What will happen to Templars with the patch? Place your bets!

Joy_Division · February 2016

ZOS will aknowledge some of the Templar issues, they will try to fix the bugs but fail, nothing will be buffed!

People, and that means people who mains NBs and sorcerers, will claim the initial changes make templars OP. Zos will then listen to that specific feedback and nerf templars accordingly.

I think that you will have 2 skills you can use the rest will be revamped and force you to go light Armour and heal or medium and try to imitate Nightblade

Not me. I will always play my sorc and NB because they are fun. I WANT to play my Templar again and I actually hope they make a lot of very fun changes to the MAGICKA Templar.

They did mention they are "tweaking" BoL.

I'm scared guys. Very scared.

[EDIT] On a real note. I DO think we will see some fixes and buffs to help stamplars and such... but I really am afraid of the BoL tweak.

We were farming vCoH for the helm with 3DD Sorcs (one with off-heals) and my Magicka DK, so I know exactly what this is like...

To be completely honest I made a magicka NB and heal just fine in most group dungeons just doing DPS. I rarely have to use a resto staff spell.

The mandatory "templar OP nerf" threads will be posted a day or two after new PTS comes back up. You all know it lol.

Same story before every new major patch, since the early days of ESO.

There's the nightbladesorcs spamming the forum about templar OP on PTS and omg attention everyone is going to reroll templar now.

ZoS listens to that specific feedback and takes all the buffs away. But they keep the nerfs and of course fails to fix the bugs.

-Hardcore healing nerf due to pvp streamers.
-Mediocre increases to DPS.
-Focused charge broken even worse.

I hope for the best but I would not be surprised if nothing happened.

"We feel like Templars are in a good spot right now." kinda thing.

Although.. I really hope they will revive stamplars.

I hope for the best. But i think the 6th option will become real considering so many complaints about it. 5th option is little bit more realistic and mix of 6th and 4th options would be the worst scenario i can ever think. Fingers crossed either way.

Unfortunately I have a really terrible feeling this is exactly what will happen.

1) They will give us abilities to fight.
2) Nerds will cry on PTS that Templars are too op and they cant win their fights by clicking Surprise Attack 7 times. <like every other Templar PTS>
3) They will try to nerf it but break it as always.
4) Templars will enter Thievery DLC semi bugged with 75% of skills not working properly/or as intended and will stay so till next DLC or unless a templar-qq-issues-thread like the one mid 2015 happens.

Happened multiple times already. Nothing else to expect. Cant even fix eclipse bugs for the last 1 year - making eclipse only work on 1 target didnt help - give it a 1 min CD. Op spells must be shut down ASAP.

Good luck brother templars, fingers crossed!

Every "patch" i remember people saying OMG u gonna be a demigod when this hits live and everytime they were wrong

Thing is that even if they get buffed... others wont be nerfed and even buffed instead. They try to balance and change the champion system at the same time... not smart!

If they are going to be doing a lot of nerfing they are going to need to do some repairing and buffing.

We already know that Cleansing Ritual is going to take a big hit in pvp.
Tweaking breath of life probably means that Nightblades will actually heal better with funnel (and do more damage).
Breath of life is perhaps the best Templar skill, and tweaking probably means nerfing.
If they do not also improve the rest of the class to make up for these changes, Templar will be in a very bad state.

Quod erat demonstrandum

I guess this. Really thinking atempt fixes with some slight buffs with or because of the fixes, but with nerfs to BOL and purify. Then subsequently decide we're buffed to far and undo the buffs, keeping BOL NERFS and create new bugs. Charge will still lock,you out of combat but with a new animation of the templar weeping.

SeventhCelestial · February 2016

I honestly feel Templars are the most balanced in the game right now. Unfortunately, that makes them inadequate to the broken or 'exploited' other classes. People complain about breath of life, so there will be continual complains there.
