What do I do after entering the game?
- Select a hero and create your character
There are currently 4 unique heroes with different combat styles. The selection cannot be changed, so you must create another character if you want to try another hero.
Rehan's resource is Rage, which he gains when he uses melee attacks or takes damage. So he should pick up melee attack skills.
Her traits are mostly about cold and fire, and she gains energy from using cold and fire skills. She might look like a "mage", but she can also pick up cold and fire melee attack skills.
It's easy to see that he's a seasoned marksman. He can only use ranged weapons, and his traits are about "bullets", so projectile skills are best for him.
Youga is undoubtedly a mage, and his traits are Spacetime Magic Circles and Spacetime Illusions. Stand in the circle to gain spell damage bonuses. The Spacetime Illusion also casts the core spell automatically, but not including channeled spells and summon spells.
Enter the game after creating a character. Follow the main story to gain a better understanding of Leptis, learn about skills, talents, and gear.
- Main Story (Level 1 to 50)
There are 3 main chapters, and your character should be around level 50 when you're done. If you don't know what skills or talents to pick, you can try using these recommendations.
Berserker Rehan
His initial skill is Focused Slash, and he will learn Hammer of Ash through the main story. The Lava Rift will make up for his lack of reach, and his survivability is boosted by Hardened. We recommend starting with the God of Might talent, with affixes like attack damage increase, fire damage increase and physical damage increase.
Frostfire Gemma
Split Firebolt, her initial skill, is a very practical one. It splits when it hits an enemy, so it's easy to clear enemy packs even without Multiple Projectiles. She can learn support skills like Efficient Cast, Elemental Fusion and Wind Projectiles to increase her spell hit and damage. As for talents, we suggest starting with Goddess of Knowledge, then follow up with affixes like spell damage increase, fire damage increase, spell critical strike and cast speed.
Divineshot Carino
Ice Shot, his initial skill, is also very practical. Combine it with Multiple Projectiles to boost his pack-clearing ability. Then unlock Thrill, Added Cold Damage, Wind Projectiles to augment Ice Shot. Start with the Goddess of Hunting talent, then select Projectile Damage Increase, Attack Speed and Projectile speed as affixes.
Spacetime Witness Youga
Ice Lances, the initial skill, is good at clearing packs because it bounces. Combine with Freeze Chance, Control Spell (can be skipped if critical strike is hard to stack during early game) and Wind Projectiles to increase damage dealt. Start with the Goddess of Knowledge talent, then add affixes for spell damage and cast speed.
This is a long journey, but changing skills and talents during this time are both free, so feel free to explore and find your comfort zone!
- Netherrealm (Level 50 to 99)
When you complete most of the main story quests and receive an invitation from the Netherrealm Mentor, you can enter Netherrealm Challenge through the Clockwork Core in the top right corner of the Hideout.
Beacon: The ticket to the Netherrealm. Earned from killing monsters in Netherrealm or through the Trade house.
Timemark: Represents the difficulty of the Netherrealm. The higher the Timemark, the higher the difficulty. Defeat the watchers in the area to increase Timemark level.
Loot: Challenge the Netherrealm to get amazing items, such as gear, crafting materials, Fate Cards and legendary gear.
Lastly, we want to emphasize that Torchlight: Infinite is a game that encourages exploring different builds. This is just a very rudimentary guide to get you started, and is not meant to be the only solution. We hope to see you trying out all the possibilities in Leptis, and share your experience with us. It will really help us going forward. Thank you!
