Does My Class Matter If I'm Going Stam DPS?

I'm just curious, since I picked Templar, then realized that most the skills are Magic!
Should I just focus on the 2-handed tree and eschew my class skills?

    No. Once you get enough XP in the class skills, many will offer stamina morphs. In particular, the "Puncturing Strikes" skill will eventually morph into the stamina "Biting Jabs" skill, which is one of the best skills in game.

    Class has influence of course, but any class can do endgame as stam dps.. templar can reach really really high numbers so no worries

    But what should I do until they can morph?
    Just M1 mobs & stick my points in Heavy armor (Since I am solo-ing allot.)?

    Also; Should I just pump stam? Since I'm being a DPS and not a tank?

    Stay with stamina Templar. You’re going to love it and it’s a good class to start with!

    Stamplar is pretty busted tbh. Run Deadly strike x5 , relequens x5, selenes x2, MA bow backbar. Shadow Mundus. Fill your ability bar with all fighters guild abilities except jabs on front bar and endless hail on back bar.

    Easiest 100k+ parse of your life. LA > jabs spam then trap > barswap >endless hail > barswap and back to LA > jabs spam. I run repentence and vigor on backbar in dungeons and stuff. It's ridiculous how easy it is to do crazy damage on stamplar. Breaking 100k on any other class requires far more complex rotations, practice, and skills. Took me about 2 hours of practice to hit 100k on stamplar

    If you're soloing a lot, putting 5 points or so into health may be useful; usually, though, DDs go all-in with their primary resource (stamina for you).

    Skills level when they're on the active bar and you get XP - so make sure that every time you turn in a quest, you're on the bar where you have Puncturing Strikes. Reading an XP scroll from the login rewards before turning in quests also helps levelling the skill faster so you can access the morph.

    NGL; 90% of this went over my head.
