Note: Enabling a code could get your account separated from unmodified versions of Torchlight 2. Some may mark you as a suspicious player.

Scattered throughout the game are hidden 'Robot Part' quest items. They are all located inside dungeons. Once you find the first Robot Part, a side quest called 'Robot Parts' will begin. The five robot parts are located in the following locations:

Act 1

Widow's Veil (Crow's Pass): Light all the unlit braziers throughout the dungeon to unlock a secret room containing the first part; the Robotic Drum.

Act 2

Tower Of The Moon (Ossean Wastes): Hit each of the gongs throughout the dungeon to unlock a secret area containing the Robotic Arm.

Brood Hive (Salt Barrens): Reach the last floor of the dungeon, then crush all the roach eggs to unlock a secret area containing the Robotic Pipes.

Act 3

Abandoned Sawmill (Blightbogs): Remove the skeletons stuck to the walls to unlock a secret area containing the Robotic Body.

Cacklespit's Realm (Sundered Battlefield): To reach Cacklespit's Realm, you must first complete a quest to find a bell in the Marshlands. Place the bell, and complete the side quest to unlock Cacklespit's Realm. In this dungeon, destroy three tree stumps to unlock a secret area containing the Robot Head.

Note: The robot parts cannot be returned to the Professor until The Broken Mines are open through the main questline in Act 4. Return to the Zeryphesh in Act 2, and take the five robot parts to Professor Stoker. He will construct the Trillbot-4000, a secret quest-giver and returning character from the original Torchlight. Speak with him to unlock new dungeons, and quests to fight tough bosses.

You can find a hidden CL4P-TP (Claptrap) from Borderlands in Bloatfang's area in Act 3: 'Some Assembly Required'. Defeat the Bloatfang, then go to the ledge where the Automaton Power Source and chest are located. Follow the path leading south and west around the Boss area. At the southern part of the level, you can find a CL4P-TP between some rocks. He will congratulate you for defeating Bloatfang and give you Claptrap's Bolt (Armor/Trinkets: Increase charge rate by 10%, Weapon: Conveys 5% chance to Shock for 5 seconds, item Level 32).

During Act 3, continue doing quests until you are told to go to the Sundered Battlefield. In the battlefields, go to the very top northern edge of the map. Near the tip, you should find the entrance to the 'Notch's Mine' dungeon. Notch is the handle of Markus Persson, a co-founder of Mojang and one of the original developers of Minecraft. Inside this very small dungeon, you will find some evil Creepers — infamous Minecraft enemies that hide in the shadows and explode when they get close. At the end of the dungeon, there is a treasure chest with a very unique weapon inside called the Iron Sword. The sword does 297 damage per second and is Level 42.

An early vendor resembles the stranger from Resident Evil 4, opening his jacket to reveal his wares in a similar manner.

Early in the game, you can find a dungeon called Plunder Cove. You can access the area after finding a Lantern in the Temple Steppes. It is a reference to The Goonies movie. Inside you can find the body of 'Chester Cobblepot' who will drop a unique item called 'One Eyed Willy's Other Eye'.

In the Frosted Hills, you can find a special dungeon full of Bandits. Inside you can find a bucket attached to a rope near the hole. Clicking it will prompt you to 'Put the lotion in the bucket.' If you find the lotion nearby and click on the bucket again, you will discover 'Buffalo Bill's Hide Mask'. This is a reference to the serial killer in The Silence Of The Lambs movie who would cut off women's skin to wear.

In the Frosted Hills, you can find a special dungeon that pays homage to John Carpenter's The Thing movie. Inside, you will find a book with notes from Blair, a character in the film. Later, you will find a boss in the form of a transforming Netherfiend, a reference to the movie where the alien would take the shape of the humans it killed. You will also get a key to the Kennel, with more wolves inside that also turn into Netherfiends, a reference to the transforming monster dog in the movie. Additionally, you can find a special weapon at the end called 'Macready's Shotgun', a reference to Kurt Russell's character.

