![]() The Berserker class in Torchlight 2 is comparable to barbarians, fighters, and other melee classes in the classic RPG archetypes. Playstyle: Melee bruiser that likes to get into no-holds-barred brawlsĭifficulty: Difficult, thanks to low health pool But by following these new tips for Torchlight 2 class builds, players can be confident that their build will remain good throughout the whole game. Ultimately, most builds are viable, and it's up to players to figure out what works for them and remains fun to play. This Torchlight 2 tier list has been updated to provide two powerful build options for each class, to set players new to Torchlight 2 on the right path. Though the Engineer is considered by many to be the best class in Torchlight 2, the best Berserker build is still more effective than the worst Engineer build. Updated Octoby Erik Petrovich : Of all four Torchlight 2 classes, it's difficult to choose a best class, and that's in part thanks to the build diversity of each option. ![]() While there are pros and cons to be considered for each class, there is one considered to be the most powerful and one that players will largely struggle with. ![]() Each has its own unique playstyle and key advantages to dominate in combat. I won’t come out and say that you must buy this game, but I highly recommend it, especially if you’re looking for a something to keep you occupied over the next few months.There are four classes to be found in Torchlight 2, Outlander, Embermage, Berserker, and Engineer. I could easily sink hundreds of hours into this game…twenty bucks is almost a steal when you compare it to sixty dollar games that offer a three-hour campaign. The co-op functionality, the user-friendly game mechanics, and diverse character classes serve to increase this game’s replayability to levels even higher than its predecessor. It’s certainly one of the better games I’ve played this year. It’s a classic example of a company taking a successful game (Torchlight I) and adding even more bells and whistles to make the sequel even better. In the grand scheme of things, Torchlight II is worth its price tag of $19.99 (as of 10/5/12) and then some. I find myself afraid to spend skill points for fear of wasting them, which is sad. Hardcore players who want to stick to their guns can simply choose not to use it. It just makes more sense to me that this game should continue to be user-friendly and implement a full respec option so that all players can be satisfied. Unless you know what skills you want from the get-go, which I can tell you now that most casual players won’t, you’ll be stuck with skills you won’t end up using. I don’t see how removing the ability to respec the points in their entirety will benefit the casual players (like Jennifer). I can see a more hardcore game implementing a mechanic like that, however, this game is designed to be friendly to the casual gamer. While I understand that this design forces players to live with the consequences of their actions, I must point out that the Torchlight series has always been a casual game, at least to me. If you dump a whole bunch of points into one skill that you discover won’t be using anymore later on…it’s too bad, so sad. My sole complaint, and it is fairly relevent, is that the game only allows you to respec the last three skill points you’ve spent. You can store items you find for your other characters in the “shared stash.” ![]() Torchlight allowed me to play from start to finish without any hiccups and so far, Torchlight II is proving to be the same experience…which to me, is a good thing. I shouldn’t have to rely on an auction house to progress further and see endgame content…but that’s a different beast that I won’t go into here. ![]() I’ll be honest, I haven’t touched Diablo III in months because of how insanely difficult Inferno mode is and how grindy it can be when it comes to finding gear. Diablo III is a rather large contender, but I am finding myself drawn to Torchlight II more because of its casual atmosphere. Having played all of the games in the Diablo series and having put countless hours into Torchlight I, I’m pleased to report that wading my way through monsters in Torchlight II was both satisfying and fun. This is a welcome addition to the Torchlight series and I commend Runic for making this incredibly easy to manage.Īlright, so we know that logistically, everything is stable and relatively seamless, but how does it play? You could progress a few levels solo one day, then jump into some co-op with the same character the next. As you progress, quit, and resume playing, you’ll be able to choose each time what mode you’d like to play in. There’s a few more options to choose from this time around.Īfter choosing a difficulty, you’ll have the option to play single player or multiplayer via network or LAN. ![]()
