Dunno if it still helps you, but to anyone else looking for an answer: - farm Nessus (Centaur hero in "Spartan War Camp", Act 1) for the "Outrider's Buckler", this will last you until... - farm Tropical Arachnids (regular monsters in Act 3) for the "Exotic Carapace" Repeat on higher difficulty levels. Both shields are green, meaning that they can (randomly) roll with each and every affix that regular shields can roll too, plus you can socket them with relics/charms. "Rigid Carapace" and "Turtle Shell" are good socket materials. Especially "Exotic Carapace" can be better than, or equally good as, most uniques in terms of defense.

Update: patience paying off, got pulverise and colossus at lvl 12, shield charge and one shield passive at 13, other shield passive, weapon training, battle rage and onslaught by lvl 15, gonna max weapon training and onslaught then move on, currently I’m on my way down easy street, just shredding through mobs and bosses now at lvl 16

@@rabbitrockbush3627 I have a little bit of the information you're asking for on my website - The first 10 levels for a Conqueror are quite difficult because neither Defense nor Warfare are very good for leveling. However, I would argue Warfare is slightly better than Defense so focus moreso on that. It'll get easier when you get into your 20s and have more Skill Points

@@AlmarWinfield that is great advice. I went defence first this time because I remember when I got colossus and pulverise at like lvl 30 last time, Everything just got so much easier! Wanted to see what it would be like to rush them....... it’s pretty great now, but that early grind was far more painful than I expected, like have to get 30 lesser healing potions and 10 mins to kill the cyclops and about 20 potions and 5 mins for some hero monsters hahaha

Sabertooth is the 2nd best option

Usually it's better to climb masteries and just put 1 point in every *essential* skill as you go.

Because Sabertooth from original game and Einjahrs Fate is from Ragnarok Dlc.Both easy to get.Not every body have all dlc or want to warm to get new Op( like youre dagger)weapon

I dont/cant do leveling guides because that information is 100% subjective. It comes down to what you like and want out of your character. For example, maybe you are lucky with armor drops and you want more damage. Or maybe you got really solid weps and want more survivability. There is no "best route" for this sort of stuff.

@@AlmarWinfield thank you sir! Then can I ask a question about how much points you put into health? By like level 65, usually how many times would you increase health? I feel like dex and str I understand for this build, but it would be nice to get your standard for health.

@@somato2688 I dont remember dumping a lot of skill points into health, but I tend to build my characters more tanky than squishy. So I would focus on defensive skils and armor moreso than armor that increases my damage. Skill Points are irreversible without mods though so i put them into DPS oriented things that help me do more damage. Talent Points can be refunded and reorganized at will basically so they are easier to play around with

you mean the main attack? Yea I know some people prefer that but I don't feel comfortable always hitting right click for the main attack, holding shift is easier for me personally

@@AlmarWinfield Yeah, Onslaught or how it's called in english. I can't understand why it's easier to press left + shift instead of just right click, but if it works for you everything is fine. With shift + left click you may slash into the air while with right click you move until you hit an enemy. If there is no one, you move farward until there is an enemy in range. Sooo much better.

No

Cus he noob pretending that he know something)

Best way to farm in my opinion is in akt 5 after the goldenboar where you find the broaken speer or in asgard

Our skill point distribution wouldn't be exactly the same anyway since we're using different gear. The way I spend stats on builds in Titan Quest isn't a set in stone system. I typically just dump points into stats when I need to wear a piece of gear then once I am wearing my endgame set I dump all the points into whatever my main damage stat is. Usually I always keep 15-20 Stat Points banked at all times too incase a piece of gear drops that I need

@@AlmarWinfield ty for answer

@@AlmarWinfield why on my tablet onslaught don't look like yours when I attack? You have some mod that It looks different then mine?

@@Elite4all nope no mods for me in this game. I'm not sure why your onslaught would look different... maybe because not on the PC?

it's hard to cram every last thing into the video, these 2 weapons are pretty common knowledge on why they're good, a quick google search will give plenty of info. Basically fast attack speed and high damage with good base stats on the items.

@@AlmarWinfield Np, the video is great overall. Many thanks for your prompt reply. The reason I ask is because I found the first one (from the tigers on normal difficulty) and tried switching it with both my current weapons (dual wielder, with both weaps also from normal) but for both my DPS was reduced. The stats on your weap look good and possibly Titan Quest isn't calculating the DPS properly but my other weaps seem at least as good. I can give your suggested weap a try and see how it plays, though if you know any detail about why my calculated DPS might be decreasing with it, that would be appreciated (I assume attack speed is factored into the game's DPS calculation).

@@_anon464 I am not sure if the calculated DPS is accurate truthfully. I can recommend you a youtuber by the name of Clex Plays though who talks about these weapons in many of his videos and he breaks down the math of how damage works in titan quest etc. His Advanced Damage Dealing Guide will probably answer the questions you have better than I can.

@@AlmarWinfield Thanks for the tip, I'll check his video when I have a chance.

A good rule of thumb is all my builds are tanky builds. I hate playing glass cannons, I find them incredibly boring and frustrating
