Newbie - Restoring Light on a Stamina Templar?

mashugana · November 2016

Is the entire Restoring Light tree useless on a Stamina Templar? I I understand the mechanics correctly then it seems that if I put zero in Magika then everything in the Restoring Light line would be useless to me. Is that correct?

Or are the base abilities still useful, just not as useful as a full Magika Templar?

Or can I split my points evenly between Magika and Stamina and still survive normal PvE content in One Tamriel?

I am not looking to PvP or be uber - just want to survive and enjoy the PvE story and content.

Repentance which is the morph of restoring aura , which while slotted on that bar increases your stamina recovery and when you kills things you get back some health and stamina , channeled focus is another one worth thinking about as it will increase your spell and physical resistance by 5280

Some skills are utilities in that the underlying Attribute does not scale the effect, but instead provides a resource pool to cast it from.

The two mentioned above are examples of Utilities. The only difference between having 8K of magic and 32K of magic is how often you can cast the skill. There might be some increase in say Health returned with Repentance if you have more magic, but the underlying skill still does it's job effectively even with a lower resource pool.

And, you still want to focus your attributes into one or the other, especially if your going Stamina as you use up Stamina just getting around the battle. Use gear to spread around the Attributes if you need or want to.

Plus repentance doesn't cost anything to use so it's a win win

Thank you! That makes a lot of sense
