Good guide as always, but I think in current meta stamplar should be chosen only over stamsorc.

Cadbury

As one of brave few who mains a Stamplar, I salute you, Alcast and the others who fight on.

Great video as usual.

I don't get why so many people cry about stamplars, I do fine with mine in pvp against all classes. I think they are OP, tbh...

Skinzz

Stamplars are strong. Biting jabs are nb killers. I know cause i have both classes and usually get jabbed to death lol

They got pretty heavily buffed this patch..and they were already freakin nasty as hell.

Well..stamplars and stam sorcs are the worst setups you can run yes....yet I kill most FOTM *** easily in 1v1s.
Yes sure I would do better on a Stam DK or Stam NB, but where is the fun

The only buff to Stamplars I could see is Mending and javeling range increase. But those really help. Still more improvements are possible


The only reason why stamplar is even viable is PURIFYING RITUAL actually..literally can cleanse away everything lol

No sir DKS got hurt bad.... unless you run food but if you run drinks damage decrease is very noticable... 7k leaps sucks ...we depend on our ultimates..

You lost 2 to 3k off leap base damage
People are running 15% to 20+% hardy

This was a huge change g or those of us that run this build.... we are still ok but much harder to play . HONESTLY I have switched to stamplar and find it easier....

Interesting, I will start playing stamina DK tmr. Someone told me that take flight is not affected by Mighty anymore, is that true?

Durham

Take flight is off stamina instead of weapon damage ..
Like I said unless you use food but we have to drinks do to tge high use of high cost magicka abilities .. so most of went high weapon damage high regen...... take flight was our thing with out it we are weaker then a Stamplar. The changes to hardy also double hit it... the only way I can get to where it needs to be is use food which is bad in PVP for us...

KoreanAwtamatic

Nice build and video. I honestly love playing stamplar. I find it challenging and fun especially running sword and board. Bow and 2 hand is the only set up I haven't tried yet, started with dual wield/2 hand then went sword and board 2 hand and haven't looked back.

Did Take flight always scale of stamina only? Or what? Or did smth change?
I dunno, I usually run full nuke build. But ye the hardy change is prolly the worst *** that could happen...no worries, we get rebalanced next patch LOL

Speely

Very nice work as usual, Alcast. I am leveling a Stamplar now that I am absolutely loving. Your vid gave me some great ideas.

I am going DW instead of Bow for my second bar. The Binding Javelin buff sold me on it (used to use Magnum Shot for the charge combo.) It really is SO much more useful at 28m, and it hits harder with DW (i.e. a litle bit less wet of a noodle.) I lose some utility from no Bombard, but Flying Blade is actually a decent opener with Camo Hunter up and I have found it to be workable.

Really like your setup/gear. I need those Maestrom weapons asap. I prefer to set up multiple Crit Charges during a fight and want to maximize the damage.

Also, Stamplars are really awesome and vesatile. My main loves:

Major Mending on a Stam build.

Great purge that provides the above buff.

Jabs are an amazing tool for both PvE DPS and vs stealthers in PvP.

Repentance is holy goodness for PvE and a source of decent Stamina healing.

Basically I have found that Stamplars have nearly as much versatility as Magplars (which I love and main) aside from healing, but play a bit "tougher" for lack of a better term. I play an Orc, and MA + Swift Warrior is a real gem of a combo given our low mobility. In some ways the Major Expedition nerf was a boon for Stamplars. Food for thought.

The mending change; along with thaumturge increasing dot damage (jabs)... View other changes to increase Templar in general as well... But Stam Templars are no slouches

that makes no sense and must be a bug. Or to ALL ultimates only scale of Magicka and Stamina?

Tooltip wise mine does as much damage as usual. I am on full burst build tho

That's is running stamina food.. very high stamina with little resource management ... that is definitely burst .. while your ultimate is high your wreaking blow and weapon abilties will be the same... I run 3500 weapon damage with over 2k+ stam regen... over 1k magicka... regen ... my leap went from 19k base to 15.7k after patch... Dragon Leap was awsome when it was on weapon damage ...

I will try a full stamina build tonight with less weapon damage ... I have not tried that honestly.. but in doing so my ability win prolonged fight goes down substantially...

But I still do not get it, I mean the only change that should have happened and hit stam builds is the HARDY change. Did you run HP/Stam food before and now you run regen food so that is why your Take flight is lower dmg? I will go pvp today to see how much it affects my build

leepalmer95

People underestimate the wb into jabs

Ashamray

You are really good in AC.
Anyways, cancelled WB looks disgusting )

Leap was on Weapon Damage (now its on Stamina) .... This is a nerf to most of us that solo or play small man... 1 v X play is all about resource management ...

Before patch the go to build for most of us stamina DK's was around 3500 Weapon Damage with good resource managment ... our strength was Dragon Leap in combination with empower from WB...

You need about 2000 stam regen, 1000+ magicka regen to effectively manage your resources... If you run food your magicka will be about 600 your stam depending on build will be around 1500 with mundus without mundus around 1200....

I tested leap and I used to hit max for 23k before patch, now on a enemy WITHOUT armor its 14k wtf? Do you know if that change from weap dmg to stamina on take flight is intended?

Tooltip is still as strong as before tho. I will create a forum QQ thread about this bug

Also, it does scale with weapon damage too, tested that.

Have to agree. I find the sword and shield awesome in PvP - nothing more satisfying than watching a WB or tornado spammer continuously rage your shield then hit them on the counter. I just couldnt get into using a two-hander found it slow and clunky (I think im just a jab-jab type of guy )

But yeah, I love my templar in PvP since moving from magicka to stamina.

Now if we could have a rune that restored stamina instead of magicka ...

Yes it was intended...
Before patch 19 k delve. Weapon damage build 30k stam
After patch 15.7 delve. Weapon damage build 30k stam

I tested yesterday...
With 37k stam, 3500 Weapon Damage, Empower, (23k delve) and criting...... 15k hit on a VR3 with light armor... my hardest hit.... non crits.. most were coming in around 11k ... with out empower around 8-10k ..
