Hi all. I just got this game this week and it looks really fun to play.. i got a lv 40 magicka templar , followed deltia omega templar build.. and today just entered non veteran pvp area..and i can't understand how im so easy to kill and i deal nearly no dmg.. i got in all trees lv 42+ (templar skill tree/1h.sword/dualwield/destro staff) and i just followed deltia pvp build and still can't deal dmg.im wonder maybe is something i missed in this game. Even a lv 21 NB 2 hitted me...if some1 would like to share with me wtf is wrong im too noob or wtf xD. (im WoW player if it helps somehow i mean i got exp as mmorpg player). Also i got some seducers 5 pieces and torug's pact 5 pieces set.. Blue.

Sorry for my noob question :disappointed:

    Unfortunately I know nothing about Templars so I can't really help you on your build.

    However, what you need to bare in mind is how ESO works: in the sense that when a player reaches level 50 they go to Veteran Rank (VR) and start earning Champion Points (CPs). These can then be used to boost various stats (weapon/spell damage & crit, physical/spell resistance, mag/stam/health recovery etc), not only on that character but all other characters that player has. So whilst you were facing a level 21, he/she may well have a VR character with a lot of CPs which could mean that the level 21 actually had a better character sheet than you. If that's not the case, it could have just been you getting ganked (attacked from stealth unawares) which can be difficult to defend against if you weren't prepared for the eventuality and/or they simply have more experience in PvP than you.

    Good luck and keep at it. Learn your skills and the synergies between them and you'll be fine.

    Oh damn i didnt knew those infos xD.. i mean if that lv 21 had a vr ++ char with lot of CP's then it's applied to other chars also.. damn i also have a 32 NB stamina and same things happened im 2-3hit's by all ppls xD.Seems like pvp is not rlly for a first char user in non-veteran area as i tought.

    Oh no, don't get me wrong.. non-Vet PvP is great for a first character. That's where I started off and I loved it, I learnt a lot about PvP in there which benefitted me when I went to Vet PvP. Seriously, keep at it - you'll get better and it's all about practice.

    Just learn your skills and what complements each other, it's all about stacking buffs to maximise your output and/or defence. Maybe have a crowd control ability (e.g. Mass Hysteria on NB) on your bar so if you get jumped you have a few seconds to get your bearings and apply your buffs.

    ok ty alot :smile: the thing is is still unfair for me to pvp there vs guys who got highter char's and lot of cp's.
    ty for infos i rlly didn't knew that cp's apply to other char's u have also.

    I wouldn't imagine there'd be a lot of them tbh because if they wanna start a new character they'll likely be power-levelling to get it to Vet ASAP and if they wanna PvP they'd either be on their main or in a Vet server with friends.

    @mafiyo - couple of things to remember when entering Non-Vet pvp.....

    1) all are battle levelled to vr15
    2) Armour and weapons level relative to your character REALLY matters....
    3)Armour Sets that add to your stats are all levelled to VR16 Stats...

    My advice to you is as follows....

    Get some armour sets and weapons that are your level, make them blue or if you can even pink....

    Also remember that other players are not NPC's and are not going to hang around if you are hurting them...

    Good luck with the build....

    It's likely that he'll be levelling so fast that making blue or purple sets every level (as per your advice) will be too costly to be feasible. He'll be far better off either making them green and upgrading them as and when he gets the required mats or making one blue set now and then using that until he reaches Vet.

    Furthermore, there's like a ~2% improvement in stats for having gear at your level compared to the one previous. It's not that big of a deal.

    let me clarify what i meant with the armour..

    Get some sets made for the level you are now in blue and that will suffice till you are vr1.

    I normally replace my armour sets every 10 levels starting at lvl20 when i make my first set..

    Likely an issue of experience for the most part, no offense intended. It should get better after a while.
