Was playing a lot with my sorc last month, cheesing/stealing kills with my Mage's wrath and almost immortal thanks to my shields.
Battleground become too easy so i tried going back to my templar. that was a bad idea.
Guess what playing templar pvp is like playing hard mode difficulty, only for masochiste.
*** this wracked templar class, only for healers and idiots.

Mag Sorc are packed with Pets and powerful defensive shield and streak.
While playing mag Tempalr make sure u have mist form for escape and thats all!
I have been playing my magplar since summerset as burst and glass oriented. It's incredibly effective in BGs. But...I had to give it up after new update since flare nerfs hit too hard. So I swapped back to my puncturing sweeps setup. Pariah, pirate skelly, regen set. I missed those big burst heals from the other build. So I had a thought
Playing my glass canon I REALLY got comfortable with horrible sustain and passive mitigation. So I swapped to full damage glass canon puncturing sweeps build. Its insanely effective.
I run 740 regen unbuffed, 4.8k spell damage not including spell strategist and I'm able to put down BIG boy damage that makes all but the best duos *** themselves. I rarely zerg (although I am guilty...) mainly at resources or alone against multiple players.
My advice is to drop all sustain, all defense, and learn to play with it. You will not regret it. It's the best way to really learn your classes defense, offense and opportunity windows for burst.
Also...crescent sweep, its AMAZING. Dont sleep on it. 16k initial hits against poorly defended 810s. It's really a great class. Although I'm still salty AF about dark flare nerfs...
you can't play pvp without sustain and defense. templars need to give up on dmg in order to do that where other class got that sustain and defense built in their skills:
- sorc got shields for defense (skills)
- nightblade got cloak (skill)
- dk got dmg mitigation (skill)
- warden get dmg mitigation and shield (skill)
Rune focus...
every other class got that major resolve and major ward skill

Poi ting out that it's sustain and defense in one skill and if you stay inside your rune, it's 50% more resist buff. It's as good as any of the others., If not better.

are you joking ?
really ?
do you think templar should stay in the rune to get that 50% more buff ?
you made my day

Actually that standing in rune is nonsensical for pvp....
I told somebody when I was trying to use lard wahden with rune.. "I remember a dev once saying templar is suppose to be a house"
He replied "that's why he was fired some months ago"
That guy was a stam nb lol...

It's not 50% more resists. It's 50% more of Major Ward/Resolve.
Casting Rune grants Major Ward and Resolve. Standing in your 5m Rune grants you 2640 phys and spell resists on top of the Major buffs.