Torchlight II comes out tomorrow on Steam. It's a whole lot of fun, and it's different from Diablo III in some very interesting ways.

Torchlight II: The Kotaku Review

Click, kill, loot, level up. Click, kill, loot, level up. Loot, sell, re-equip. Rinse, repeat. Your …

If you're planning on playing the game, I thought I'd look back at my first 30 hours with it and offer some basic pointers. As you head off after the Alchemist, here are some tips to help you get the most out of your first time through Torchlight II

Play Multiplayer, Even If You're Soloing

Every time you start the game, you'll have the option to play single-player, on the internet, or via LAN. I played a lot of the game single-player, but found that once I opened my game up to people, I had even more fun. There's no substantive difference between the two experiences—you can solo the game on the internet, and can even have five other players on your server, all soloing in different parts of the map. But it's neat to be able to hop around, visit your friends, trade loot, and use the universal chat. It's wonderful that Runic has given players the option to play offline, but there's no real reason to.

Be Sure To Make A Level-Cap For Your Server

That said, if you're making a server and letting strangers into your game (which seriously, is fun), be sure to put a level restriction on your room. It can be a little bit weird when a character who outclasses yours by 20 levels shows up and starts plowing through enemies for you. You have control, of course, so just set a cap to let people know that you're trying to keep things fairly close.

If You Play Alongside Friends, Start Together

If you're going to play alongside friends, I recommend starting a new game together. It can be very easy to out-level each other in the early goings, and it's not very fun to play as a level five character alongside even a level ten character. I have a couple of alts that I use for multiplayer, while my main high-level character is really just for soloing.

Check Out The Help Screen

Torchlight II has a lot going on on-screen, so it's really worth clicking the 'help' button down at the bottom and reading what everything does. I leapt into the game without reading it, and about 20 hours later finally checked it out, only to find a bunch of stuff that I didn't really know about.

The Engineer Is Awesome

Er, I just wanted to say that. I haven't played through the game with all four classes, but I can report that the engineer is a wicked-fun class for playing through the game solo. Not only can you use a bunch of different weapons, the engineer's heavy weapons skills and toughness mean that you can go toe-to-toe with the biggest baddies. And honestly, the flame-hammer is one of the most satisfying video game moves of the year. Now, when it comes to leveling up..

Torchlight 2 Classes Guide

Pick One Skill-Ladder And Stick With It

Each class has three skill ladders with corresponding passive skills. You'll get about to level 50 by the end of the game, so expect to have about 50 skill points to divvy up. That said, you'll really want to pick one skill-tree and stick with it for your first playthrough. I got a lot of mileage out of the engineer's first tree, but if I had gone too far into the gadget or shield trees, I would've had to give up some much-needed power on my flame-hammer and seismic slam. I was really glad that I maxed out those two abilities.

Pick Two Stats To Focus On, But Don't Neglect The Others Entirely

Each character also has four stats—Strength, Dexterity, Focus and Vitality. You'll want to pick two to focus on for your build-type, but don't ignore the other three completely. Every weapon has a level-barrier as well as a stat-barrier, and often if your stats are high enough, you can use a really high-level weapon early. For my engineer, it was worth tossing some points into focus and dexterity, even though I was going for a strength/vitality build. In particular, focus is great because mana is always in short supply. (As your character will endlessly remind you, every time you run out.)

Don't Buy Weapons And Armor In Stores

This one's a truism of most action-RPGs, but don't buy loot in stores. The storefront is laden with weaponry, but you'll find gear just as good out in the field. That's not to say that the Torchlight II blacksmith doesn't have anything worth buying, it's just that your money is best spent elsewhere. Namely…

Enchant Your Pants (Off)

When you've done a town-run and have a bunch of fresh coin from your lootings, hit up the local enchanter and enchant everything you have. Enchanting is one of the best ways to get amazing gear in Torchlight II, and every weapon—even high-powered unique weapons—can be further enhanced by an enchanter. You'll also meet enchanters in the wild, but be sure to look at their specialty before paying them. They might offer a service (poison, for example) that you're not that interested in. Through enchanting, I was able to turn a slotted one-handed axe into a peerless murder tool that I used for almost the entire third act, and am still using in New Game+.

