Focused Charge: Can we get a Stam morph?

It would mesh with my DW Templar builds incredibly well. And, I can’t truly for the life of me, think of why this skill, of all skills, does not have a Stam morph. Either morph would work well, and make sense.

I know the skill was bugged terribly for the majority of my playing time in this game, but I haven’t seen a single player use this skill since my most recent return (as of about 3 months now). I think giving it a stamina morph would change that, and likely make it suitable for the majority of DW builds on Templars.

Thoughts? Comments? Concerns?

    Yeah, it would be nice to get a gap closer for stamplar and we'd get more use out of the burning light passive

    Has anyone seen ANYONE seen ANYONE using it at all in the past several months?

    I really believe this would be a great change, while being relatively simple for the devs to accomplish. I would love to be able to use this on my StamPlar.

    I used it a few weeks ago!

    Just to see what the animation looks like because I forgot after all those years. :'(

    Annnd MOST magplars have no use for a gap closer. So, even if it wasn’t broke (which it has been since beta), the concept is kinda broke.

    Sure, I guess. Now that 2handed weapons count as 2 armor pieces is this still a thing?

    Do stamplars run duel weild and bow in pvp?

    I would think templars would ask for more.

    Stamplars usually run dual wield on the front bar and two handed on the back bar. The back bar is almost exclusively reserved for buffs and heals though

    Id have use for one but I now adjusted my build so I dont need one anymore since that skill is so clunky

    What Cactus said. DW meshes with StamPlar better, for the most part, since our best damage is from DoT’s.

    Focused Charge should be scrapped. Despite having the same “minimum distance” as Shield Charge, it is much less dependable. Takes all this time to set up for an underwhelming effect, if you can even get the ability to go off.

    I’m running Pelinial’s on my DW bar (Templar WW hybrid) and I still don’t use it.

    Get rid of these worthless Templar skills and give us something good.

    Well i don't want things taken away i think every class skill should have 2 stamina and 2 magic morps

    But my real complaint about this skill and why i use it just for fun is the range limit you cant use it in melee range
    you got to back pedal just to use it again if not for that it would be a good aoe skill

    In PvP? What gear/build are you running?

    Regardless... as is, both morphs are only able to utilized by Magicka builds, and 99% of Magicka builds do not use it.

    And... we (StamPlars) still need a morph we can use.

    I certainly agree that stamplars need a charge, though the weapon-based ones are pretty awesome alternatives

    In pvp I sometimes run Nobles Conquest to dovetail with explosive charge, other times I use Light of Cyrodiil/Soulshine especially now that there's the psijiic channeling passive

    I use it in pve as a "ranged" interrupt, works nicely on the tiger in fang lair. But for pvp I stick with 2h and crit rush.

    Hate to tell ya but pretty much all charges in this game are broken right now in pvp; they won’t land on anyone moving.

    I kno this. But, it would work fine, and actually mesh well with Javelin in its current form. Javelin-> charge

    In my experience most stam players I know have dropped the gap closer and adopted speed pots or major expedition as the means in which they close distance in a fight.

    Stamplars usually use speed pots too because they have no mobility not running a gap closer. But giving us a stam charge morph will help with one of stamplars biggest weaknesses in pvp kites. Stam recovery is so bad by the time you run to someone attacking you from any range you will have lost a huge chunk of stam

    There’s no need for a gap closer unless you absolutely can’t function without one. Last time I used a gap closer was when I played melee magblade in 2016.

    Not even a stam thing. Don’t run it on magplar or magwarden.

    This.

    I do run speed pots atm... probably still would. But not having to sprint would be incredibly beneficial to the class. Our Stam management is absolutely brutal enough without having to spring.
