✭Templars are viable. here's a video from @blabafat showing us how.

that's a 5L 1H 1M templar you're seeing, and it's 1vX-ing like crazy
i'm pretty sure something like this is also doable with weapon/armror skilsl opnly and whatever class' passives. using the terrain well, catching palyers off-guard and especially killing noobs all work regardless of class balance.
I can also 1vX well on my TP in several situations. That doesn't change the fact that 1) other classes can do better and most importantly 2) it only works when you're klucky with the amount of enemies incoming. you cannot pick your fights as templar - at least FAR FAR worse than any other class. And picking your fights is the #1 thing when runnign solo / in groups < 4.
I don't know @blabafat because he sdeems to be NA. But my guess is, most (all?) of his videos are under the bridge and include allies runnig around are due to that very fact. Move away from such a safety-position and you start to feel the templar pain
I've been able to do a few 1vXing on my templar with my new build, but Its usually when Im going against people who are really bad at pvp or people who are like V1.
Only once have I 1v2 a V14 NB and DK and won, and Its a very rare occurrence I'll ever be able to kill a sorc.~Thallen~0 -

there enough V14 sorcs (on EU at least) that will let you reflect more than one crytal frag and/or overload light attack in a row using defensive stance. some will even drop a meteor if their frags got reflected. killing bad players (or groups of them) is no magic, really.
killing really good sorcs, though ...

U can be classless viable too in some way but not in comparison.Edited by Mumyo on 24 April 2015 18:170
