Test and Templars

Skander

So, we are talking again about how these tests made magicka templar unplayable


How about making hornor the dead a self only skill? You know, so at least you could heal.

@Skander These tests are a joke, they started testing when the best PVP event took place so a lot of players didn't actually participate.
The AOE test's changes literally killed some classes (Templar for example and more), this means less players actually playing these classes during the tests, which also means the test's result are false and does not represent anything.

The test is a resounding success. Anyone who cares about being "competitive" at this point plays a stam NB. Balanced at last

Yeah the tests are just.... bizarre. I mean, I get what they're trying to do but the differential impact on different classes is just astonishing. Latest test came in half way through a session on my mag DK (pvp main). I honestly didn't notice them. I mean, almost all the abilities he uses are single target. I think there was a cooldown when I buffed with volatile armor, but, hey, I don't usually spam that.

I was just tooling around on my templar. She's really a pve healer but does do cyro if I can't get a group elsewhere. Most of her abilities don't work now. Like, her spammable isn't spammable any more, her self healing is all screwed up.... You can obviously adjust - I stuck crushing shock on her, switched some sets around to make her a bit tankier now she can't really heal herself but then I'm like.... if I'm just going to spam crushing shock, and crappy self healing, why would I play a templar? Go play a mage and get crushing shock + frags plus streak and shield etc

It's not the end of the world, but I feel sorry for people who don't have alts / are really invested in their templars.