Do Some Light Key Re-Mapping

Torchlight 2 New Classes Near Me

This is just a personal thing, but I quickly remapped some of the keys to make the game easier to play. Specifically, I switched the potion hotkey from 'Z' to 'Q' and the mana potion hotkey from 'X' to 'W'. I moved the weapon-switch to 'E'. That way, you can get potions off of the hotbar entirely and focus on using those ten slots for powers and pet power-ups. Also, don't forget that you have an alt-alt-fire on your mouse! You can set two powers to your right mouse-button, the second one is activated by holding down 'Tab.' Counting the mouse, you've got 13 assignable slots, more than enough for even the most overpowered adventurer.

Don't Get Stuck With One Weapon Type

Early on, I put a lot of points into the passive skill that made my character faster and more effective with two-handed weapons. I regretted it later, as I wound up with the aforementioned single-handed axe that was more powerful and faster than any double-handed weapon I could find, and let me use a shield. So, I'd say to go easy on the weapon-specific power-ups, since you never know what kind of weapons you'll wind up fighting with.

Go Fishin'

You'll find fishing holes dotted throughout the world, and I recommend using them all. Fishing is really easy—just wait until the one circle comes down to the other one—but will yield good results. Namely, it'll yield treats you can feed your pet to transform him or her into other forms, all of which can be very useful in combat. Speaking of that..

Don't Forget To Feed Your Pet

It's not just a good rule for the real world! It's also true in Torchlight II. It's easy to accumulate a ton of pet-food and never use it, but it really can be useful to have a stronger or more resilient pet in battle. Especially when you're going into a boss battle, be sure to feed your pet.

Never Enter a Dungeon With No Cash

Torchlight 2 Class Mods

If you die in Torchlight II (and you probably will), you'll be given three options: Respawn where you stand for a bunch of gold, respawn at the top of the area for less gold, or respawn in town for free. Given that some of the dungeons are quite lengthy, you'll want to have enough money to take the middle option just about every time. It's never worth it to respawn where you stand, since you're invariably only a minute or so from where you died. That said, respawning in camp can make it a trek to get back to where you were, particularly if you died fighting a boss. So, keep some cash on you just in case.

Don't Ditch Your Low-Level Potions

In other games like this, low-level potions become useless as your character levels up and your health and mana reserves grow. But in Torchlight II, I found that low-level (starting from the second-smallest size) potions were still useful. Most potions will fully replenish your health or mana, it's usually more about how fast they'll do it, and for how long. Often, I'd come out of a battle with half of my health, and instead of wasting a fast, powerful potion I liked that I could use a cheaper, slower-moving potion that would still replenish my health. So, hang on to those lower-level potions. Well, except maybe for the very lowest level.

Sidequest To Survive

I played a lot of the sidequests in Torchlight II, but I missed a few early on—as a result, there was a period in Act II where I was under-leveled for everything and kept getting my ass handed to me. My advice in Torchlight II would be to do every possible sidequest—the levels come fast in this game, and a single sidequest can give you a level or more's worth of experience. It's worth the time.

Advertisement

Don't Rush Through Act III

I don't want to spoil anything about Act III for you here, but I will say that it is an order of magnitude larger than the two acts that precede it. There are a ton of hidden sidequests, challenges, and full-on storylines to explore. I missed several of them because I was on deadline, but I saw that they were there, and fully plan on going back and exploring them as soon as I can. But really—while the endgame may be beckoning, don't rush through the third act. The best stuff in the game is there, but you do have to go explore and find it all.

Remember: The whole of Torchlight II feels a bit like a bunch of loosely connected sidequests, so when you do sidequests, you're really just… playing Torchlight II. And there are some fantastic dungeons hidden away throughout the game.

So, pick your character, arm up, and sally forth into the great dark beyond. Those monsters aren't going to click themselves to death, after all.
