About the Game
Return to the classic mythology-inspired setting of Titan Quest and go toe-to-toe with legendary monsters as you journey across a fantastical reimagining of Ancient Greece.
Nemesis, Goddess of Retribution, is out of control. She is corrupting the Threads of Fate and condemning all those who oppose her to Eternal Punishment - including you. Take up your weapon, fight alongside gods, and face some of the most powerful forces in Greek mythology in order to stop Nemesis, free those she’s punished, and weave your own epic tale.
From the creators of SpellForce 3 comes a handcrafted action RPG for a new generation of mythical heroes.
Embark on an adventure worthy of the epics that takes you from picturesque beaches, to serene Greek temples, to ruins haunted by shades of the dead, to places where no mortal has ever ventured, including the mysterious realm of the Moirai themselves and beyond.
Battle classic creatures from Greek myth and the original Titan Quest, including ichthians, centaurs, gryphons, hippokampoi and cyclopes, and prove that the age of heroes is far from over.
Titan Quest II features a unique handcrafted campaign focused on exploration, and the world is full of mysteries and secrets to discover. Legendary monsters lurk in hidden groves, strange artifacts still carry magic from bygone ages, and you never know when you will end up face-to-face with a god. Every ruin holds a secret, every statue a story.
Visit memorable towns full of life and intrigue. The conversations you engage in and the items you find along your journey can lead to surprising discoveries. This is your adventure.
Heroic deeds require heroic effort. As your journey progresses you will unlock powerful abilities and wield epic weapons, but the enemies you face are far from defenseless - dodge and counter their attacks, then overwhelm them with a well-timed flurry of blows.
Rituals allow you to control the game’s difficulty, while deep character customization systems ensure that there’s always a good reason to replay.
Flexible character system: In Titan Quest II, you are in control of your own fate. Form your own class by combining two masteries. Build your character around the strengths and weakness of both masteries, exploring different combinations of skill modifiers, attributes, and items to create your own hybrid class and find your favorite playstyle. Grow your powers from those of a young mortal to a hero to rival the gods themselves!
Meaningful loot: Every item serves a function, and every character class has many options when it comes to finding the perfect equipment.
Challenging action RPG combat: Enemies form factions and work together, combining their unique skills and abilities to keep you on your toes. Use the deep character build system and access every skill at your disposal to vanquish them in this unique action RPG experience.
A beautiful, handcrafted world rooted in Greek myth: Encounter stunning vistas and deep caverns. Use the powers of the gods to uncover secret locations and explore lovingly designed levels full of verticality.
Rich and immersive sound: An atmospheric soundtrack blends traditional Greek music with modern orchestral elements to create epic, memorable themes, drawing you into Titan Quest II's unique world.

Heroes!
We have decided to fix some issues but also make some needed changes.
Changes and Balance
Masteries
We have taken a look at how our changes and especially Summons perform and made several adjustments. This is a high-level overview, detailed changes are listed below:
We felt like the passive playstyle for Summons didn't perform as well as we'd liked compared to the more active Empower playstyle. For this reason we added new Modifiers that should be great for players who want the more passive experience.
We adjusted Balance for some of the Summons. Core Dweller with certain Modifier combinations overperformed. This was especially true when using Empower, Augmenting Channel and Command Fissure. We have made several adjustments to bring it more in line with intended power level.
Wisps underperformed so we decided to buff them to bring everything onto a more similar level of power.
We also overall buffed Shadow Clone and Automaton.
We made many more detailed changes to support certain playstyles better and fix potential balance and functionality issues we observed.

Heroes!
We have a big update for you this time. There is a lot of ground to cover, so let's get straight into it. First let's get an overview of the major topics of the update, then we will have a long list of individual changes and bugfixes.
Major Topics
Summons
Summons are added to the existing Masteries. This is our first step towards allowing a full "Summoner" playstyle in the game.
This will then be concluded with the addition of the summoning focused Spirit Mastery later this year.
Our design goal is to give you a choice:
Do you prefer a more passive playstyle and have your summons do the work for you?
Or do you want to engage more actively and use a playstyle where you empower your summons with active abilities?
Both are possible, as well as various combinations in between of course.
