Templars

Question!
With PvP being a Templar fest, I feel I need to make a magicka one. And now that Argonian has it's new race changes, I had a question.
I want to make a MagPlar that can be a healer and a crazy DPS fighter in PvP and PvE. Would Argonian be a good choice? Or should I stick with High Elf?

THEDKEXPERIENCE

Doesn't matter. I have an insane DPS magplar on an imperial. Any race can work. Just slot a ton of Mage guild abilies, split your champion points up between thurmatauge (shhhh ... yes it still works on DOTs) and elemental expert. Stack a ton of magic or spell power (doesn't matter which) and run infused or divines (also doesn't matter). Slot Dark Flare, Radiant Oppression or something like stabby sticks and enjoy.

But to answer your question, high elf.

Totalitarian

IMO, you should still stick with Altmer because they get regen, bonus elemental damage, and a lot of max magicka.

Although Argonians are getting healing buffs and magicka buffs, you won't be able to dish out as much damage as an Altmer.

Plus as an Altmer, you get those tall genetics, and magically potent blood...and 1% bonus exp. Yeah, it doesn't matter much your race in this case, especially because Argonians get bonus health.

I prefer the term polearm poke

I went with Breton

FearlessOne_2014

I my opinion even with the buffs to the lizards, Breton is still going to shine more as a magplar that dps and heal. Because mitigation, and that %1 bonus AP.

%1? You might laugh at that but %1 AP gain on the 30 day campaign is huge! And plus you get to stay in the fight longer and push more CPs to other things then mitigation, unless of course you want more.

Thanks guys. One of the main reasons i wanted to run an argonian was mostly due to the shock factor. Just be running around PvP as a lizard and slaughter all. Plus...I love the way Argonians are named, so I wanted to name something hilarious.
The plan was to make an Argonian Potion-Popper MagPlar.

This is what's wrong with PvP Magicka Templars. Summed up in one sentence.

Nope, won't work. Kags and Alchemist are both crafted. Not to mention that you only have, at most, 12 item slots.

Pomaikai

It depends upon the style of Templar that you want to play

What about crafted armor makes it not work? But agreed if you dual wield both bars, at most you can get a 5 piece bonus on only one set.

You can choose any race you want for a Magicka Templar as long as you choose High Elf...

Kinda funny how people who has zero knowledges of templars drowning forum with this "templar OP" myth.

Because the builds for other classes aren't equally obvious? Wrong. The most streamlined builds are pretty obvious on any class. There aren't a lot of options unless you're a nightblade, and I'm not complaining about nightblades. I wish every class were as well thought out as the Nightblade, with an equal amount of fully functioning skills too.

I'm a Dunmer Magicka Templar and I'm happy-happy after killing the Emperor yesterday. ^_^

juhasman

Altmer, Breton, Dunmer still are and will be top 3 for magicka users.

Actually it can work. 3 pcs Kag on armor and dual swords, 4 Alchemist on armor and off bar resto staff. You pop potion on your off bar and swich to main dual wield and have full kagrenac bonus.

So you think it is possible for my Argonian Too-Much-Swag to actually be viable? He may not have as much Spell Damage as a n Altmer, but his increase health passives can help. He can survive a bit better. Plus the buff to "Healing Done" affects the argonian self as well, so now your Puncturing Sweeps and heal you for more, your REsto staff bar can heal for more, plus High Elf is only 10% more recovery. My Sorc has 1700 recovery High Elf. Which means my Templar should only have around 1550 Recovery which is still pretty good.

Argonian will be plenty viable, with swag commin' out your ears.
