    LOL while I think it should be dodgeable (and so should lotus fan, concealed weapon), they should have fixed it first xD

    Wroble just had to make sure to nerf Templars first. xD

    He loves all these skills they are like his children.

    Apparently, Templar skills misbehave and are the problem child because the seem to draw his ire more frequently then others.

    maybe he want also test the role of abusive father? because the templar gets beatings every time. even when the other classes are exploiting thing :(

    Why? Rather then fix it, you Nerf it. This is just amazing I lol at you Zenimax.

    Toppling charge can also be reflected as a projectile.

    TY ZOS. And thanks for fixing that pesky Cleansing Ritual aka : the Templar last defensive skill. Templar was OP and this just gets us a little closer to not logging it.

    Who am I kidding I haven't actually played my Templar(s) in 2 months cause I ran out of potions. WTF does it really matter?

    Hey guys I can't make this work and now everyone can dodge roll from it. Go ahead and keep it... We will call it an update for "balance reason" as it does half the damage of lotus fan which can't be dodged.

    ZOS logic never disappoints <3
    I heard that jabs will no longer knockback the last target. WTF? That's been a fundamental part of jabs since day 0. And they're taking it away? ZOS must really want nobody to play a Templar after TG drops.

    It's BETTER without Knockback, stun is better. It's much better this way.

    What does that mean in terms of character actions and response? Does the Templar get stunned and hit for a lot of damage upon colliding with the target? Does the Templar bounce off the target like a rubber ball? Does the Templar just get stunned and take damage in the spot from which she tried to activate the Charge?

    I think the reflected charge will be much like a deer hitting windshield and then running off.

    Player A "WTH was that!?!"
    Player B "Another silly Templar"

    The below video is about what it would be like, however in the video the deer is okay, but don't watch if you're sensitive.

    Its exactly like if you got hit by someone else spell.

    Depends on the reflect. Eclipse you start the animation and then stop abruptly and are stuned with damage.

    RS and DP you hit the target and take the damage and stun.

    Its been awhile. I've not used the skill or pvped with my templars since early Dec, but that's how i remember it.

    ZOS logic never disappoints <3

    Except... the Healing Ritual buff was actually a nerf.

    To get back the 25% less healing we would have to cast another ability to get FHs buff, which was reduced to 25% from 30%. In the end, we lost 31% of our heal for a 25% reduction in cast time.

    Maths:
    Live - HR heals for 100. Under FH 130. Self heals for 173-ish. Using the self heal 173/1.7s cast time = 101 hp/sec.

    PTS - HR heals for 75. Under FH 90. Self heals for 121-ish. Using the self heal 121/1.5s = 80 hp/sec.

    OK sow I added the cast time to hp/sec and the loss is 20%, But that is still a nerf.

    Templars are not necessarily mad about the nerf itself, most of us don't slot that skill because it's so unreliable. It's just the continuous stream of nerfs while the skills themselves remain fundamentally broken. If this patch note included "removed the GCD and fixed the pathing problems" we'd be jumping up and down for joy and no one would care about this nerf.

    I don't know about anybody else, but I'm mad because they billed this as the Templar and DK love patch, and instead of romantic love, we got prison love.

    Honestly I kinda expected the nerfs, I've mained as a Templar since launch so this is nothing new to me.

    But for some dumb reason I also expected that they would actually fix the bugs. I'm mad because they actually spent developer time (and, as such, the money I pay for my sub) nerfing healing ritual of all things, and our gap closer is still ******* broken.
