We all know that non-healing Templars are the ZOS whipping boys. When the nerf darts come out, they play pin the nerf on Templar.

    I don't know what to pick...

    Eclipse sucks.

    Nova costs too much ulti.

    I don't see why they'd further nerf Puncturing Sweep/Jabs, since a simple immobilization by a smart enemy who also walks -through/in- you as you try to channel the jab at them, causing it to be very unreliable as you can't turn to face your enemy while they spam Talons on you, unless you keep breaking out of it, bla bla bla - and not to mention the fact that we can be CC'd while in mid-air; toppling-charging a target...

    They'll probably nerf our healing next. :disappointed:

    Eclipse sucks.
    Yeah, still waiting/hoping for this change I recommended in the old dev forums thread about fixing Templars...
    Reclassify Eclipse and its morphs as non-CC abilities that cannot be removed by Break Free. They could still be cleansed/purged. Increase the damage for Unstable Core by an extra 50%. Failing that, triple the damage done by the base ability and morphs when someone breaks out and gains CC immunity to make up for wasting magicka in order to give them instant CC immunity. Make them choose real damage or waiting it out.

    Eclipse will only be cast-able on NPCs

    Radiant Destruction now executes yourself

    Nova now increases damage done to you

    Puncturing jab is now a one shot but it has a .0001 x 500 meter rectangular range

    Sun shield gets scaled to magicka, but the size begins to decrease the as your magicka increases.

    Pfft! Biased poll as it does not include the (re) broken charge, which should be changed to keep you in a Groundhog Day style time loop, rendering your character uncontrollable for 60 seconds as your life flashes before your eyes, allowing you to reflect on all of the poor decisions you have made throughout the course of your life.

    Rename it existential toppling charge. Smoke a cigarette and pour a glass of cheap wine while you ponder it's meaning.

    In fairness to ZOS, I don't think science has enough data for even the likes of Stephen Hawking to properly code a black hole.

    What an arrogance. I've played Templar only since March 2014, I've developed my way to play Templar out of sheer necessity. Are you seriously thinking yet another completely unmotivated nerf to one of the core Templar skills has higher priority than fixing all the numerous bugs still plaguing the Templar skills? "How to play a templar"? Really? Do you think @Joy_Division is circle jerking in regards to that the "Blazing Spear was most certainly not doing more damage than intended" before this latest nerf to it?

    Sun Shield - Remove shield component. WAI.
    eclipse already got previously nerfed and is still somewhat useful , but pales in comparison to what it used to be, I dont see how it could get nerfed again (barring humor that is)

    radiant destruction is already bugged and doesnt work properly half the time

    nova already got nerfed and DOES cost way too much ulti to start off with, its only useful in PvE if you dont really need an ulti anyway.

    puncturing jabs just got nerfed

    Which leaves sun shield which actually still works decently, low cost, decent shield (very effective in PvE, somewhat useful in PvP) - so its definitly the one getting nerfed next. Probably going to end up only protecting vs magicka OR stam or will no longer protect at all, just burst at end to do dmg.

    And you have to do it before they actually die, you're expected to anticipate which enemies are close to death and pre cast it. As intended.

    Ok, there's already no shield component really. But that last silver of 3k Sun Shield in PvP needs to go.

    Also looking forward to next major patch. Unpurgable snare + heal debuff spam on templars without any mobility, broken gap closer, no working shield, cant avoid the siege rain. Will be fun. Sitting duck for life, perma snared and heal debuffed stuck in red circles with no tools to get the hell out. Because I doubt Purifying Ritual will do *** all.

    I don't mind the siege change so much if it affects only Purge, which is instant cast/requires no synergy to click. Would prefer it didn't affect Dark Cloak and Cleansing Ritual. The former is single target/caster only, the latter has synergy to activate.
