Suggestion: Swap Radiant Destruction with Nova.

A Simple suggestion (i think): make Radiant Destruction an Ultimate Skill, and turn Nova into a normal skill.

From a Utility point of view you gain a lot more from Nova compared to Radiant Destruction. Both the damage for offense, as well as the Damage reduction for support (and the Synergy for group play) are fairly useful, more so than the damage from Radiant Destruction.
Both the basic skill as well as the Solar Prison Morph could cost magicka, while the Solar Disturbance morph could become a Stamina version.

For the damage and cost ratio, they could make it cost a lot and keep the damage as it is (Should be around 1.5-2X the current Radiant Destruction cost with the current damage), or reduce the damage a bit.

Making Radiant Destruction an Ultimate would make it more of an actual finisher and less of a "keep-spamming-it-because-the-enemy-might-drop-below-a-certain-percentage-of-health" skill.
Increasing the damage a bit shouldn't be a problem, as you can no longer spam it as an ultimate.
Damage equal to Soul Assault (because of the duration), together with the execute could be an option, or DECREASE the damage quite a bit (about half it is now), but make the execute phase deal significantly more damage (up towards 900% bonus damage).

Second option would set Radiant apart from Soul Assault a bit more.

    Nah, more a general one.
    Never been much of a PvP guy. When i do enter Cyrodiil i prefer supporting people over melting faces and bashing skulls in.
    Using Nova (Damage reduction) and Practiced incarnation at the same time would be an awesome combo, or Nova and Remembrance for a 50% damage reduction.

    Wait, so you are saying the more useful of the two skills should NOT be the Ultimate?

    ;psyduck;

    And there's already a Jesus Beam ultimate in the Soul skill line.

    Nova as a spammable skill? Lol, Sign me up for that one.

    Right? I'd take a permanent 30% dmg reduction AOE with decent damage over an execute any day.

    I'd even take it over Radiant if it didn't have damage, or if you couldn't aim it (always landed on top of you).
    Flashes (the skill which got replaced by Radiant) was a defensive skill to begin with.

    I think Nova is a bit strong for a spammable skill. Specifically the damage reduction part, and the synergy is like 10k damage on a good sp power build + 5 second AoE stun.

    Instead I would change Radiant Glory (since no one uses it anyway) to be the Templar AoE cc, like what Talons is for DK's. Templars really need some AoE cc.

    what templars need is a aoe cc, like flashes used to be. Maybe they can replace eclipse as it is totally broken, put it on self to be an aoe cc.

    Btw RO is good as it is in PTS (less dps than in live), and nova as a spammable ability should be way too op : dot+mitigate+snare ! Wow this would be a Nova Fest :smile:
