Titan Quest Anniversary: DEFENSE Mastery Guide for beginners!

[@LughSamildanach]

My favourite mastery! It might not be the most elaborate or visually impressive, but I really enjoy the skills myself.

[@the_vintage_feeling]

Thank you for sharing, Phaethon. Have a splendid Friday, my friend.

[@TheLineofEpicHeroes]

You too, vintage!

Rally + Colluses form = you win. Defense is the best warrior matery for my.

Hey, can you prepare video for new players who want to start at lvl70 with new expansion and show builds that would you suggest with starting gear that game offers?

[@TheLineofEpicHeroes]

Yes, this is absolutely coming soon!

[@DwayneAPurple]

@@TheLineofEpicHeroes there's nothing on the blog for this mastery. I keep getting an error that it does not exist.

@@DwayneAPurple I fixed it, somehow it stopped working!

Can anyone help me how do I use these skills.....i have skill but i don't get option to use it

[@TheLineofEpicHeroes]

If you're asking for the shield skills, you need to equip a shield with a melee weapon, shield skills don't work with thrown weapons!

[@adityamisra7702]

@@TheLineofEpicHeroes the problem is, like i have earth skill but they are all circle (that is i cannot equip them). So, I was asking how or when can I start using those active skills of mine that I got. In fact I just unlocked second active skill as well but I am unable to use any of them. Also i am struck at spider queen.....

[@TheLineofEpicHeroes]

Circle skills are passive, square skills are active. Some passive skills have a chance to trigger of their own when you attack. Defence mastery has 3 passive skills that use your shield to hit enemies and they trigger when you attack with your melee weapons. For active skills you use them whenever you want but you will need to have enough energy points to do so.

Hello, i have question. When i play defense mastery as primary and warfare as secondary, should i put attributes to strenght or dexterity to raise my damage ?

[@TheLineofEpicHeroes]

Hello, you should put points to both, Strength will increase the physical damage of this class and dexterity will increase Offensive/Defensive abilities which are very important (it also increases some other types of damage).

[@somakun1806]

@@TheLineofEpicHeroes can you explain what's offensive/defensive ability stat?

[@95DarkFire]

Offensive ability means how well you can hit in melee, and defensive ability means how well you can evade hits. If your OA is larger than the enemy DA, you will hit more often. If your OA is too low, you will miss a lot. @@somakun1806

Good video as always. One question (not about defense mastery, which is my favourite). I wanted to try a dual wielder spellbreaker build. It's safe, viable ? I played with a Harbringer, that I loved so much. I imagine that spellbreaker has different playstyle (like life leach, debuff auras, etc) . It's a lot harder to play with than the harbringer, or it's good even for a player like me (not starter, but not a veteran neither). Thank you for advance, and keep going with your videos !!!!!

[@TheLineofEpicHeroes]

It will be very viable if you use the right items, take a look at my "The Charger" build guide ;)

[@materafa957]

@@TheLineofEpicHeroes I checked. Nice build and not so "piano gameplay". Not so difficult to play I think. Thanks and see you later

[@Mode307]

Is disable trash? I maxed my disable, i dont know if its AOE or not

[@TheLineofEpicHeroes]

It is not really AOE, i wouldn't call it trash but it's not the most important skill either.

[@Ahlenx]

I've found out this game like few days ago. I don't know why it hasn't beaten Diablo II back then. I guess the company hadn't had enough resources for proper marketing? In my opinion it's better than Diablo II.

[@raynorcocker6851]

I'm a fan of both games. I do like the atmosphere better in D2, horror themes are my fave.

[@Vulgaels]

Shield charging in path of exile, shield charging in titan quest hehe

[@Mode307]

Im new to the game, and im running Pure defender till final boss lmao

[@TheLineofEpicHeroes]

Not a bad idea!

[@Mode307]

@@TheLineofEpicHeroes bunch of different builds, but i will finish the game first with pure defense before i experiment builds 😆
