Is Templar ever going to get full damage from Strikes

Tsukiino

With Arcanist's beam doing full damage to all enemies, why does Templar still have reduced damage to the targets that isn't the main one?

It just doesn't make sense lol

Because one is a beam of light that shoots in a straight line and the other is a spear with a shorter range that's being stabbed in a cone?

They aren't remotely the same.

What you should be comparing Fatecarver to is Radiant Destruction. They should both be multi target with an option for a Radiant Destruction morph to be single target with the ridiculous execute.

They are both AoE
They are Both Channels
They both require aiming
They both have roughly the same base damage per hit

So yeah, why dosn't jabs do full damage to all targets hit?
(if for no other reason than to make up for its majorly lacking damage)

also why does jabs, a melee skill only do as much base damage as a 0 cruz beam...which is a ranged skill?

AoE execute beam? are you mad? you know you can get over 6 figures a tick with that thing, right?

I think devs just don't like Templars in PvE anymore

I said that it should be a morph that does single target damage.

Base form AoE with reduced damage to match Fatecarver base, one morph to current form with damage scaling and single target execute, one morph that remains AoE with reduced damage and heals as one of the current morphs does.
