Do you guys feel like sustain is worse all of a sudden? Not just for magplar but for everything

So I'm putting together an updated build with Bright-Throat/Shackle/Bloodspawn and a focus on beams. Naturally, I'm considering using a fire destro staff, but with the new 25% aoe damage resist for medium armor etc., I feel like my sweeps are seriously going to suffer.

Should I consider lightning staff or DW? What's everyone here leaning towards since the patch?

You need to run an infused destro and reach/woe due to the "fix" to weapon skills dot components procing them now.

I should have mentioned, this is for a melee build. I have no plans to use destro skills. I might do Crescent instead of Beam if I go with lightning staff. Maybe add barrage.

There is no reason you can't use a destro on a melee build, it provides many more options as well. If youre using toppling charge i feel bad for you son, i got 99 problems but minimum range limitations, bugged damage on distanced/ moving targets, gap closer into load screen, stuck in animation aint 1. Use reach.

just use ice staff on melee . blockade of frost is great for melee range.

Everyone dog piles magplars in pvp anyways but destro light attacks and ele drain are awesome.

That's a fair point, and worth considering. Same with @Minno with his trusty frost staff, as always.

Neither really answer my original question though. Which staff (fire/lightning) would provide better damage for a melee magplar? Half my skills are AoE, and half are direct damage.

Fire is better because its light attacks are stronger. (Ice light attacks are also pretty strong.) That outweighs the 8% damage boost on Sweeps etc.

Yea, he said he didn't want to use any atro skills so i kinda just left it opened.

If yall wanna see synergy, total dark, ice reach, sweeps work very very well together.

Definitely. And I always wonder if the reason I get focused so much is because they know even in a small group I'm throwing out support heals/resto ults or if it's because I have 5 stars, but magplar life is always being dog piled as you said.

Also in your case they may recognize you as a skilled 1vXer/small scaler from your at name so you have that working against you too.

predator/prey thinking. Why attack a strong enemy when you can target the slow sick looking templar on the side/back lol.

I used to say the same, till DK wings became slottable. Nothing worse than watching your crit buff and immobilze spell hit you lol.

So I use crit pots and frost blockade with force pulse/valkyn. Ice staff + empowering sweeps/life giver does give you a bit of survivability freeing your other sets for extra defense/dmg/sustain.

Depends on what skills you use the most and get kills with. Honestly, if you aren't killing players left and right with the abilities that specific staff buffs up, might as well get the universal 36% block cost/20% blocking mitigation with extra armor resists and potential to proc minor maim and immobilize effects from frost staff.

If you are heavy on the jabs/aoe dmg, use lighting with reach.

Yeah I am thinking about switching to melee build with lighting on front, frost on back (I am huge fan of frost staff too). I would keep Vamp's Bane, Purifying and Jesus beam but bring in more Aedric spear skills.

How do you guys feel about new blazing spear and crescent. Tried them both out but not sure if they are worth the slot. Crescent dot seems like it hits incredibly hard but it not having an up front stun makes me not really think it will be worth it in the long run.

blazing spear, I always considered a PVE skill. Sounds great when your target is a PVE noob standing around you, but once you face against a speedy stamden or mobile nightblade, you always regret putting points into it.

Crescent needs you to be close by. At least it frees up your bar to drop jabs and still gives you access to a small cost dmg ultimate.

I love both of those skills in bgs and when being a tower monkey. Open field is a different story, especially vs magicka non melee builds.

If you're not switching your skills up to aid your goal, you're gonna have a bad time imo. Templars don't have a kit that is overall good against everything like a few other classes.

@Minno i only ever front bar resto IF I use it. My back bar is always snb or ice staff.

I haven't had a lot of opportunity to see how it works but I've re-morphed Total Dark to Unstable Core as my CC in my ranged build which is a couple dozen pages back by now (lol).

Armor: 5 Torug's Pact, 2 Valkyn Skoria (CP) or 1 Chudan + 1 Pirate Skelly (no CP), 5-1-1 Light
Jewelry: 3 Spinner's, 2 swift + 1 arcane, 1 recovery + 2 damage glyphs
Spinner's Flame staff, infused, offensive bar, flame enchant
Willpower Resto staff, infused, defensive bar, absorb magicka enchant (can use weapon/spell damage instead)

offensive bar skills: Crushing Shock, Ele Drain, Reflective Light, Purifying Light, Unstable Core, Shooting Star
defensive bar skills: Elusive Mist, Extended Ritual, Degeneration, Honor the Dead, Channeled Focus, Light's Champion

The goal is to just put a lot of pressure on opponents via the flame enchant on front bar consistently proc-ing because of Torug's + Infused. Between that and the other skills I can get weaker opponents down surprisingly quickly and put better opponents on the defensive. I tend to just use the Light's champion so I can go offensive while it ticks, I typically don't cast shooting star at all but it does give me the mage guild passives on both bars with degen on the other. I used to have Jesus beam slotted but I never felt comfortable mixing it up and halting the light attack rotation (which stops my enchants from hitting). I could slot Elemental Weapon instead of Crushing shock but I do love that interrupt CS gives.
.

I use:
Armor: 5 bright-throat/shackle, 2 Valkyn Skoria (CP) or 2 Pirate Skelly (no CP), 5-1-1 Light
Jewelry: 3 trans, 1 swift + 2 arcane, 3 damage glyphs
Willpower Ice staff, Sharp offensive bar, Double dot poison or flex.
Trans Resto staff, infused, defensive bar, SD enchant.

offensive bar skills: force pulse, Ele Drain, Unstable Core/total dark, degeneration, blockade of frost, empowering sweeps.
defensive bar skills: Elusive Mist, Extended Ritual, purfying light, Honor the Dead, restoring Focus, Life Giver.

People don't actually think that do they? I've seen very few good healers in this game open world (in the last patch or two) and the ones I've seen that I think are great aren't magplars.

Magplars are the best at giving others purify synergy but the best at healing? Eh...
If you think that you haven't seen Geronimoose. That guy is insane. Too bad he only plays ep.

Also, I think they changed the tooltips for channeling/restoring focus. No longer every 0.5 seconds but now every second.

This might make your sustain feel slower. Definitely another stealth change they like to add without patch notes lol

Mrsinister2

So far I'm diggin crescent sweep it still misses a bit but the damage is good and it's so cheap it's up all the time.

TheDoomsdayMonster

To those Magplars that are on PC, how big a difference has Major Evasion made to the damage Puncturing Sweeps does?

Doesn't change anything. Now you get 240 resources every second instead of 120 every half second.

Checkmath

For those considering using crescent sweep, I recommend using it like stamplars used it before:
Puryfying light, then two times jabs, shock clench into the crescent sweep. It is a very bursty combo and works very well in close combat. Crowdy places are a really good spot to try it out. Blazing spear also is quite a viable option with the increased damage, chance to proc burning light and also provides minor protection. Surely I recommend using it again in crowded places for area denial and covering the crowded place with your aoe. Also throwing it into enemy masses does quite some damage even as spammable.

Looks fine on paper, till you want to use that ability to offset defensive stamina costs. half-second coming in feels more full.

Either way it isnt terrible, except if you want templar to continue to retain some uniqueness, and regen every half-second (while boring) was only available to the templar.

TheDoomsdayMonster

Meh...

Drop Rune/Channeled Focus...

Equip Mighty Chudan x2...

Replace Rune/Channeled Focus with Rapid Regen and make sure your Spell Crit is over 50% (makes your HoT's God-like)...

Given what the current Meta is bringing to the table, stacking HoT's (Ritual should be your other HoT) is golden and essential...


You can thank me later...
