Overpowered Gear Combinations - Titan Quest

This page is something I decided to put together after realizing that my Build Guides were lacking in specialized information about each build in Titan Quest. How I play this game is different from how many others play this game. I build every character I play in Titan Quest like a tank, focusing entirely on stacking every resist as high as it can go and I ignore other things like +% damage increases. For this reason almost all of the gear I recommend in my build guides is for tanking purposes.

Additionally I almost never "gear swap" with my characters because I really loathe gear swapping in video games. It's something I always forget to do and it ends up getting me killed constantly because I only remember after dying that I need to change my gear -- not before. These are shortcomings on my part and as a guide writer I need to take into consideration that there are others who play the game differently than me with different strengths and weaknesses... This was my impetus for writing this guide.

On this page I have documented item pairings that are generally considered to be overpowered in the game. An example of what item pairings you'll find on this page are Tracker's Hood and Apollo's Will -- both of these items give you +100% Piercing Damage. For any build that uses primarily Piercing Damage the combination of these items will give you an absolutely insane damage boost.

 

Note: This guide is worked on periodically throughout the year. I typically play Titan Quest a few months every year and I update and add more to the guides on my website each time I do. When you see information missing on this page -- that's why!

 

 

(Caster Life Draining Builds) Necklace of Harmonia, Band of Souls & Praxidikae or Fallen Seer's Staff (EE Monster Infrequent) Praxidikae is a staff that deals Vitality damage which makes it an amazing weapon for any Spirit builds designed around Vitality damage. Fallen Seer's Staff is what I would choose for a non-vitality based build. It's an Eternal Embers Monster Infrequent <Add Link> so you'll have to farm one with a good roll.
