    You have to kill their magicka before you can win. Think of Blazing shield as a melee version of reflective scales. Just like RS you don't want to blow all your resources doing damage to yourself. You need to keep them slowed or locked down while fighting them from ranged until they run out of magicka for their shield. Keep your block ready because they will charge you to get you in melee range. After the charge kite around them, don't stay still because they will open with biting jabs to try and kill your stamina and get you locked into it. If you see biting jabs hit them with a good CC because they are vulnerable while trying to lock someone in it.
    • Stay out of melee range, so the shield burst doesn't harm you.
    • Use ranged attacks without blowing your resources (light/heavy low cost dots)
    • Be ready to block his gap closer
    • Circle kite the biting jabs and CC them because they are vulnerable
    • Most importantly make him waste his magicka coming after you instead of wasting your resources going after him and doing damage to yourself.
    • If they speed spam blazing shield just spam light attacks so you look like a threat while they waste all their magicka reflecting a few light attacks.
    • If the temp is getting pounded on by others and you are in melee range then..."Get to the chappah!"

    You can drain templar's stamina much more faster than his magicka if he play magicka build. So use your double shades to waste his stamina, use dots, root and fear as much as possible. Burst them down before they have a chance to cast shield or heal.

    Possible burst rotation is; ambush-ultimate-fear-execute.
