Magicka Templar EASY Rotation | Update 39

[@robertschell3872]

Thank you so much for this vid. Newer to your channel but have been playing magplar in PvE for years now so I always love hearing others opinions on builds and such. Great explanations for when to over/under cast abilities and what abilities are prioritized in execute and the lead up to execute. Thanks so much for the content.

[@NinjaPulls]

That's great - thanks for the comment and glad you enjoyed the vid!

Sir! Clear, not annoying with details, overal-pleasure to watch! One sub incoming!!!!!

I appreciate that - welcome aboard!

One of the best parse guides I’ve seen

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks! Glad you like it 🤩

[@Melsharpe95]

I love the Templar. It's just so wonderfully versatile.

[@NinjaPulls]

Same. Magplar is one of my favourites.

[@rayray0987]

"Versatile"? As in it is bad outside of execute range, doesn't have any good unique group buffs, and isn't suited for using any group support sets, so its one role is parse dps, where it's outdamaged by DK and Arcanist? It is the completely selfish dps (other than providing the Purify synergy). Due to having all the dps transferred to beam, and Purify being its one unique group utility (and being extremely survivable, in the few cases where that matters, like dungeon hard modes), you only ever "want" one templar, with more lowering each other's dps, due to the faster execute. More beams making execute go faster means less total beam time, means less dps. Maybe if an execute phase is particularly scary, you could stand to take 2.

Nice video. By the way, is the stam dk build still valid for u39?

[@NinjaPulls]

Yes, it is. I tried a bunch of different options (including bow/bow) but the Wrecking Blow rotation was still the best balance between power and simplicity that I could find.

Excellent information and great video, can't wait to parse! You mentioned using bow on back bar, If I want to play around with that what skills do you suggest? If using Inferno on back bar I assume wall and chards? Thank you much.

Thanks for the kind words. Yeah Blockade + Spear sounds good, and with a Bow I went with Poison Injection + Endless Hail. Hope that helps!

[@baptistedargaud5649]

Hey bro incredible guide you have put up in KZbin and your website. Do you have an addon list you use ?

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated 🤩 All the addons I use are on our Discord: discord.com/invite/ninjapulls

[@camarada4853]

Which is the correct way to weave on swapping? Ability -> light attack -> swap -> ability OR ability -> swap -> light attack -> ability? Also, about the stamina recovery, using this set/enchants will you not fell lack of stamina? I mean, since your stam recovery is low compared to the amount of stamina abilities which is been used? Just asking, i'm still trying to understand how to build/parse correctly. Thank you really much!

[@NinjaPulls]

Sustain can be rough if the fight goes on too long, but with all that Medium Armor it should be fine unless you need to block a lot. For those fights you can use a destro back bar and hope your Magicka Recovery holds up. Sustain should always be easier in content (assuming your supports are doing their job). Always weave like this: Light Attack > Ability …. Light Attack > Ability. Press them almost simultaneously, then wait a second, then press the next LA + Ability as close together as you can. That gives you plenty of time to bar swap between one combo and the next. Try to avoid swapping after Puncturing Sweep because you’ll interrupt the channel and lose damage ticks. But if you HAVE to swap after a channel, then do Light Attack > Ability ….. Light Attack > Swap > Ability just in that case.

[@baptistedargaud5649]

Incredible, is it still acurate as of today ?

[@NinjaPulls]

Yes! I'd swap Pillar of Nirn for Aegis Caller for slightly more damage, but yeah everything else is still current.

[@MeR-md1jq]

Thanks for the video. Do you have any non-trial suggestions to replace relequen? Thanks!

[@NinjaPulls]

Hmm, Pillar of Nirn is the obvious one I suppose. But without a trial set you'll be missing the Minor Slayer buff, which is free damage in any group content. So I recommend sticking with the setup shown here if you can - it's all very easy to collect and to use.

[@MeR-md1jq]

Thanks for replying. I've tried a few times to get into pug groups for normal cloudrest, but every time they wouldn't take me because I've never done cloudrest. It's a catch 22

[@NinjaPulls]

Ooof, yeah that's rough. If you're on PC EU then you can always join Ninja Pulls and we'll organise a teaching run. We were literally in vCR+1 and +2 last night teaching people.

hello Ninja! Can you tell me which interface mode you are using? I really like it! also I'm new to this game and I'll give a shot this temp build. thank you very much!

[@NinjaPulls]

If you’re asking about the UI, I use bits of Dark UI (cleaner), LUI Extended (resource bars) and Action Duration Reminder (timers). The scrolling ability icons are edited into the video and not part of the UI, in case you were wondering. Hope that helps.

