Templar, as @hammayolettuce stated, is in a good spot.
Templar is the most balanced class in the game right now. It excels at some things, but it also lacks some things. That's what a balanced class is.
The only changes I think should occur:
-Radiant Destruction shouldn't be dodgeable
-Purifying Light should be able to crit
-Explosive Charge should have a snare or something(Kinda weak atm)
-Fix bugs associated with Focused Charge
-Vampires Bane should be "Magic" damage not "Flame" damage
-Activating a Dawn's Wrath ability gives you 5% spell damage(Minor Sorcery). A different Templar passive gives 6% weapon damage(not a major/minor buff) without requiring anything slotted. Since Templar is seen as a weaker DPS class, a balanced change can be adding a 6% spell damage bonus to the weapon damage passive and changing the 5% spell damage from using a dawn's wrath ability to 5% overall damage
As you can see, these aren't OP, drastic changes. Most of them are minor tweaks to passives or abilities(much of which aren't working as intended).

Do not confuse good Templar's with them being in a good place, big difference.
Templars in general need very minor adjustments. Overall the class as a whole is very well balanced. Small things like the passive that gives minor sorcery should give the equivalent for weapon dmg. If anyone playing magicka templar is having issues with sustain, dps, survivabilty it is honestly an issue with their overall build. The real issue with templars is they fall victim to the same thing DKs do which is an effective mobility tool.Even then need for healing Templars in pvp is disappearing with everyone running around spamming rapid regen. I feel my Templar doesn't have much of a place in pvp right now
Do you even play this game? 1 BoL can heal as high as 13k .. how is rapid regen even an example of how templar heals arent needed haha .. I would pick 1 Templar healer over 8 people using rapid regen.
*
13k BOL, I'm assuming you mean without looking at the tool tip or crits because even if you go close to Templars Max SD it's around 10k but at that point you wouldn't be built for healing because you'd have little sustain. And if you decide to go with recovery it lowers your heal with bol, one of the thing's that makes bol good is it's a very quick heal.
And Templar's as a whole are in a rough spot, I refuse to believe they're underplayed simply because of the lack of mobility. We're not even meant to be mobile, we're meant to stand our ground though we don't have many skills to back that.
spot on.
Purifying ritual alone negates meteor, crystal frags, and host of single target spells that give a status effect. That skill +channeled focus add to your healing. You'll need 10 minimum CP into quick recovery, at least 10 into blessed if DPS to take advantage of our healing passives (if magicka.). Stam has its negatives! But penetration is a templars native bonus to stam with weapon dmg passive.
Issue is, we only have builds for NB and Sorc's. How they are built differ from templars and DKs akillwise and gearwise. So we shouldn't be looking at straight dmg/stat pool stack and pretend it works like it does for the other classes.

Not true. Negating meteor, curse, crystal frags and a few other skills using puryfing ritual sets you up for offensive moments. I'd say it's a strength not a disadvantage.

By no means am I saying it isn't vital or a weakness.. I'm just stipulating that templar is the only class that has an entire skills tree delegated to simply support which may in fact be why they are balanced as a class because they don't have a myriad of class skill cohesive synergy which garnishes the give and take and pros and cons of the class.

Most people are playing nbs and sorcs. Templars and dks are usually the longest bounties for me to complete and I play large scale pvp, not just small scale. And I play on console where we have a bigger player base, at least bigger than PC NA.

And if you decide to go with recovery it lowers your heal with bol, one of the thing's that makes bol good is it's a very quick heal.
And Templar's as a whole are in a rough spot, I refuse to believe they're underplayed simply because of the lack of mobility. We're not even meant to be mobile, we're meant to stand our ground though we don't have many skills to back that.
Templars are underplayed??? What game are you guys playing? Cyro is filled with groups running NBs and templars. All of them.Even then need for healing Templars in pvp is disappearing with everyone running around spamming rapid regen. I feel my Templar doesn't have much of a place in pvp right now
Rapid regen replacing templars??? Theyre disappearing? Serioulsy who are these people posting?
Most people are playing nbs and sorcs. Templars and dks are usually the longest bounties for me to complete and I play large scale pvp, not just small scale. And I play on console where we have a bigger player base, at least bigger than PC NA.
NB and sorc are the best for going out and soloing abroad. Groups are packed with templars, all of them.
Waite I know the real answer to this .......DK and templar have no escape mechanic thus they must roam in a small group or a group To be singled out from the herd can be insta (cheese) death.
On another note since the end of 2015 are there any templars still out there of note that make a sorc or Nb quake in there boots?

Do not confuse good Templar's with them being in a good place, big difference.
Templars in general need very minor adjustments. Overall the class as a whole is very well balanced. Small things like the passive that gives minor sorcery should give the equivalent for weapon dmg. If anyone playing magicka templar is having issues with sustain, dps, survivabilty it is honestly an issue with their overall build. The real issue with templars is they fall victim to the same thing DKs do which is an effective mobility tool.Even then need for healing Templars in pvp is disappearing with everyone running around spamming rapid regen. I feel my Templar doesn't have much of a place in pvp right now
Do you even play this game? 1 BoL can heal as high as 13k .. how is rapid regen even an example of how templar heals arent needed haha .. I would pick 1 Templar healer over 8 people using rapid regen.

13k BOL, I'm assuming you mean without looking at the tool tip or crits because even if you go close to Templars Max SD it's around 10k but at that point you wouldn't be built for healing because you'd have little sustain. And if you decide to go with recovery it lowers your heal with bol, one of the thing's that makes bol good is it's a very quick heal.

spot on.
Purifying ritual alone negates meteor, crystal frags, and host of single target spells that give a status effect. That skill +channeled focus add to your healing. You'll need 10 minimum CP into quick recovery, at least 10 into blessed if DPS to take advantage of our healing passives (if magicka.). Stam has its negatives! But penetration is a templars native bonus to stam with weapon dmg passive.
Issue is, we only have builds for NB and Sorc's. How they are built differ from templars and DKs akillwise and gearwise. So we shouldn't be looking at straight dmg/stat pool stack and pretend it works like it does for the other classes.
bottom line we suck.
my dark flare hits 12.4k but my main DPS source hits under 5k even with 330cp. my V1 sorc CF hits ford 5.3k
Battle leveling lets you hit harder at V1. Syphers V1 stamplar performs very well due to battle spirit.CatchMeTrolling wrote: »CatchMeTrolling wrote: »hammayolettuce wrote: »CatchMeTrolling wrote: »hammayolettuce wrote: »The only place Templars excel right now is group healing.

You just need 300. It's my understanding the current catch-up system allows you to reach 300 in no time.
Expect time to learn any of the classes and the proper counters. Also, the biggest lesson any of the above players will show you is the following:
-pick your fights. Fight on your terms not theirs.
You won't believe how many people miss that part

Which NB/DK/Sorc players can you name that are very good players without a large amount of CP?

I learn only two ways to combat those fights:
1) Radiant magelight. Stops some of their burst for you to get defense going or go on the offense.
2) run more health for a better Radiant ward shield and always expect a NB. And always fight on my healing circles.
I only die to NB that can ignore my CC, find a gap in my shields, or catch me on a mistake (most of my deaths anyway.)
Magicka sorc's are tougher in my opinion. But defensive posture/S+B help greatly.

You posed the question about Templars, so it's only fair to ask the same about the other three.
If you can't name any, then your point about needing CP to be successful on a Templar is irrelevant as all of the top players with any class have high/capped CP.