We are adding the following abilities:
New Active Abilities: Core Dweller (Earth Summon), Wisps (Storm Summon), Automaton (Forge Summon), Shadow Clone (Rogue Summon) and War Banner (Warfare)
New and Reworked Passive Abilities: We have added 3 new summon-centered Passives to Masteries and also added additional summon-scaling elements to existing passives.
Items
We know that items and especially Epics have been an often debated topic. With this patch we introduce a huge amount of buffs, additions and changes to our items.
Here is an overview of what this means:
New Powerful Affixes: Added a new set of item affixes that directly increase the power of your skills. These can increase the level of all passives for a whole Tier of a Mastery, or add capacity to all actives in one Tier of a Mastery.
Added Talismans: Talismans are a new off-hand weapon type. They offer inherent bonuses to energy, which could be hard to come by in the past.
Added new Epics, Relics and Charms: We have added 13 new Epics (including Epic Talismans), 13 new Relics and 3 new Charms.
Reworked existing Epics: Almost all existing Epic items were reworked, buffed or both so they are more powerful and exciting to find.
Added Potion Affixes: New Potion Affixes should make this item type more exciting to find.
New and Reworked Affixes: We have added tons of new affixes and reworked some existing ones. This includes adding more Energy-related affixes.
Staves Rework: We have reworked Staves, especially their implicit bonuses, to make them more useful for casters.
Added Affix Tiers to all affixes: We have started this process in the past and now all affixes should use the correct Affix-Tiers.
Due to all of these changes, some items will be partially re-rolled to their new versions. We believe this is the best approach here. Anything we reroll usually is a buff and we don't want you to have to "find it again".
We did the following re-rolls:
All Epic items were re-rolled, as we have completely overhauled and buffed all of them.
All item Implicits were re-rolled, as we improved many of them (see the staves example above)
Some very specific Affixes that we moved/removed were rerolled. These are very few.
We have included an extra section at the end of this changelog that will deep-dive into the individual changes to items and also offer an overview of our goals with these changes in more detail.
New Features
Sustained Skill Rework
We have reworked how sustained skills are equipped and maintained in the game. They now live in a new window accessible via the Mastery Screen and aren't in your normal skill bar (unless they have an active component, like many Summons).
In this new window you can turn them on and off and also have a preview of how this will impact your Energy and Health.
We have also added a lot of quality of life features. For example Sustained Skills don't need to be reactivated after death or when restarting the game anymore, making it a lot less annoying to play with them.
As a part of this we have removed 2 Skill-Slots from the UI to maintain our currently intended balance and access to abilities.
Death Echoes
We have added "Death Echoes". They allow you to recover lost experience after death. To do so you need to defeat all enemies in the area.
Should you die again, the experience stored in the previous Death Echo will be lost.
Map Markers and Pings
We have added the ability to add Markers on the Map and make a temporary ping on the Minimap. This should help coordinating your party in multiplayer.
0.5.0-public.125062+win.2530 - Changes to Gameplay and Balance
Masteries
Highlevel Balance Adjustments
With this update we plan to increase the viability of some abilities and mechanics, while also taking a look at some that over-performed to a degree we found to be problematic for the game.
This is not meant to be a major balance overhaul, but some targeted changes to improve the experience.
We also made some adjustment to unify player and summon scaling more.
The larger ideas here are:
Elemental Infusion: We felt that making good use of this mechanic could be a little tedious and require a lot of input from players. You can now have up to 3 stacks of the same infusion. Using an Infusion Skill will still only use one stack.
Exhaust and Energy: We want to test an adjustment to how abilities that cost more Energy and use Exhaust as a default work. We are testing this specifically on Call Lightning. The idea is to make the base ability easier to use by reducing its cost and removing Exhaust. Players can opt to adjust the ability via modifiers. For example they can choose to ADD exhaust in combination with more damage. Or turn the ability into a cooldown skill but again have more damage.
Critical Strikes: We rebalanced Crit Chances to achieve the following goals:
Bonuses are easier to understand
Less multiplicative makes it harder to reach very high chances
Less multiplicative means we can give stronger flat chances which means investing into Crit is more useful even without maximizing it
Attacks and Spells will be more equal now because previously only Attacks had access to flat Weapon Crit Chance bonuses
Doom: We felt it was hard to consistently utilize Doom in builds, so we wanted to improve access to it.
Trick Shot, Bladespin and Scattershot now each have three modifiers revolving around Doom including one to apply Doom.
