I Need An Awesome Templar Tank Build

KingDuncanVII · April 2016

I need a detailed guide on great Tank builds for both a Magicka build and a Stamina build for a Templar. I've never been a Tank so I'm going in blind, here.

No. DK aren't the only good tanks. Problem not solved.

I'm actually making an intro to Stamplar Tanking video now... I can let you know when it's done and I have all my footage together. Hopefully next week!

The basic concept of stamplar tanking is:

On your main tank bar, have your general tank abilities plus blazing shield (for the aoe, shield, and the passives) and channeled focus (or restoring focus if you so please).

On my offbar I like to slot bow so I can use bombard for the cc and repent for the stamina.

Somewhere you'll want to slot power of the light for the dps.

I run 7 heavy sword and board. 5 histbark reinforced on armor defending on sword, 5 pce footman's (3 jewels 2 armor) and two pieces of either different monster sets for a lot of health or death's wind for armor.

Bar- Absorb magic, pierce armor, channeled focus, blazing shield, structured entropy.

Aim for 27- 30k health with 32,500 armor and spell resist when standing in channeled rune.

That is the basic look at my build, anyway. He's taken some serious beatings xD

That would be awesome! Is it Magicka or Stamina?

Thanks. Do you usually go with Magicka or Stamina?

its a work in progress, but it works quite well

and some video to show you how it works single target, as well as a link to the build thread im working on. i have been playing this build for a few months now, currently has been through every group setting in game and completed it (with exception of Vmol). highest dsa so far with it is 34k+. it literally just plain works. definitely not a "meta" build though.
