Titan Quest Peek #2 @ RPG Vault

RPG Vault is continuing its preview week for the upcoming action-RPG, Titan Quest. Today's installment is written by lead gameplay designer Arthur Bruno. He chronicles his favorite character type:

The Pacifist - Storm / Defense Masteries

The "Paladin" class, created by the unlikely combination of Storm and Defense masteries, may not seem like an obvious choice but it's one that can prove quite effective for those with patience. I decided to try this rather odd pairing for fun, and created a primarily retaliation damage-based character... that is to say, a character focused on skills that damage enemies back after they hit you.

This build gains power slowly, and by level 12, I wondered if it was going to be too weak to be much fun. However, I soon got over the hump and a world of hurt opened up for my enemies. It was hilarious watching monsters my own level killing themselves on me.
