Returning player, after a levelling build

Mauness · December 2015

Hi folks,

I've just returned after 6-8 month break. I've got a level 26 Templar and looks like all my skills/points have been refunded. So im after a levelling build if possible, I use to be a stamina/2h build wearing medium armour, is this still viable?

Thanks
Maunie

It is better to go for magicka Templar, Viable options for stamina would be DK or NB.

Who started this stigma?

@Mauness Stamina Templar is fine. In terms of DPS numbers, they're a bit on the low end, but that doesn't mean they're not viable. Magicka will pull slightly ahead in DPS compared to Stamina (that's actually mostly true for most classes). They play mostly the same, except you'll be using Radiant Oppression for an execute over the 2H "Executioner" skill.

When I was still running stamina (switched to magicka due to a shortage of healers in the guild), I was successfully running a DW/Bow combo that was working nicely in PvE. In PvP, 2H/Bow (sometimes 2H/DW).

Being at Level 26, you've only just started to venture into the game and what the Templar can do. If you were enjoying it then, I'd recommend sticking with it. When I first started playing ESO, I rolled a stamina DK. Started out "fun" until I realized you were mostly using weapon skills. It got boring fast and felt a little lack luster for the class. Ever since I switched to a Templar, the game has been that much better for me.

You dont really need a build to level, as at least 2-3 skill slots should be dedicate to skills you are working on ranking up and morphing and not really using. Just go magicka templar and spam sweeps... You win! Sad but true.
