Titan Quest 2: Attributes Guide

Upon leveling up in Titan Quest 2, you may have noticed that you were granted 2 Attribute points that can be allocated into any of the 4 available options.

Understanding how these options work and how they influence your character is crucial for making the most of your build and taking on the challenges Titan Quest 2 has to offer. Of course, this isn’t exactly very straightforward, and putting points into the wrong choice can greatly hinder you moving forward.

This guide will cover everything the Attribute system has to offer, as well as the ramifications it has for other features in Titan Quest 2.

The Main Attributes

As mentioned previously, there are 4 main attributes available to choose from, yet, in most cases, you’re generally only going to have to worry about 2 of them at a time.

Generally, your main attributes will affect everything that you have equipped to your character, rather than the skills that they use.

The Secondary Attributes

The next set of 3 attributes is a little simpler and is completely defined by the main attributes that you pick. You cannot pick these to put points into. These attributes will help you deal more of a specific type of damage. The attributes and their effects are as follows:

• Fitness: This will increase your Strike and Pierce Damage. Naturally, anyone using a melee weapon or a bow will want points in this attribute. Magic users are less so. Affected by Might, Agility and Vigor
• Cunning: This is the basis for Poison and Lightning damage. This leans more into the Rogue and Mage archetypes, benefitting those who inflict ailments and cast spells. Affected by Agilty Knowledge and Vigor.
• Resolve: If you deal in frost and flame, well, this is the attribute for you. Anyone using the Storm or Earth Masteries will want as much of this as possible. Affected by Might, Knowledge and Vigor.

Optimising a Build

You may have noticed that the attributes are very much tied to the masteries that you select, and allocating these points correctly can really allow your build to come online.

For example, let’s take a look at a Battlemage class, which is a mix of the Warfare and Earth masteries. One of the best skills in this class is the Sweeping Strike skill, which will let you perform a whirlwind attack to decimate your foes in close combat.

To amplify this build, we want to select a bunch of skills from the Earth Mastery to add fire damage to our attacks, like Ring of Flame and Earth Enchantment. Seeing as though we’re going to be outputting a lot of fire damage and physical damage, we want a combination of both fitness and resolve to maximise our damage.

Luckily, Might gives us both of these, so this is the option we will be putting most of our attribute points into. You can also get some Vigor on top of this, to make sure you don’t die in those big boss fights, as this will also benefit your secondary stats.

Generally, in a class like this, you don’t need to worry about Agility or Knowledge, as they don’t really gel with the build we’re trying to go for. If in doubt, try using the ratio of 2:1 with your main attribute getting the most points, and Vigor getting fewer.

Gear and Requirements

Once you start making some serious progress and begin to find higher-tiered weapons, you’ll notice that a lot of these have Attribute requirements tied to them. If you don’t have the Attributes required, you’re not going to be able to equip them.

This is why I mentioned earlier it’s good to have a few attribute points stored in case you find something that’s going to greatly improve your build. And these restrictions aren’t just for your main attributes, but your secondary ones too.

If you’re looking to get higher attributes but don’t have any more points available, you can look for specific pieces of gear that grant bonuses. Anything that’s yellow rarity or higher will have a pretty high chance of increasing one of the 4 main attributes, thus increasing your secondaries and allowing you to equip a greater variety of armour and weapons.

Quests and Attribute Rewards

Of course, leveling up isn’t the only way to get points. Certain world quests that are scattered around the map can give Attribute points and Mastery points as a reward. The following quests will give you a single Attribute point upon completion:

• Defend the Enclave
• Headhunt
• The Shattered God
• The Tricksters Shrine

Make sure to complete as many quests as possible before you face a major boss like Pan. The XP given will help level you up further and give you more options if you’re struggling.

Resetting your Attributes

If you realise you’ve made a bit of a mistake in your attribute selection, and want to refund all of your points, head over to the Ritual Shrine in Pyrgos.

Select the Ritual of Athena and choose to refund all of your attribute points. This isn’t exactly a cheap option, and it will get pricier depending on how many points you want to refund. This is why you should decide what to invest in before you level up too far.

Having a loose plan will help you greatly as more content gets released for Titan Quest 2.
