The options just confirm people want a change. Without separate options for buff and nerf, the results can't make any sense at all. It may as well be another vote for your class poll, we dont get many of them.

I play a Templar and although I don't have a problem with this class, especially that I'm able to be a tank, dd and healer at the same time - I still think Templar's magic ( Dawn's Wrath ) is too weak when compared to sorcerer. I know there should be a gap, but I think it's too big.

Above reasons are good enough.

First fix the stam/mag and LA vs HA and MA issues
After that fiddle with class balance, otherwise your just doin double work

Forget the generelazing blabla about balance & games and back and forth. There's no neutral way of auto-adjustment of a game.
The games success will highly depend up on a developer who is able to identify inbalances: For TESO that is: Vampirism, Sorcerers spamming crystal shard, etc., the list is long!

IF you play a templar you will never understand, what is hitting you every 2/3 seconds with 1200 dmg, even if you have magic armor at hard cap.. they keep hitting you for 1200 dmg with the same spell combination, all the time, every few seconds.,

That wouldn't be a problem, if TEMPLARs could hit you for -let's say- 1000 dmg, or 900, or 800 dmg, OR 700 dmg every few seconds.. (-->better balanced feeling). But we are SO far away and this gap is huge...! Either we spam a 300 dmg weapon attack (if resto healing) or we really have bigger issues finding ANY SPELL other 500 base damage (exept the channeled "Puncturing blabla"..) It is a pain..

Then we got the TEMPLAR FANBOYS.. Of course, they'll argue that we got utility, we can heal, etc.etc., blabla. Sorry, this is invalid. THIS game has only 4 classes! Not 8, not 16, etc.. WHERE and WHY is balancing such an issue? I cannot understand, I will not understand, cause: ONLY 4 CLASSES!

Never, every class and race has it's unique and some similar skills and passives, templars also needs to be nerfed then as they spam those self heal spells all the time, nonono better nerf resto stuff...\
People common...dk got nerfed alot

Funny you bring the healing class up when talking about healing. Dragon knights are not healers therefore shouldnt heal half their health at instant speed. As it is not dk are an amalgum of all desireable traits from the other classes with few or none of the drawbacks.

\
\
There are 4 classes... 4\
\
One heals vastly better than the DK.\
\
Two do not.\

Why don't those two do so? They have alternative survival mechanics. Sorcerers are unmatched in mobility. Night blades can simply become untargetable. In both instances they have the opportunity to reduce incoming direct damage to a zero value. The Dragonknight is designed not to. They have to stand there and take whatever comes at them just like the Templar. The difference is Dragonknights suck it up and spit it right back, it's called counters, and they have boat loads of them. It's all reactive to a condition. Templar does not have this feature, it just out heals and removes the effects of things coming at it, granted at a very steep cost in resources (unless light armor magicka specs are involved). \
\
The Dragonknight is the soldier type class. The Nightblade is the special forces type class. The Sorcerer is the artillery type class. The Templar is the support type class. You mess with that dynamic when you remove the way these classes are designed to behave.\
\
Continue to Nerf class skills, and all of the above will go away and what will remain is nothing but dress wearing stick wigglers as anything less will be rendered unpayably sub optimal...

I believe what he said in a previous thread is right on.

Templar dps, heavy armor and all non-staff weapons need buffs... No explanation needed really...

Heavy Armor absolutely, the other two, lol

nb need buff, sorcs and dks need nurf, templars are about right, also armor needs to be looked into...