Previously there were only few ways to consistently apply Doom and this change is to make building around this mechanic more viable.
Rage and Lightning Strikes: We rebalanced Rage and Lightning Strike passives. We want the mechanics to be strong but only with appropriate investment. It should be an active choice to go for either of these mechanics and players should then be rewarded for that choice!
Summon Scaling: We have adjusted Summon-related bonuses from Passives and Affixes to be in line with bonuses awarded to players. This should make things more intuitive.
Summon Passives: Now that Summons are a greater part of the game we have added additional Summon scaling to existing passives to make them more useful for Summoners and create more choices.
Affecting All Masteries
Elemental Infusions: You can now stack up to 3 stacks of the same Elemental Infusion
Elemental Infusions: Infused Skills and Summons now have 5/30% of their damage converted to the consumed type

Detailed Item Changes
As promised above, we wanted to add a section where we go into more detail regarding the item changes we made.
This includes a full list of changes to individual epics, what we changed about affixes, and also explains our goals and philosophy behind those changes.
General System Changes - Design Reasoning
To improve progression and make especially Magic items a more attractive upgrade option while playing through the story, we made the following changes to affix tier drops:
All Affixes and implicit item properties are upgraded to a new tier system, featuring more tiers and thus chances to find upgrades, and later on, better interactions with crafting. The Tier Names of many affixes have also been updated.
Magic items now have access to higher affix tiers even earlier than before. This should improve their usefulness during the story as they can be "ahead of the curve" in affix power compared to rares.
Weapon affixes, weights, and distribution are revised to have a clearer distinction between normal, attack-supporting weapons and caster weapons. This should help find upgrades for both categories. (It is still possible to find “Hybrids”, but at a much lower rate than before)
New Item Type - Talismans:
Talismans are now available! They are utility off-hand items providing you with Energy and buffs
A range of new Epic Talismans is also available
Epic Items - Design Reasoning
Epic Items were having some trouble keeping up with other types, especially since the addition of Relics, so we’re giving them a deserved overhaul.
We will keep our eyes on Epics and with new features entering the game might make other overhauls even to existing ones. So even more changes can happen in the future.
Epic Armors are of course also planned to join the roster in the future!
Important: Because those changes represent, on average, a significant increase in power for all Epic Items, we decided to apply them retroactively, which will mean items on your characters will have these buffs present and you do not have to find them again.
Power Level is adjusted to match Rares and Monster Infrequents, taking Charms and Relics into account, which results in a significant buff
Many affixes have been adjusted or completely changed on most Items to make them more usable or strengthen their core ideas, including unique effects
New affix tiers and balance changes are also effective for Epic Items.
Some effects are now marked as “Unique Effect”, meaning they do not stack multiple times, even if you find them on different or twice the same Item.
Item Stats Changes
New Skill-enhancing affixes: Affixes that grant extra capacity points for actives or levels for passives can now drop on items
Certain normal Items have a chance to drop a mastery-based version that enhances all skills of a mastery
Uniques, Relics, or Charms can have a more specific version, targeting precise skills or skill categories
New Potion Affixes:
Health and Energy Potions have new affixes affecting their Charges, Duration, Effectiveness, Recharge, and more.
Those are the new, currently available affixes:
+x Maximum Charges
x% increased Duration
x% increased Recharge Rate
x% increased Effect Amount
-x Charges Consumed
+x Maximum Charges, x% less Recharge Rate
x% of Healing is Instant
x% of Healing is Instant, x% reduced Healing Amount
Energy Affixes:
Having the option to invest in Energy is an important part of most builds. You now have more options to build energy-related stats.
+x Energy: Added more tiers, increased values, increased the amount of compatible items, and increased the drop chance.
+x Energy Regeneration: Added more tiers, increased values, the amount of compatible items, and the drop chance.
-x Energy Reserved: Changed naming to “+x Free Energy Reservation” (functionality remains unchanged), added more tiers, increased values, increased the amount of compatible items, and the drop chance.
New: “+x Energy, +x Energy Regeneration” Suffix for Staves to free up affix space and give Caster characters more options.
