Purifying light is a skill that copies 20% of the damage inflicted on an enemy and puts it back on them. So normally the combo is to put dots up, purifying light, and jab. Jabs will bring the enemies health down and when purifying light ticks, it will do around 6-10k damage, depending on the damage applied before it ticked. Combo that with an execute and ya dead son. BTW jabs heals for 40% of the damage caused so that might be why you feel like their heals are godly, you probably don't pressure them enough to stop their jabs.

I know all this. I have 10 lv 50s a stam and mag for every class the majority leveled strictly thru bgs researching builds along the way. I guess Ill revisit my magplar and do some testing.

SnB + protective. Basically makes you a heavy armour build.

It depends on the templar, some just seem so strong

Using staves

Maybe they're just better than you? What's your build/race? I play a medium stamplar and sometimes peoplee can barely even scratch my health simply because theyre obviously not setup properly or don't understand how to line up their damage. Magplars can be very strong of course but lets try and get to the bottom of this before we start saying godplars.

Hey now! You take that rationality and GTFO. We don’t like your kind ‘round here.

Nerf the godplars!

To be clear im just trying to figure out what these dudes are running in bgs

I'm talking db shalks combo not even scratching them.

They hold block

it s like you already said. We are playing 5pcs light because it s tankier and more efficient as 5 heavy.

I personal running 2 old but gold sets and one which has disappeard but is strong as before.

My setup is: 2H5L, 5pcs rattlecage/5pcs Wizard riposte/2pcs blood spawn
combined with 3 stat food and 3 stat pots. Frontbar wiz froststaff and backbar wiz resto staff.

non-CP stats:
sitting on 22k res in my rune without blood spawn. 3,6k buffed spell damage with 1500 mag reg and 2 mag cost reduction glyphs. I block with mag on my froststaff to have more stam for break free s and roll dodge and I love the dmg reduction

I have a smal pool of magicka but it total fine with reg and cost reduction in non-CP (plus I m Argonian - pot restore OP)
sitting on 27,5k health/32k mag and 17k stam

And yes, purifying + blockade + vamps bane + jabs are enough for unskilled or glass-cannon players

Normal battleground with 800-1mio dmg dealed and 400-600k healing done (solo play not premade)

cheers

Cyrodiil Light set... It's a real thing in Mageplars.

Thanks man, id put money on this being the set causing me issues. It makes sense of what ive been seeing.

The only other Templar that gave me trouble was an argonian in BG who was spamming javelins while his partner dropped the AOE. Other than that instance, I haven't had much of a problem with any.

You need to keep them on the defensive and get in a big burst. Gradual pressure does little to nothing against a good magplar, even 2v1.

@VikingBerserker : I run 5pc cyrodiil light and 5pc steadfast hero. i'm also in light armor with lightning stave

this is what dmg mitigation I'm getting:

to start the fight, I get 8% minor protection when sweeping you. I get another 15% from cyrodiil light. after the first jab, I backbar a quick ritual which gives me 5 seconds of 30% major protection. back to sweeps... and more mitigation.

that said, range is the rock to my scissor. I have no shield or reflect. a good sorc can make my life hell. i'm also a vampire, so a good magdk is troublesome too.

Stole your build (in a way) and trying it out tonight.

Going Ice Staff, S&B though.

I went 2 protective on the jewelry and 1 arcane. Puts me pretty close to 30k resistances in 5light-1heavy-1medium.

Quoting myself. This build is just insane. With an Ice Staff you are more support than anything but I'm still putting up 1m+ damage a match with the DoTs (Blazing Spear, Blockade of Frost, Solar Prison, Skoria) and a nice side of AoE Major Defile (Dark Flare).

Ranged are covered with Defensive Stance and Total Dark. It's fun for sure and I think could be even stronger with a Lightning Staff for the +AoE damage.

good deal - i put most of my builds up on youtube and plan to get my magplar build up there soon. everyone yells at me for not having jesus beam on the bar but don't have space. same goes for degen... have to use pots instead.

the ice staff sounds interesting. more control / less dmg.
