Overwhelm and Flow are stack mechanics that you gain by using basic attacks. Some class skills in Titan Quest 2 use Overwhelm and Flow stacks to deal more damage. To get these stacks, you can modify your basic attack skill to give Overwhelm on hit, while Flow has a 20% to generate on hit. Here are more details on this mechanic so you can get stronger in Titan Quest 2.
Overwhelm and Flow Mechanics
The basic attack skill can be outfitted with modifiers like Vitality Drain, Hamstring, and Indomitable to give your attacks more utility. Overwhelm and Flow by themselves do nothing and grant no bonuses, but they work as your class resource to fuel your other skills. Some skills that synergize with these stacks include the following:

How To Gain Overwhelm and Flow