All I needed help with was sustain, swapping out degen for inner light and using spell power pots did it.

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah always use potions. Glad it worked!

[@aldorfnisperos2]

Love your build man! Just one question, for the cp, why are you using exploiter instead of master at arms?

[@NinjaPulls]

Exploiter is stronger in optimised conditions. But if nobody is keeping up Off Balance then Exploiter will contribute less than 3% and you can go for Master-at-Arms.

Beautiful! Thank you!

[@NinjaPulls]

Haha yeah it's strong right now xD I actually jump at the chance to use something else (see my Stamina Templar and both Arcanists, and pretty much ALL my Stamina builds from U37) but I've tested SO many setups and right now 2H back bar is just the best default for a lot of damage classes. And I wouldn't think much of a DPS guide that recommended lower damage for no reason.

[@SayasOTG]

I have bahsei instead of relequin and i dont have the mythic. Im using zaans. Im getting a 87k parse. Do u think those 2 differences justify why im missing roughly 40k dps?

[@NinjaPulls]

The Mythic doesn’t matter so much, but using Light Armor is a big damage loss here since it’s giving you stats you don’t need (obviously if you DO need more penetration and Magicka Recovery in content, then the picture changes). But most likely there are some other factors in your rotation that are holding you back. Join our Discord (linked in the description) and post a CMX, then I can give you some personalised tips!

im hoping u may be looking in the comments under your older videos as well ^^ - i have the exact same setup with medium/light armour (just runecarver instead of siroria atm) and have darkelf as class, but im only on 30k Max Magicka and 18k Health and i really dont know why that is - my sustain is so bad that i need tri potions ... would love advice in this!

[@NinjaPulls]

Hey there! As far as I know Runecarver isn’t the greatest set to run on a Templar - make sure you’re getting enough DPS out of it or consider swapping it for something else. Best thing to do is to join the Ninja Pulls Discord (link in the description) and either DM me (Kaan) or post in our PvE Questions section. I’d be very happy to help.

[@vossboss220]

So i should only open a parse with shooting star? Is flawless dawnbreaker that much better for the parse outside of bar buffing?

[@NinjaPulls]

Shooting Star is stronger but more expensive, so always start with that if you have enough ult. But if you don't, just go straight in with Dawnbreaker. If you're in a fight where there are defined burst phases (e.g. Yolnahkriin, Ansuul) you can also just sit on the ult and use Shooting Star when it comes around, if that makes sense. I love having two ults to choose from!

[@vossboss220]

@@NinjaPulls gotcha ty for the info

[@tylermorrison1595]

Wow, a magicka build that runs a great sword and daggers

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah, the devs hybridised combat almost 2 years ago, so it's very common to see Stamina using Staves and Magicka using swords etc. It's a good thing.

[@tylermorrison1595]

@NinjaPulls Yeah I used to play ESO heavily until they did that. Zero build variety in the endgame doesn't make for a very exciting time. No matter what class you play you are gonna end up rocking 2H backbar with two daggers. It was fun for a little bit but it definitely hurts the game

[@NinjaPulls]

I see your point @@tylermorrison1595. It's a common view, and before Ascending Tide dropped I was worried about this as well. But actually, it hasn't worked out that way. This patch my guides include Daggers, Bows, Greatswords, Inferno Staves and Lightning Staves on the front bar for different classes. All with excellent damage. Build variety and flexibility in PvE have never been this broad in 10 years of ESO. The devs do make mistakes for sure, but on this particular issue I want to defend them a little bit.

[@danielmayeux2251]

how has it never been this broad? look at mag/stam of any class for top dps and it's the same build unless the group requires something niche. compounded by the newish players that have no idea how all these combinations work, clogging up pledges with pathetic dps. back in the day, different setups could really shine on different class. now, well, its like fortnite@@NinjaPulls

[@7jers3y22]

Great guide. personally, i find it better if you bring up skill bar and explain one by one before the rotation. helps get things proper setup. Edit: trying this build in content seems to be pretty Stam starved without heavy attacks. Edit2: is doubling up on minor force with new mythic really worth it over something like kilt? Edit3: the builds slaps but is very reliant on support for 4man content. You will not be able to carry a random dungeon, this is definitely a build for dummy humping or if you have a good group. I did swap ritual of retribution for restoring focus, and wearing kilt. Gg and thanks!

[@NinjaPulls]

I’ve been using this in dungeons without any issues, but I’m generally playing with very good supports who are bringing all the appropriate buffs/debuffs, as you say. This is unfortunately a common issue with DPS setups - it would be weird if I were to make suboptimal recommendations! But yeah, in dungeons you will find it harder to reach the crit and pen caps, sometimes even if your group is fairly organised.

