    radiant destruction is to easily interrupted, it's a channel ability, it should be good damage.

    and the damage is nothing better then any other finishing move

    The ability is stronger than an ultimate, and you can use it consistenly. Even if you get interrupted using it, the Templar can simply move on to the other plethora of powerful spells they have to use - and not to mention the best heal in the game.

    my soulstrike( ultimate) is 24k base damage over 3.9 seconds. radient destruction is 9k over 3.5 seconds.
    you have no idea what your talking about.

    you if they are in execute range the ticks go waaay up and it EXECUTES them. but for normal health and shield stacking a simple crushing shock light attack weave will do more than 9k in 3.5 seconds and you have the option to block, dodge, cast other spells etc
    its VERY good but people need some perspective.
    on top of that to get my numbers this high moving towards glass cannon and stamina builds are tearing through me.

    About Radiant Destruction, it's clearly bugged on PTS and will never reach live. It start doing execute dmg for me already around 80-90% health lol. Fun as hell, but dont expect it to last.

    Several people have tested it and it starts at 50% health. Try retesting, 'cause for me the damage was the exact same figure for 100%-50%.

    And don't be fooled. When you first cast it your magicka dips due to the cost. Over the first second or two as your magicka recovers your damage goes up due to the 40% bonus based on max magicka.

    I think I can safely say that while Templars will still be the lowest DPS, the gap is no longer as massive as it used to be and for at least Stamina Templars our single target is definitely competitive.
    Bobbity Boop, this game might become poop, but I'll still play because I'm just a pile of goop!

    As a NB Healer I was always capable of good DPS while Healing. The changes on for 1.6 on PTS only reinforced that.

    Hence there is no reason why a healer shouldn't be allowed to gear/spec towards DPS and be competitive.

    I do when in a good group run with my Guild where everyone knows not to stand in stupid and what not. I get much higher Healing/DPS numbers when I do so, but it's at a cost. If something goes horribly wrong I OOM very fast as my DPS gear has nothing for cost reduction or Magicka regen.
