Check mainstream titan calc. compendium , you have all builds there

[DaveyT]

As sugar kane stated, the compendium has some good builds although dated. E.g. Triumph is useful if the fanpatch is installed.

Shield Charge and its synergy along with maxing out the shield procs will be your main damage dealers. A fast weapon will help the shield procs go off more often and the added damange of the shield will more than compensate for the weaker hitting weapon. A defenders shield will really help the DPS since +skills will increases the % chance of the shield procs.

My conq concentrated on the defense tree first although I picked up some of the lower warfare skills (e.g. Weapon Handling and Onslaught)

[Medea Fleecestealer]

The Almost Full Builds Compendium lists quite a lot of different builds, including the Conqueror. I used Cassidy's when I first started playing and it got me through to the end of Legendary.

Here's just a selection of gear possibilities I've picked up from the forums:

For equipment, I'd trade off damage for resistance and defence. My gear set up of:

Hallowed Ereban Great Helm of Prowess with an epic Crystal of Erebus resist all completion bonus
Armour of Peleus
Priam's Gate
Chiron's Loop
Hale Engraved Ring of the Owl with an Incarnation of Hectate's Crescent (18% Elemental Resistance completion bonus)
Disposition
Blessing of the Gods
Hale Stonebinder's Cuff of Alarcity
Athena's Battle Greaves
Sapros the Corrupter

And Lionheart artifact gives me nearly maxed out primary resistance and with Onslaught and level 12 Defensive Reaction, over 8000dps, Attack Damage Converted to Health, over 1500 defence, 1000ish OA/DA and everything can be gotten in Act 1 Legendary. Edit: Ok, maybe the 8000ish DPS was with Ares' War Helm.

Or:
Leggings - Athena's Battle Greaves
Wrist - Conqueror's Bracers
Head - Ares' War Helm
Chest(torso) - Alexander's Cuirass
Weapon - Theogenes' Onslaught
Sheild - Priam's Gate
Amulate - Amulet of Hygeia
Ring 1 - Mark of Ares
Ring 2 - Eye of Horus

You can also use good greens with good relics added too them, But I suggest you stick to the ones mentioned above.

Or: This selection of gear focuses on 50% dmg and 50% defence

Visor of the Shadowlord
Aionios
Sapros the Corrupter
Barbarian's Spiked Greaves (or maybe Athena's Battle Greaves)
Stonebinder's Cuffs (with epic Herakle's might with +27% dmg bonus for example)
Ferrus Gnosi
Star of Ishtar
Pendant of Immortal Rage
Star of Elysium
Some ring, perhaps Hale (of immortality, of adroitness, of stength) with Demon's Blood (+% vitality resistance completion bonus)

You'll have all your primary and secondary resistances maxed. 42% damage resistance. +4 all skills. About 6k health. 1100 OA, 1200 DA (even more with Battle Awareness). DPS is trough the roof, so is survivability. You can't die unless you try really hard.

And none of them mention my favourite weapon - the Thorny Maul.
