Titan Quest 2 Earthquake Guide
- Earthquake increases in power the longer you channel it, with each Stage boosting Strike Damage and even applying a stun at Stage 2
- Combines well with Overwhelm sources like
Flame Volley
or 
Ring of Flame
, since the Heavy Impact modifier scales Earthquake’s damage with Overwhelm. - Extended Charge raises the Stage cap and generates Overwhelm automatically, enabling powerful synergy with Earthquake’s scaling and any other abilities or passives that benefit from Overwhelm stacking.
- Fast Channel allows you to reach max Stage faster.
- Strike Damage scaling from Earthquake benefits directly from modifiers like Stone Imbuement (from
Earth Enchantment
) and passives such as 
Concussive Force
, maximizing hybrid potential.
