Magicka Templar Ideas

I am torn between a couple sets: Shacklebreaker, and amberplasm for sustain sets, rattlecage and kagrenac for damage. I want to run skoria two piece and I am planning on dw/sb build. What would be the best combination?

    5 Amberplasm
    5 Shacklebreaker
    2 Valkyns Skoria

    could be a option for you. Sustain is damage and survivalbility in PvP

    5x skoria might be a bit much : P

    If you are backbarring Bloodthorn, you'd likely be better off with lich or warlock there.

    Eh. Gor magplar you dont need to run any damage set. I like light armor tanky sets, even run two of them for good measure. Passive mitigation on a templar means more time jabbing downrange, more sustain means more time jabbing downrange. I find 1800 regen or more unbuffed, 2k spell damage, 30k magick plenty to get things killed good'n'dead. Atleast as long as youre wearing skoria. The second you take it off is the second you may as well respec your CP to healing and go full heals.

    Wizards riposte, transmutation are amazing sets for solo 1v1, solo 1vX and any form of group play. This allows you to bring quite a bit of tank to your team passively without you having to use a skill. It also allows your healer to run other amazing group sets like spell power cure while the group is still getting the reduction from youre sets.

    My favorite composition running these sets is a templar healtank, you with the sets, and a really heavy hitting mag or stam spec with a lot of heavy AOE.

    With this setup yoy should also consider lightning staff. It gives you light attacks that mean somthing, emergency heavy attacks that could give you just one more needed honor the dead, ranged light attack weaving with vamps bane when range is needed, a great stun, an AWESOME aoe ulti. And the damage loss from using it on you abilities is accually REALLY tiny. Much less than you would think. And over all damage is higher due to the light attacks and range.

    Evidently you haven't faced this sort of build...

    He can heal/shield himself from nearly any individual players assault for a prolonged period of time (to get you out of power) while still maintaining a sizable quantity of resources to go on the offensive with...

    And remember, with 3k Spell Power and a Magicka pool that large, his attacks land with the force of a thermonuclear warhead; odds are, he will melt you when he begins to counterattack...

    He said before, that he want to play dual wield and 1h+s... so for him is a great combination.

    Can confirm, i play this setup in cyro with 5 heavy/2 light and in BGs with 5 light/2 heavy and it works great (together with magicka/HP/magreg-food).
    ~37k Magicka
    ~22k HP
    ~14k Stamina
    2k...2.5k Magicka reg
    1k...1.5k Stamreg (reg depending on buffs obviously and if heavy or light)
    2.5k...3k spelldmg

    Thank you guys for the feedback, I have time to grind sets like amberplasm because I still have about 28 levels to grind on my templar lol, But definitely will use a lot of these ideas when I am actually building it, thanks everyone!


    Also, for sets like Wizard Riposte and Warrior's Fury do they actually proc enough even with it having to be crit damage?

    A experienced PvPler as opponent will just bring you out of ressources and kill you very fast and easy, when you just want to play this burstgamestyle. Its massive burst, but every CC counter you, because you dont have sustain to fight long...

    A question: Do you play 5 parts heavy or 2 heavy 5 light armor?

    I see you use battlecage. So do you play with 5 piece heavy or 5 piece light armor?
    You will miss maybe a bit spelldamage from using light armor in fight, but get much penetration, crit and so damage. For burstbuilds its maybe better ;)

    5 rattle cage. (Heavy set)
    1 chest piece, 3 rings, 1 sword
    5 clever alchemist. (Crafted set)
    4 light pieces, 1 sword
    2 kena.
    Shoulder and helmet

    I potion up then stun with my focused charge. Light attack, light attack. Now my spell damage is around 6200. I have options after that. Generally soul assault is a safe play.
