I am aware, my Templar doesn't come close to a Sorcerers DPS. He should been pumping out way more than I can take. When he hit me with Soul Assault I was like ah S***. But luckily he seemed pretty incompetent. Recovering from 300 health and killing him was due to his mistakes not my successes. I usually play a ranged support role. Despite what people say the Templar while underpowered is still very enjoyable for some. You just have to work within your limitations.

@CosmicChaos‌ Nice work. I applaud your determination in chasing after some dude for so long. I bet it made the kill that much more satisfying.

I'm wondering, what's the add-on you're using that displays the time remaining for buffs/debuffs at the top of the screen?

(AND)

a. Is it compatible with the new patch?
b. Can you adjust the settings so it doesn't show all those extra colored numbers flying around? I just want something to show buffs/debuffs but I don't like the looks of any add-ons I have found yet that do only this...

P.S. I also enjoy playing a templar. I have the craziest build ever but I enjoy the hell out of it and I do quite well. I'm only V2 and reading the forums worries me that pretty soon that is going to change but I'm hopeful!

Thanks, though it wasn't determination as much as I was about to get offline so I thought what hell why not. lol The Templar takes a little more work, but it is still viable if you stay within your limitations. Even in PVP I play a pretty efficient support role.

That addon is Foundry Tactical Combat. And yes it lets you decided whether is shows damage numbers. It comes with a decent set of options. I actually have them off turned off and the ones you are seeing are from Combat Cloud.

lol, he should have bolt through you then use mage fury, first stun you for 2 sec, then finish you.

But again, you handled well at low health.

I would never chase an enemy 5 min, Cyrodiil is big enough for both of us, especially when there is nobody there to begin with.

Yeah, poorly sorc. I would have weap flipped- dropped an ae hot and shield , made sure my bolt had the correct morph, bolted into you using the stun offensively over and over while cursing/wrath/shard destroying your face. But yeah grats on the massive time dump chasing a scrub.

Can take the gimp out of a class but not the player.

Agree mostly, but you didn't seem to notice I activated immovable as soon as I was dismounted. 8 seconds of immunity tells you I was expecting him to BE stun me. As any competent player would have at least attempted. ^.^

This sorc is the type of player that will be affected by the 1.2 retuning of bolt that will increase the cost exponentially when used in succession. Those of us that use it as a primary offensive ability will not notice the retune at all.

I appreciate players that counter abilities instead of crying they are not able to be countered. A long fight between 2 players always feels more rewarding than when I jump into a pack of scrubs and drop 10 players without even potting first or during the fight. Although I do appreciate their* sacrifice and ap points on my behalf.

Trying to counter things that kill you by any means is more efficient than waiting for ZOS to figure out that nerfing isn't the only way to balance a game. And complaining doesn't get me AP so I try not to waste excessive time on it. lol

stop postig vids you kill sorcs

sorcs are unkillable and escape everything

.... oh i forgot ...... NOT

yeah!, now lets see you kill a v12 DK! LOL

hunting down a sorc is not that difficult (because we are soon OOM)

but the change of dark exchange in 1.2 fixes that

Templar should be a 'hard counter' with backlash, eclipse, burst healing and many defensive skills.

I swear, all the Templars lighting up the forums do not use some of their most amazing abilities. Oh I can't spam a L1 spear skill for uber dps? Nope! Nor should you be able to (and ya Crystal Frag falls in that same category ZoS!)

While Backlash is effective it sucks in 1v1. In the 1.5 seconds cast window I can cast a CC for 200dam and Reflective Light for another 200 doubling its damage over time. Even if you use Backlash with a burst single target Ult like Soul Assault you are still only getting an additional hit of 600 after 6 secs have passed. In a group setting it is an excellent support against tanks often hitting for an extra 1k+. I run at about 300dps with my Templar, which I am fine with. I think the thing most Templars are struggling with it that our skill cost and lack of resource management is not reflected in our DPS. I understand the issue with giving us the resource management of the Sorc class. We could endlessly cast heals and CC. I would like to see things like Solar Barrage and Backlash cast times reduced to .5 or 1 second. Backlash cost would need to be increased by about 50. Maybe see some slight buffs to a couple passives. Other than that I think the balance issues are in things the gap between magicka and Stamina. Sprinting should cost little stamina, rolling too. Bash and CC break cost are understandable as well as sneak.
