Sick of Templars

Mancombe_Nosehair · January 19

I don't even use jabs or crescent on my Templar main, but if this incessant whining continues, I just might.

At the end if the day, even if they do NERF Templars, another class will be overpowered, and you lot will be whining about that instead.

Be careful what you wish for, because, sooner or later, the NERF hammer will be coming for you.

This is getting ridiculous, every day at least 5 new nerf threads appear.

But lately, warden, templar and even necromancer nerf threads appeared and are getting very common. Seriously, what experienced player would call for nerf of a class that has the most non-working and impractical skills in whole game?

Nerf the nerfcallers! Shame on all of these nabs.

I think some game forums actually have rules against Nerf threads because of this. I think it would be wise If they would adopt a policy against such threads like this it could help. Because yeah nerf this nerf that isn't very informative and just ends up either hurting a class or getting threads like this closed. It would help clean up the forums a bit if the people knew that it wasn't tolerated. Just my opinion.
If this was a thread on a cryptic game forums. I can imagine it being. Nerf Thread/Closed. That is what they would do I believe over there.
I do think such a policy could be put into place because its just problematic. Sto Forums have a commonly brought up topics or frequently closed threads policy that bars certain topics if devs have answered them over and over again. Something like that here could maybe help.

I hope they dont do something like that as ZOS would close down every thread about fixing the game and leave the nerf threads for us to have somewhere to rage

Well threads about fixing the game if done in a constructive manner are fine. Its just these rage threads made because someone couldn't handle an ability in a pvp setting that needs to be not allowed because one it either goes down into flaming or people will start to argue about it and that goes no where and can lead to flaming. This forums does a good job at being more open and allowing people to talk and converse but there does need to be limits and well if there are way to many nerf this or nerf that rage because I got killed by someone in pvp by an ability that is annoying to me. Well that is just tough luck accept the death and keep on going. We do have respawns for a reason. This isn't real life a in game death won't kill you. I doubt they will take up the suggestion but I'm suggesting it because well its really by now just a meme. Nerf threads memes and its just gotten out of hand I think on the forums here.

I get the nerf threads are getting more and more but if we ask for them to close down threads they fell they have dealt with to much tho they really haven't just added an bandaid that didn't stick on the issue then this game would never see any true fixes as it takes 5 to 10 trys to find the glue

Templars are not Op templars are good. Why templars seem overpowered is because it relies on Blitzkrieg type of tactic and that overwhelms people. Sadly ZOS took away some stuns that could helped stop a charging templar if encountered face to face even though most of them attack distracted opponents. The Templars jabs are annoying but they are no different or as powerful or devastating as somebody who Gives you the Wrecking blow,LA,Wrecking Blow, LA, at least the jabs can be seen and there is a reason why people use templars usually attack moving around the enemy.

ZoS should't take anything else away from Class and weapon skills but realize they damaged other classes they moment they did.

jm42 · January 19

only stupid ppl ask for nerfs, normal way to deal with some overpowered stuff is to up other classes/skills
I don't play much PVP, I just want other heals not to be such a garbage if to compare with templar heal

people will say it's an l2p issue but i agree templars have it easier than other classes atm

FierceSam · January 19

More whiney PvP garbage...

Don’t like class X, Y or Z? Did they spank you when you weren’t looking?

Adapt. Change your build. Develop a new strategy or rotation. Play the f-ing game. That’s the whole point.

Stop baying for nerfs

Bards are so overpowered it's absolutely rediculous trash. I'm not even going to get into all the ways they are overpowered. Everything in their stupid kit is overpowered. The complete lack of attention to elephant in thw room in this game is mind numbing.

The players who use Bards are trash and if you come on here saying "you don't run and yet are defending them without bias", you are a liar and you absolutely run one and you are a no talent scrub who doesn't want your square button to win easy mode trash build getting tuned when it should be drastically tuned.

Every cheese ball in pvp is running Bard and nothing has changed. I'm sick of seeing it. Elite players have to beat on them and die a dozen times before they finally run out of resources and can't heal automatically and love forever.

Bards are trash. If you run a bard, you are trash. If zenimax doesn't get off their lazy rear ends and do something then their ability to run this game is trash. And if things don't change soon, alot more players are going to throw this game in the trash. 99% of the content creators have already quit because they are sick of it. The content creators that still have channels with any ESO content at all are only popping in from time to time in order to keep a few subs hanging on for their checks. How much more rediculously lame could things?

Did I mention, that Bards are trash??

Do your frigging job Zenimax!!!!!!

Hey now!! Don't be trash talkin' my bards you!

Keylun · January 19

My main is/was a stamina warden. I finally got my Templar to my CP level and followed Alcasts PvP build.

I’ve played every single class and no class is as fun as stamina Templar because of its move kit. I still get killed by other classes and have weakpoints. But a nerf wouldn’t help anything, they need to make MOST of the classes equally strong and/or have counters (won’t say which class is OP).

