Titan Quest - Templar Build Guide

[@VnikXum]

6:06 There is one mistake - "Psionic beam" does work with other weapons. It reduce number of charges for activation "Psionic touch" that is really good.

I'm going Templar for the hardcore achievement, thanks to you & this video. Currently level 20.

[@ericathompson7487]

Found this a year after you posted - great guide! I had been hemming and hawing over trying a Thunderer but seeing this has me heading back to my trusty Templar to better! =)

Hey man! I wanted to say thank you for the vids! there are not many TQ content-creators left and even tho you got some grumpy boy in the commentsection I really apreciate the work and content! Keep it up and if I can help in any way or with any Items I might have it so feel free to ask! thanks buddy! (PS: I don't care about the 100% perfectness or not a guide provides because for me they are ideas and not DO THIS OR DIE xD) (PPS: Sorry for my english but it's the 3th language and damn man it's not always easy)

[@AlmarWinfield]

haha thanks! I'm good on items for now, I got tons in my TQ Vault. That grumpy boy has been with me ever since this video, downvotes every single video i upload ever since hahahahahahahaha I hope to get back into Titan Quest soon and make more build guides, i had fun doing it and people seemed to enjoy the videos (except that one guy). I've been toying around with Warden and Thunderer Builds.

@@AlmarWinfield well count me in as the balance to his hate downvotes then! Angry dudes never seem to get over it huh xD! And I‘d be more than happy to watch any TQ Guide you manage to put out or come up with :3

Nice build I think you should go for psionic beam, because it reduced the charge levels by 2 for psionic touch, even without staff, so still very good!

[@danutgita185]

This is what I did , its freaking AWESOME !!

[@ДокторЯдо]

Is that a hidden property of the skill?

[@ДокторЯдо]

I have a question about trances. Why maxing Trance of Empathy? Is reflected damage really that important? Life steal doesn't increase with point investment. Maybe Trance of Wrath is the way to go for more damage?

[@Carnivore-Chronicle]

Will you be playing Titan quest 2 when released, sir?

[@AlmarWinfield]

probably not, I am primarily a retro gamer so I very very very rarely buy and play new games. The two new games I have played in the last 5 years are Dying Light 2 and Valheim. both of them are already almost 3 years old now too hahaha. For a game like Titan Quest 2 I will wait a year or two and see if it sucks based on the reviews and only then will I make a decision to buy/play. I may not do guides for it either depending on how many guide writers there are etc. That's part of why I don't like doing guides for new games too, it's all trendy and tons of websites jump on every new game/every new trend. I try to stick to retro games for that reason

[@philkim8972]

Thanks for uploading the build. What should I do with my skills when I start at level 40?

[@ДокторЯдо]

Also, why lupine claw on the sword? Looks like a VERY poor choice if we got peng claw, Achilles, Anubis etc. Is it only because this is sub-optimal sword and you didn't want to upgrade it with top-tier relic/charm?

[@gamermike24]

Since your main attacks are dream skills, should I start with the dream mastery?

[@meatball-t6n]

Sorry if it's late, but i recommend starting with the defense because you need batter skill for progress faster, It's got aoe addon that does shield damage for multiple enemies plus extra effects

[@ctiradctirada2775]

I've always seen melee builds like this one or the harbinger one using the trance of wrath. Why don't you use it on either of those builds? Tbh, I didn't understand using the trance of wrath on phys dmg builds either since it gives elemental dmg.

[@AlmarWinfield]

Most Templar builds i seen did the damage reflection trance, I typically prefer convalescence for survivability and the reflection one for damage

[@ctiradctirada2775]

@@AlmarWinfield thank you. So does it also make sense to go with this trance even for harbinger?

[@ctiradctirada2775]

And also, I am currently maining a spellbreaker. I am close to the end of legendary and most of the time I am quite immortal due to my damage to health leeching. But from time to time I just die to some packs. For example those Einherjar guys in the shrine of Wodan wreck me quite often. I can't even use my skills like life drain or visions of death, because they keep micro-stunning me (I have 80 % stun Res). Would you please recommend something to get better?

[@AlmarWinfield]

@@ctiradctirada2775 I heard that trance of wrath is good for niche builds, I have only ever seen people use it for the reduced resistances AoE it has... But it's worth noting the range is quite small so you do get reduced resists... Just typically only in your immediate surroundings. As for your second question, I am honestly unsure. Some enemies have really annoying mechanics on Legendary that can't be avoided no matter how much you try
