Went out and got a bunch of fun fights yesterday, was very enjoyable and I hope everyone likes what they see. Constructive criticism always welcomed, and I would love to know what everyone thinks about it!
Other than that, enjoy the video

Great video! very entertaining

I wonder how this build would go against ZERGBAD, Sunshine, Plesa, Shadowstep, Sypher Ali or Kerviz tho

All of those guys run gank builds(Sypher doesn't always) so I doubt they would beat german. Not trying to disrespect any of them, but with a gank build they wouldn't kill german.

Poxheart · June 2015

It takes 2+ gank builds hitting at the same time to burst through a shield stacking sorcerer.

This is exactly the point. No one travel in Cyrodiil stacking shields 100% of the time. Those guys will ONLY attack you if you don't have any shield up and when they do, you have 1sec~ or so of respond time, assuming that you have at least 20k of physical resistances to mitigate the first hit, to cc break + dodge roll + heal/shield yourself. The reason why I doubt a sorc using his build would stand any chance. He probably has not more than 10k physical resistances and would almost get instagibbed in one opening.

Well then you either don't get many kills, or your definition of "rekt" is a little askew.
Reminds me of that one time I killed you and you whispered me saying I was a hacker after... oh wait that happens every time I kill you.

If you are referring to the one time you killed me when I was afk behind a tree and I came back to whispers from you telling me how bad I was for dying while I was afk, then yes, you did "rek" me.

@frozywozy
The only times I ever get ganked is when I am typing, my reaction time is pretty fast when I am able to press abilities.

It is as blab said, gankers are not so much a threat as an annoyance. If they attempt to do the snipe thing, I dodge roll any snipes I hear anyway and reposition to reacquire targets.
A 1v1 would be exactly what a ganker doesn't want from me, seeing as they are designed to catch players off balance and do enough damage during the time they are not on their guard.

Just from idly recording the past 4 or so days, I have gotten countless clips of gankers trying to gank me off my horse and then either running away or dying to me. The same thing happens everytime because I stay on my resto bar, so all it takes is hardened ward -> dodge roll. From there, if they still try ganking when I am off my horse, then it ends badly for them. Usually it is just a minor annoyance and I have to wait until I leave combat to re-mount.

I have lots of points into bastion. Lots of points.

I have said it numerous times before, maybe I should just put it in my signature, but I will gladly take anyone on in a duel scenario. Just whisper me @Exequies - I have sorcerers on all factions, so there will be no issue with setting up a fight.

Not this one.

Germ's a good player. I'd have a rough time as a pure burst build if it was a I see him, he see's me situation. I haven't seen a bubble I couldn't pop in a surprise situation though

Makkir · June 2015

I never realized your in game toon was Arcane.

I have considered picking up Streak again over BoL...mainly because Crystal Frags is pretty useless against good players with situational awareness, and because break free sometimes just doesn't work for me the Streak would give me a few seconds to recuperate.

Do you ever consider grabbing BoL? My main concern was the CC immunity since I also actively use Defensive Run and Daedric Mines.

Makkir · June 2015

Hey one more question if you don't mind. I don't see Lightning Form or any of it's variants being used yet it looks like you have the purple/lightning ambiance about your character...or are my eyes really getting that bad?

You and Ez kinda look like you dress the same...

Ezareth · June 2015

Impressive video man.

It never ceases to amaze me when I see Sorcs using overload that they still have no idea what tab target is haha.

I think BoL at least in that video would have saved you a ton of stam and damage by not having to break free from crystal frags to your back every 8 seconds or so. Still, hard to say if the extra burst/cc of streak didn't win some of those fights as well.

And man the Jesus beam was out in force in that vid. Is that all templar know how to cast any more?

im quite fond of using a few dark flares before, also with a timed Spear shard or followed by heavy+crushing its pretty good. you only Beam when you get them below 50% if you are smart... Dark Flare spam is pretty good, kind of like a ranged and slightly slower Wrecking blow with a good build. its pretty easy to deal 14k with a Dark Flare back to back cast, and yes i know you can do better with a fragments proc the key that you can do it back to back is what makes it nice, more over you can perfectly beam right after you lauch for a high chance of beaming while they are low on HP... pointless vs dodgy stam builds but ok vs shield stackers that forgot the LA shield. Very nice vs anything reliant on healing (like other templars ironically)

Poke poke is worthless in most situations because of root (cant aim it while rooted) so thats why that is rarely used, would be good otherwise.

anyways... most templars focus on healing, and have beam slotted as their only DPS option... its a crippling weakness of most magicka temps.

The main reason I use streak over BOL is for the CC that goes through dodge roll, which is a blessing for a class with such limited CC abilities. Whenever I CC a dodge roller mid-dodge, I am almost always able to land a hit or two on them, which can be combined with a curse already primed on them and a lot of times be just what I need to kill them.

I also just prefer streak as a general precedent, as I have been using it since I first morphed bolt escape many many patches ago.

I'm not sure on this one, my best guess is you see my dwemer sphere giving me magicka back, but other than that I don't know.

I have found it to be helpful as to not accidentally hit guards when shooting people. But the tab targeting doesn't seem to work as smoothly here as it did in other games, at least for me. I just picked up a Razor Hex and I considered rebinding it to one of the mouse buttons.

I have always been curious to see how others have their keybinds set up and their mouse/keyboard choices, as there may be something easier that I have overlooked. No one ever includes info like that in their youtube videos/build posts.

I play on a standard laptop keyboard and a regular $5 mouse I bought to go with it when I bought this laptop
