Would you like to get started with Throne and Liberty for the first time, but don’t know exactly which build is suitable for a smooth start, a fast leveling phase and maybe even the end game? MeinMMO has a strong recommendation for you!
What kind of build is this? Anyone who has already looked at our tier list of the best weapons in Throne and Liberty knows that we recommend, among other things, several combinations with sword and shield or magic wand and tome for leveling up.
With the advantages mentioned, you could start your adventure straight away with this combination. However, the overall damage of this weapon combination is too low for us, and at the same time the mana costs are quite high. Both increase the level tempo.
Therefore, to get started, we recommend the combination of sword and shield plus two-handed sword, which lets you whirl through groups of enemies almost non-stop. If you need a little more self-healing in a tricky spot, you can always use a magic wand and tome for a short time – the weapon can keep you alive even at the lowest level.
This trailer gets you in the mood for the adventure in Throne and Liberty:

This is how you increase your values
Your first goal is to improve your mana efficiency. Therefore put the first 20 points into wisdom. Definitely not anymore, as from then on you will receive fewer benefits for each additional point of wisdom. From level 22 onwards, switch your focus to mobility in order to optimize your maximum weapon damage, crit chance, evasion and attack speed – again with 20 points.
The last nine points up to the maximum level 50 then go into strength. So the priority list looks like this:

General tips
Selection of active skills
If you equip a two-handed sword plus a sword and shield in the weapon box in the tutorial, you will have exactly the same number of skills available that you can put in the skill bar. Exchanging skills is worthwhile at levels 18 and 24:
Selection of passive skills
You can activate up to eight passive skills during the level phase. Here is our recommendation:
This is how you upgrade your skills
During the level phase you can upgrade your skills through growth books. Prioritize the skills as follows, bringing all of the skills mentioned to blue first before targeting the purple levels:
You can then upgrade all other skills that you use as you wish. The following priority sequence is recommended for passive skills:
Sword and shield in action:
This is how you modify your skills
From level 15 you can spend specialization points to modify your skills. Here are our recommendations:
How to play for leveling
Note again: Whenever possible, always counter rage attacks with Shield Survival Technique to restore health and mana (through the passive skill Resilient Spirit).
It’s best to start a fight against many targets with DaVinci’s Courage. Follow up with Piercing Attack, Provocative Roar, Willbreaker, Frost Cleaving, and Bold Strike. Make sure you always use Willbreaker after Provocative Roar. You can use chain hooks to bring distant targets into the fray.