Critical Hit Affixes:
As mentioned above, we have made adjustments to crits in masteries that of course also need to be represented in item affixes.
x% increased Critical Hit Chance: No longer exists
New: “+x% Critical Hit Chance” for Weapons, Talismans, Rings, and Shoulders. Effect grants flat Global Critical Hit Chance (Works on both Spells and Weapon Attacks)
x% increased Critical Hit Damage: Now has more tiers
Damage Affixes:
x% increased \ Damage: Now has more tiers and adjusted values.
x% increased \ Damage: Now has more tiers and adjusted values, can’t drop on Weapons anymore
X% increased Area Damage: Now has more tiers. Can drop on more item types (Head, Talisman, Staves,2H Club, 2H Axe)
x% increased Projectile Damage: Now has more tiers. Can drop on more item types (Bow, Staves, Arm, Shoulder)
New: “+x \ Retaliation Damage” available on Torsos, Shoulders, and Shields.
Summon Affixes:
We have adjusted the values of summon affixes to be more in line with the rest of the balancing that happened for the inclusion of more Summons into the game.
Armor Affixes:
We want to free up affix space on armor pieces while giving more options to specialize in different types of defenses:
New: “+x Armor” affix that gives the combined amount of Pierce and Strike Armor. This is now the most common affix for armor pieces.
New: “+x Armor, x% increased Armor” for Torso and Shields. +x Pierce/Strike Armor now has increased values and a lower drop chance.
Armor Affixes are now grouped, and you can’t naturally drop multiple of them at once on a single Item.
Resistance Affixes:
x% \ Resistance and x% \ Resistance have more tiers and overall lower value. Amulets can now get the x% Category res suffix
x% Impairment Resistance can now be found on Legs, Shoulders, and Talismans
x% Stun Resistance can now be found on Shields and Heads
Ailment Affixes:
x% increased Ailment Chance: Now has more tiers
x% increased Ailment Power: Now has more tiers
x% increased Ailment Duration: Now has more tiers
Implicits:
All Implicits have more tiers and adjusted values.
Implicits on older Items will re-roll to the value they are supposed to have with the updated tiers.
Implicit scaling is now more granular and coherent across armor and weapons.
All Implicits now have a higher chance to drop at the highest available tier. This is not the case for normal affixes.
Implicit “+x% Base Weapon Ailment Chance”: Values are significantly lower and streamlined across weapons
Implicit “+x% Base Weapon Critical Hit Chance”: Values are overall higher to match Critical Chance affix changes and streamlined across weapons
Implicit “+x \ Weapon Damage”: Now has 6 Tiers instead of scaling with the Weapon Level
Ichthian Shield retaliation implicit has been replaced with Poison Resistance
We will evaluate the impact of these changes, and you can expect more iterations on Implicits in the future.
Staves:
Stave Implicits have been completely revised to benefit caster characters more:
Tripod Staff Implicit: x% Weapon Penetration → +x Energy
Round Staff Implicit: x% increased Attack, Cast, and Cooldown Speed → x% Cast Speed
Helix Staff Implicit: x% increased Area Damage → x% Increased Spell Damage
Ichthian Infrequent Staff: +x% Base Weapon Ailment Chance → x% Increased Ailment Chance
Other notable Affix Changes:
Affix “x% Glancing Hits Chance”: Now has more tiers and overall higher values
Affix “x% increased Cooldown Rate”: Now has more tiers, overall higher values, and is present on more items
Affix x% increased Movement Speed: Now has more tiers and overall higher values
Affix x% increased Attributes: No longer drops on Neck as a flat attribute affix is now present on all items
Bearded Axe Implicit affix now gives Base Weapon Damage instead of All Damage
Attribute affix values are now slightly lower but present on more items
Charms and Relics
Effects have been revised to match the new power level of normal affixes
Charms now have improved stats combinations to ensure no damage type has an inherent disadvantage
While the new stats are more streamlined than before, we still plan to cover a larger array of stats with future charms
Possible slots for Charms are adjusted according to their stats
Relics should feel unique as before, but we removed some anti-synergies and undesirable stat combinations
Relics also have their effects adjusted to match the new power level of normal affixes
Charms and Relics now have an additional very small chance to drop from chests and crates.
Charm distribution on creatures is partly revised for better coherence and to include new charms
Some charms that were present only on one creature type are now present on more (name and theme have been updated accordingly)
Relics are now assigned to a Chapter in which they first appear and have a higher drop chance. You can still find Relics from earlier chapters in the next ones, but at a lower rate.
