just got to legendary difficulty with my level 60 conqueror. I was planning to max defiance & colossus form instead. I need some advice. Thanks!TitanCalc by stonedonkey - A Titan Quest Calculator - Conquerer
