Templars will be removed from the game.

Breath of life will now heal for 50% more, affect up to 9 targets, apply a 60 second shield equal to 400% of your total magicka, and have a 5% increased cost.

Breath of life has been moved to the sorc skill line, and had a chance to automatically cast for free whenever crystal frags hits a target or you damage a target with overload.

Overload is now the basic light attack when using a lightning staff.

All players with a v 16 templar will receive a $5 mail in rebate for TES 6.

Edit for hotfix: Ambush now disables all USB ports on PC and automatically turns off controllers on console. In addition any player damaged by a nightblade will have their utility bills increased by $20 for that month.

ZOS will fully aknowledge the Templar issues, the bugs will be fixed, certain skills will be buffed, and the Stamina Templars will get a much needed lift!

I change my vote to,

WE JUST GOT FUXKED OVER, BIG TIME.

Wtf was u thinking zos. Who is the moron coming up with this sh!t.
I thought we as templars couldn't get nerfed anymore could we????
Well u just proved me, wrong.
The next stage is to just delete the templar class all together.

Guys relax. Sweep got buffed to 6m from 5. Totally worth it now. So what if a spammable dual wield ale is 9k. Who needs that?

tennant94 · February 2016

ZOS doesn't need to change anything with the Templar class, I don't know what you're talking about!

Breath of life needed a nerf, it was and still is an extremely powerful ability that realistically hasn't been hit that hard. Dark flare now does more damage and jabs has the snare, making more jabs hit. Templars will do better in pvp.

Awesome glAd my jabs do the proper damage on shields oh wait nvm burning light can't proc on shields

@AOECAPS your still doing full damage with your jabs the extra proc from the passive is irrelevant. However, I agree. Maybe it should proc vs damage shields.

lol so not critting and not proccing extra damage is irrelevant? That's extra damage that helps Burn people down faster instead of them stacking another shield and streaking lol. Neither one of those things make sense and is just an extra buff to shields. Our main dos ability not putting out the damage that it can a because of a shield is poor game design. Instead I have to rely on WB spam to burn through a shield and watch ppl qq on here about wrecking blow spam.all Templars want r class abilities to work supposedly toppling charge is fixed and radiant but truth be told highly doubt it

tennant94 · February 2016

@AOECAPS That is a problem for every class not just Templars. I say problem but really I think it's not, it's balanced.

I have not test with my templar yet. However, I'm thinking of retiring my templar for a DK or NB just base on the patch notes. My opinion is, that ZOS has defecate upon my templar far too many times since the release of ESO. Nearly 2 years has laps since ESO release and thus I've lost all faith in ZOS ability to design and maintain templars and classes in general.

yep every class has an issue where a lot of its damage comes from a passive that won't proc lol. Go back to your sorc or NB well actually you better start leveling up your magicka DK. It is a problem but I guess you just can't comprehend it. I've blasted someone with jabs and done nothing to their shields when then I can hit them with a wrecking blow and do 4 times the damage because of some wonky mechanic.

knew templars would get smacked around again.

stamblades took a hard hit, too.

Talyena · February 2016

I was upset at first, then I thought about it and realized it isn't really my problem. Fact is, other players will just have to adjust for being healed less. They might have to put more points into resists or health or just pay more attention to all those red things on the ground. Either it will all work itself out and DPS players will be fine with sacrificing DPS for survivability, or DPS players will call for healing buffs. Either way things will work out just fine for healers.

KingYogi415 · February 2016

ZOS will not aknowledge any of the Templar issues, nothing will change overall besides a few meaningless tweaks!

Ahh I chose this as a joke wtf

You can still cc break it. I'm not sure what is so OP about that skill. I call it free cc immunity personally.

Vaelastrasza · February 2016

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

I dont played the game nearly 1 year in hope the bugs will be fixed already when i came back but the same sh*** is going on again and the locking bug... hope isnt high within the comunity that something will change

At least, I can now be a Magicka-Templar DPS. Tired of healing people who stand in red anyways. Let other classes be healers then. Let's see how that goes.

This is because Zos always set theyr priority to new content or crown store when they should fix the existing content! This will never change i think... look at Skyrim! There was several known bugs and bethesda dont cared about it! Only the modders fixed this bugs by themselfs... invisible shield bug, vampire head bugs, the moving manequins bug and so on! Nothing fixed by the publisher! Why do you think in this game something will change? Because its an MMO?

We got a 1% buff to Radiant Ward, there is no need to be upset with the BoL nerf.

LOL Its funny because some of the buffs are just so slight to the point of not even being worth mentioning, but; some might be alright. In the end, I think the nerf to BOL is the least of the nerfs. The real nerfs are probably actual fixes to bugs that we shouldn't have had as an advantage in the purify preemptively voiding attacks, and it looks like the magicka return of rune focus sticking on you outside of the circle might have been fixed.

Still think it doesn't really matter. From when I watch the few exceptional Templars that do well in PvP who 1vx; typically they have one thing in common. They have LOS to dance around and heal up and then some used Purifying Ritual like mad. So, you have to be pro at that; which you could do the same easier with most other classes. Templar just lacks a real proactive defense with the loss of blinding flashes and the worthlessness of blazing shields size and duration and of course the purifying ritual bug we never should have had. And Templars lack escape and mobility. Both of those things are key in PvP and is the one missing component that takes Templars from really good in PvE to crap in PvP.
