With Titan Quest 2 set to continue the beloved dual-mastery class system, players are once again given the freedom to mix and match skill trees to create over 36 possible classes. Each combination leads to a unique playstyle — from spell-slinging glass cannons to sturdy melee tanks or ranged trap specialists.
In this guide, we’ll break down:
- What Masteries are and how class creation works
- The full list of known and speculated class combinations
- A Titan Quest 2 Class Tier List based on performance, synergy, and versatility
- Recommendations for newcomers and returning fans
Let’s dive into the legendary world of Myths and Monsters — Titan Quest style.
What Are Classes in Titan Quest 2?
Classes in Titan Quest 2 are formed by combining two Masteries. You’ll pick:
- First Mastery at Level 2
- Second Mastery at Level 8
Once you’ve locked in your choices, they cannot be changed — so it’s worth experimenting in early levels before committing. Masteries act as full-fledged skill trees, with active abilities, passives, and stat scaling that shape your entire build.

Best Starting Classes for Beginners
If you’re just starting out in Titan Quest 2, here are some safe and satisfying picks:
- Oracle – If you like spellcasters with high damage and range.
- Conqueror – For a more forgiving, tanky melee experience.
- Ranger – If you prefer ranged attacks with the added safety of pets.
- Elementalist – For pure spellcasting with classic fire-and-lightning gameplay.
Titan Quest 2 brings back the freedom of class creation, which was the soul of the original game. With dozens of possible class combinations and the ability to customize playstyle through Mastery Points, Feats, and Attributes, no two builds need to be the same.
And since masteries are permanent once chosen, take your time experimenting in early levels — because your chosen class will shape the rest of your journey.