However, I understand that some skills shouldn’t need to be so packed. In reality, it’s not the Templar that’s OP, it’s actually the sets like fury then just synergies extremely well with the Templar kit that makes them perform incredibly.

Magplar is a completely different story

ok so real talk here, how do i block a templar spamming me with jabs

with major resolve, minor protection, vigor and holding block on a SnB bar, it never feels like enough

Well it depends on your class, each have some sort of option to counter the melee templar abilities. Keep in mind I have NO idea what class you are. I assume you are stamina cause you said vigor. Also just standing still and trying to block all the damage probably isn't the choice to go with so here we go:

Sorc: Streak thru them, Encase, Daedric Mines, Also using the morph of Rune Prison that is cast on yourself and stuns

Warden: Winter's Revenge, Arctic Blast, Could also use heal that pulls you to friendly players to get away

NB: Fear, Shade, Using ambush to gap close to another enemy player

DK: Fossilze, Talons, Chains to chain yourself to an enemy (if you have that morph), Ash Cloud

Necro: Fear, Grasp, Goliath Ult, Avid Boneyard (if you have harmony jewelry)

Templar: Javelin, Gap closer, purify that damages

Could also use FG fear, 2H gap closer (see ambush), 1H gap closer, dodge away, use a vanish potion, 1H bash ability, Magnum Shot knockback, the ever annoying but useful Arrow Spray. If you are close enough to a friendly keep or resource you could also try to get to those and use those NPC's to your advantage... might also get noticed by your group or alliance.

Original post is so bad that it's hilarious

But it has very cute detail:

Elite players have to beat on them and die a dozen times before they finally run out of resources and can't heal automatically and love forever.

"and love forever"

It is a L2P issue, I have mained a Templar since beta, you have no idea how bad it was and what easy mod actually looked liked. Hint Templar was never the easy mode class.

Now the Templar is actually seeing some parity with other classes and people who were used to face-rolling a Templar are asking for nerfs. Really sad actually.

Neoealth · January 19

Play a sorc in PVP, NERF SORC NERF SORC x 100000

Switch to templar for PVP, NERF TEMPLAR NERF TEMPLAR

I'm sure whatever class I decide to play it means cursing that class.

ZonasArch · January 19

Does anyone else feel kinda sorry for the OP? Not because if the whole l2p thing, but because they put themselves out there so openly and turned out to look so silly and whiny?

I hope it isn't just me. I went from "wtf" to "looool" to "oh no, they need help..."

rexagamemnon · January 19

no, templars are the most nerfed class and if anything need multiple major buffs

It's not his first post on the subject, nor of that same rage-filled tone.
Apparently, he's nearly invincible in PvP, except when he comes up against a Templar.
Templars make him mad. He's a very angry fellow.

LukosCreyden · January 19

I play Templar because I like Templar. I played them when they were very much underperforming and I still play them now. If that makes me trash, then I am happy to be so!

You shouldn't let such things get you so down. If it is such a problem for you, I recommend making an anti-templar build; just angle everything towards screwing with Templars, I think that would cheer you up!

red_emu · January 19

My Templar is just about ok. He is stamina and he goes jab, jab, jab.

If you want to share your magica build, I will try it and see if I can be stupidly OP trash.

Thank you in advance

As a Sorc main, let me state this clearly and concisely: Bad players ask for nerfs.

The Nerf train is full of them. Agree with you 100%.

If he's that afraid of Templars, maybe OP just needs a good big dose of learntoplayol.

I like to meet these "I'm really good except against this class/build" people. I suck at PvP and it's funny to see these people having trouble fighting even me.l, after talking themselves up so much.

rez0055 · January 19

Obviously you need to learn to play your class. I have zero problems in fighting against Templar’s. I main a Magdk. One of the , if not the hardest class to master in pvp. Yet I’m able to beat some of the better pvp players, or we just tie and give up. How?
I did research , I listened to the most knowledged players who give pvp tips, builds etc and they teach you how to play. Now I’m able to easily 1vx and I’m happy I learned so much. this post is trash because you fail to make constructive arguments. Not that all players who main Templar’s are trash, they have either a better setup, or are in general a better player than you. You can’t accept that, so you make a rant post about it. Mate, I died numerous times to other players and I felt bad anout it too sometimes. But you gotta learn to get back up your feet and find a way to get better and stronger. I did it so you can too. Good luck.

Yeah, templar is disgustingly OP atm, snare, protect, heal ON EVERYTHNG, what other class gets an AOE DOT ability that benefits from Onslaught? No one. Anyone else get healing and protection baked into everything? No. Templar is the apex of OP, and needs a serious nerf. Even worse you have entire templar groups roamingcyro and BGs lately, its infuriating to say the least.
