Just make sure if you use Mage Light /Bound Aegis you put them on the third bar too or it will turn them off when you Overload. Last night I actually had a great time in Cyrodil PVP even though I was on DC! I think the key was we were on TeamSpeak so orders were easier. I still need to figure out how to put out more single target DPS with my Stamina Templar. DW is ok but I find that Quick Cloak and Steel Tornado really do not make a difference. If I yolo into pack of enemies in an open field fight I'm as good as dead as they scatter. I need single target DPS. Right now when I'm not on support helping heal and remove dot's I find a target, Power Of Light-Poison Arrow-Toppling Charge-Sun Shield-Biting Jabs-Light Attack-run away because they are not dead but I am going to be. So, can you guys give me some advice on my killing ability as a Stamina Templar? Armour is 5 medium(Whitestrake’s Retribution), 2 light. Bar 1 (DW) Toppling Charge Biting Jabs Sun Shield (Radiant Ward as soon as I can) Quick Cloak (I barely remember to use it) Repentance Ult: Empowering Sweep Bar 2 (Bow) Poison Arrow (Snipe when I get it) Scorched Earth Power of Light (Love this) Cleansing Ritual (Slotted this last night to help with the fire dots) Breathe of Life Ult: Solar Prison NuckmasterJ fucked around with this message at 17:40 on Apr 14, 2015 |

Here's my planned build for my PvP templar that I've been working on - he used 2H and swaps to bow instead of DW, though: http://www.esohead.com/calculator/s...zKpUN8zL7zzK4EX I'm still missing several key morphs/abilities and it's been quite durable and viable so far. Name of the game is keeping armor and heals/regen ticking while killing dudes with crit rush, heavy strike, and executioner. Everything else is for staying hard as hell to kill. Also, if you want to PvP, get venom arrow over poison for the stun/interrupt.

Anyone know details on how the account transfer to PS4 works? My roommate wants to pick this game up on PS4, and I figure if ti splits the account in 2, and we can both be logged in at the same time, its cheaper to just transfer my account than have him buy a whole new one.

Javelin mostly for trying to punt dudes off walls from further out and score laughs. You're right about it being a setup for critical rush, though.

I think I can bank almost 10k damage with it on my 41 Templar, but I guess I agree. When I unlock Radiant Glory I would probably switch for the heals.

Screw you guys for making me swap to a caster build so we could get through pledges without begging for heals. That out of the way, it's decent fun being the person responsible for keeping the party alive. Did a normal pledge last night scaled to VR 11 and actually came out without being yelled at for being a poo poo healer by my party. Can't do solo PvE content worth a drat anymore, but who needs to get to VR 14 anyway

I didnt have time to play yesterday but on Monday managed to do a few hours of pvp with my coldharbor ballista and was pretty fun. Cyrodiil pve exp is kind of really good now though. I made 10% of a VR level just clearing a single delve.

I was really worried about trying to switch over to medium armor at VR1 to try a different build out; putting on a full suit of training armor has me at 32 after half a veteran rank or so from 8 starting out. So that's nice!

So that's nice! I love the training trait. It seems if you make yourself weapons with Training you can have your weapon skills above 42 at a very low level, which opens up exciting possibilities in the non vr Cyrodil!

I'm on a mac (with an nvidia card) and the client is prone to crashing when loading textures. It seems to be a bug that keeps coming and going, early on the texture LOD was completely broken and it'd just leak all the texture memory until there was no room for any more textures and it started to look like mario 64, thankfully they fixed that. i think broadly the quality is the same as the windows client

Just make sure if you use Mage Light /Bound Aegis you put them on the third bar too or it will turn them off when you Overload. If you have played on the major PVP campaigns recently (Thornblade / Chillrend), I am Gondor on DC and am currently rocking the Stamplar. I've been away for a week doing stuffs, but, a big part of Stamplar is your gearing. Currently since I'm moneybags-mcgee, I have splashed out on all kinds of armour, but a cheap alternative is: 3pc Way of Air 3pc Shadow Walkers (Jewelry, this is still super expensive) 3pc Ashen Grip (Weapon + 2pc) 3pc Sentry (Cheap, <5k per piece) Ideally you'll replace your 3pc Way of Air with 2pc Way of Air, and 1pc Bloodspawn. My gear set currently is: 3pc Way of Air 1pc Bloodspawn 4pc Morag Tong 3pc Shadow Walker My attribute spread is 25 HP, 37 Stam, giving me ~24/24k, and I have ~1800 stam regen with the continuous assault buff. You wouldn't think that it helps, but having high regen does help immensely as Stamplar, since it allows you to dodge roll for a lot longer, and a dodge is ~1.5s of avoiding projecties and most damage. I rock 2h/DW, but the DW is mostly for group fighting. The DW bar mostly covers utility skills. Critical Rush Executioner Biting Jabs Rally Blazing Shield Flawless Dawnbreaker Steel Tornado Evil Hunter / Restoring Aura Razor Caltrops Vigor (Alliance War Stam heal, a must if you're going stam imo) Blazing Shield Reviving Barrier My Magicka pool is almost exclusively for Blazing Shields, since I can alternate casting it between dodge rolls. Razor Caltrops will proc Evil Hunter ticks, so when you throw caltrops into a big group you can get much more stam for your AoE, or you can set it and forget it while you 2h targets. There are things in both your builds that are no good: Toppling charge is terrible. Since your damage scales off your weapon damage and stamina amount you'll deal less damage with T Charge than you would with Crit Charge. Repentance also scales off magicka, so the amount of stam restored is ~1k per corpse, as opposed to a Magicka Templar who will get ~3k, before crits. The Restoring Aura is much better, since it gives 20% stam regen and medium armour gives stam regen bonuses. Instead of using Empowering Sweep, consider Flawless Dawnbreaker. My Biting jabs at 3k Weapon Damage and 24k stam hits for ~12k, and I get 1-2 burning light procs per jabs, totaling around 18-20k damage assuming crits. If you're planning on soloing, most of your damage will come from the 2h. 2h is where it's at in terms of damage for Stamplars.

I also do not have access to wicked cool expensive gear sets, I'm still using my lvl 36 Whitestrake’s Retribution.

The shadow mundus stone is broken. I need to do more testing, but I think its just not getting buffed from divines like it should. Doesn't surprise me because the steed was broken this same way for a while. My crits hit for substantially more with the warrior mundus than the shadow one. With a full set of divine, shadow was giving me less than 1% bonus crit damage.

I also like your back bar setup. I find I only switch to bow for Power of The Light before I charge in.I can see running DW as an awesome thing for another set peice item slot plus steel steel tornado for the zerg shenaigans. My problem with steel tornado is it seems to burn through stamina faster then any other ability, but that's more or less my major long term problem (sustainability in combat).
