Angelic looking wings on a god so you know... pretty much , if she can have wings why not a templar.

On a single statue and a lamp is Meridia portrayed with wings. Meridia is a deadric prince, and templars are not followers of Meridia.

Jokes on you old man, I'll follow Meridia's light 'til the day I pass! Dawnbreaker go BOOOOM

Personally, I don’t like the overdone effects of some class abilities and necro is especially cheesy IMHO with the weird tombstones, sprouting bones out of one’s back, and the ugly goliath transformation. I like that templars’ abilities are simpler, more elegant overall.

Shame templars ults are soo weak though, i use crescent sweep and feel like nothing has happened and the heal ultimate seems very boring, tbh templar should have had the AOE resurrect from day 1... templar has no good dps ult at all.

I mean sweep is really there just for extra damage and for the passive. A real templar will be killing things with jabs anyways, and stunning the crap out of them with toppling charge.

Last class I leveled was a magicka templar and remember thinking how the bright flashy golden light could be toned down quite a bit. I think the flair on all the classes could probably be toned down a bit too.

A mini tale from today I went on to clear the Root Sunder Ruins in Grathwood, some crazed Templar fought an Elite enemy. Twas a public dungeon with bunch of bestial adds. I am being honest.

One same exact skill Punctured skills spam 20 times+ while running mindlessly around the room. That's pretty much to sum it up. I cannot fathom such a play-style. Amusing. Just stands there up close jumping and pressing one skill until gets depleted of magicka.

Sorcerers spamming one skill as well or two with lighting AOE skills, anyway tis sad to witness. Everything perishes so fast ,noting feels a threat outside of certain dungeons or trials.

When one-two skills is enough to kill off anything except World boss landscape wise you know how alarming balance is.

Templars are literally the flashiest class, bc they attack using flashes of light...

Aesthetically speaking, their ults are awesome. You sweep everything with a spear made of Aedric light... You call fown a literal fragment of Magnus the sun onto Nirn... looks more like a light version of a black hole, given how debris orbits it... Lastly you pray to your Aedra and everyone is healed using holy light. It's awesome - aesthetically.

Thanks for the coverage of Meridia guys, you've convinced my Templar to worship her instead!

Also OP please stop baiting the forum, in one post you focus on aesthetics, and in another you talk about the combat usefulness of skills. I understand and share ypur frustration about how trash Templars have become, but let's stick to the original topic, which is the aesthetics of Templar skills.

An unhealthy chunk of their skills are pretty useless.. pretty sad the best skills they have is shards and JABZJABZJABZ

Yeah playing necro healing everything is fun to use and seem to work well but templar its like breath of life and shards and maybe 1 more for resistance then everything else is shared skills.

If you think thats Templar, oh boy... I main templar healer and breath of life is rarely used LOL shards, yes, for synergies, cleansing ritual and purifying light ring a bell? Dont go spreading misinformation, thanks very much. Learn how the class works and stop complaining.

Edit: Bad engrish

This sneering about lore is silly, as it is all based on writing and writing is based on real life.

There is no "lore," there is just what the developers are trying to put in their game. That they add or not add certain things is regardless of any in-game excuse for what is added.

Huh?

Writing is based on real life ?

Have we not heard of Fiction? Lots of writing is based solely on imagination and has nothing at all to do with real life.

You just gave me the best laugh of the week, barney! Actually, as a writer, I spend a lot of time in my imagination. But at the end of the day, I also have to make sense to people who are solidly in today's world. So that means I have to temper imagination with a bit of "what's it look like in this now?"

Not always easy to parse. And I do believe the devs are in the same fix.... and if that's a truth, well.... I feel very sorry for them.

Their skills all look almost the same on the hot bar but the look of the skill themselves are soo underwhelming compared to the other classes especially the newer 2 classes. It's just all gold blobs of light, Where's the Angel Wings? the Golder Armour? The Holy Fire and so on... the most unique thing we have is a Spear jab which lets me honest could have looked far better than it does, when we armour buff we should get holy armour on our char like the necro gets bone armour and the warden gets ice... templar doesn't half look like crap.

Lop this isn't jade dynasty or a Korean mmo.

Tell me please why is it someone from the west mentions angels from the west from lore and history and theme from the WEST you people scream korean MMO? did the Koreans write the bible etc? did Koreans invent Paladins? and so on? like wtf is going through your minds.

If angel means supernatural messengers of divine entities, and in TES we consider Aedra those entities, than the closest thing to an angel are actually dragons.

So if you want a class with "angel wings", I would suggest a change to Dragonknight. Mull on that.
