So.....

With the gambler, you can get some very nice uniques from him as well as uniques set items. I believe MF helps you with your chances to obtain uniques.
The gambler is also based on the level of the area. So if you are playing the game for the first time, I believe the gambler will give you items that are around level 20. In addition, once you beat the game and unlock mapworks, you will also have a gambler there. The BIG difference is that the gambler in the mapworks is based on your level. meaning that, if you are level 100, the items you will get will be around level 100. In simple terms, the gambler in mapworks scales with your level. very cool huh?


However, from my experince, once you get to level 100, it also gets harder to get uniques from him. I have MF of 40 and it is damn hard to get some of the high level set items.

I hope this helps.

@caije, I would like to ask you... what skills are you using for your S&B build? I am curious to know if we have a similair build or not ;)

I have one of each class... however I've been playing mostly my engineer and outlander.

I am not sure if there is a way to check this information. It also might be a good idea to post this question to the Runic - Torchlight 2 forums: http://forums.runicgames.com/viewforum.php?f=29

I do not like the filter system for multiplayer games. I want an option to "hide full games" and some other "minor" stuff.

Other than that, I think the game is a lot of fun. I really like the map room. Very interesting and cool idea.

@Caledus You will be able to use your "offline" characters for online play.

I am enjoying it so far. I started 2 characters and I have been rotating between them. My only complaint is that the game has been freezing on me to the point where I cannot alt-tab out of the game to close it and the only way to close it is a forced restart of my computer. I never had this problem with other games, so I am assuming it is TL2. I have been trying to find a solution on their support forums, but I have not found anything. Has anyone had a problem similar to the problem that I am having?

Hello everyone.

I have a few questions about stat distribution and play style for the engineer.

I plan on playing an engineer as my first character. The problem that I am facing is that I want to play both the 2-Handed melee and Tank style (both are interesting to me). I know that in the beginning I will be limited to my respect choices and I am sure there will be a respect mod at some point.

However, I feel like the point distribution will be my biggest problem in terms of switching between the two play styles. For 2-Handed I am thinking that a 2-1-2 (Str/Dex/Vit) or 3-2 (str/vit) is a good setup. For tanking I think a 2-3 (str/vit) will work good.

With this in mind, would I be better off just creating 2 separate engineers, where one would be focusing on 2-handed and the other focusing on Tanking? Or is it possible to combine the 2 play-styles on one character? (for example: at level 2 go with the 3-2 (str/vit) for 2-handed and at level 3 go with the 2-3 (str/vit) for tanking.

Any Ideas or suggestions??
Feedback and ideas are appreciated.

(I also must say that I never played the Beta and that I understand the game is not released yet, but I still wanted to ask this question as I am trying to setup my character before the officail launch)

I will start with an Engineer. The opitions look nice and I also enjoy tanking. Ember Mage and Berseker also look nice!!

bulldog or hawk. Both are interesting for me. Maybe I will make 2 characters and have one of each pet... problem solved :)