[@geraltgrey-mane695]

My wife is looking for a solo templar build, what would you recommend ? we are both new players more or less, I have mostly only done crafting hehe and unlocked most sets that I can craft. She would love using the fire staff and going magicka. Any tips? what should I craft or she hunt for gear wise etc etc PS she wants to start going for a one bar build.

[@jannnnnn31]

Can we use depths instead of relequen?

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah sure! It's not as much single target DPS but will still work fine. It's also nice to have 1 x Medium and 1 x Light armor set so you can optimise the ratio for difference groups/encounters.

[@Flatterwolle]

Got a Question , inner light and vampires bane gave the Same buff , why Not Swap inner light with another buff ?

[@NinjaPulls]

Inner Light is there for the Maximum Magicka - quite a damage boost. The only thing I’d swap it for is Deadly Cloak or Camouflaged Hunter. Also, check www.ninja-pulls.com for the latest updated guide. Happy hunting!

[@theg4amingbird809]

What would you recommend if I haven’t done any trials at the moment I’m using orders wrath instead of reliques?

[@NinjaPulls]

Order's Wrath is a great choice. Honestly there are MANY options and it kinda depends what content you're doing. Sounds like you have Deadly already (you can buy some body pieces if not). Pillar of Nirn and Aegis Caller are also excellent dungeon sets (Falkreath Hold and Unhallowed Grave - both DLC) with fun proc effects. They will pair well with Order's or Deadly. There are also easier sets to get (from overland or traders) like War Maiden and Soulshine (heavy) which work quite well with the Templar toolkit. Hope that helps!

[@joshondrus5560]

If you were going to use an inferno staff back bar what skills would you replace stampede and carve with?

[@NinjaPulls]

The Maelstrom 2H is what makes this DPS possible, so I wouldn't drop it unless absolutely necessary (e.g. you're nuking Reef Guardian hard mode and have Encratis in group). Carve isn't needed for shorter fights anyway, so just ditch it for Scalding Rune or Inner Light/Camouflaged Hunter (depending on Minor Berserk uptimes). If you do switch to an Inferno, I'd go with Blockade instead of Stampede.

[@mrkshway]

I thought they changed Sweeps to a series of direct damage in u24 ? Just clarifying that deadly doesn't buff our spammable ?

[@NinjaPulls]

It's a channel, so yes it does get buffed. No panic!

[@bleppppy]

how do you have so much mana

[@spookyronin5791]

What set do you suggest for people who dont do trials

[@NinjaPulls]

Deadly + Aegis Caller (or Pillar of Nirn if there's a lot of movement). Honestly though, start doing trials. Dungeons are #1 for me personally, but trials are one of the best things in ESO and the main reason to have decent DPS. If you're worried about toxic randos, join Ninja Pulls!

[@wulfdean]

Is perfect coral riptide an option on this build instead of Rele Ninja?

[@NinjaPulls]

Only if your supports are giving you amazing stamina sustain. Riptide is usually tricky on Magicka setups. I'd stick with Relequen for single target, and if you need cleave then Whorl + Deadly works very well.

[@tamasnagy-novak5069]

Is Orders Wrath any good with Deadly until my set situation gets better, please?

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah! That set has great stats. You could also consider Claw of the Forest Wraith, another craftable set which is very similar but buffs class abilities specifically (great for execute).

[@akiokinoshita6660]

How do you think about to use sweep on back bar ? I wonder sweep buffed by soler barrage but still lower than dawnbreaker ? 🤔

[@NinjaPulls]

Everlasting Sweep isn't great against single targets. Don't quote me on this, but I think you need to hit at least 2 targets with it before it matches Dawnbreaker. Even with Barrage. Test it out and let us know! You can slot it on the back bar for the passive, but our opening burst is kinda weak so it's nice to have Shooting Star for that.

[@akiokinoshita6660]

@@NinjaPulls thx for reply. that's you're right. I tested sweep but weak to compare with dawnbreaker 😅 toolkit is similar to both ult. sweep base damage is low. also dawnbreaker buff up overall dps but sweep just buffed by barrage itself. off cause meteor is great for opening. however I wanna see little more love for class ult.

[@drained6208]

would there be a way i can somehow turn this into a viable one bar build ? i saw a guy using a build very similar to this but it was a one bar, he was doing about 97k on a dummy. i think he was using deadly strike set and relequen. if something like this is possible, id love a guide. i wanna make a strong templar, but dont want to have to worry about bar swapping, also he was a magplar but he used daggers.

[@NinjaPulls]

Hey there! I suppose if you ditch the Ur-Mage Mythic and replace it with Oakensoul - that could work if you’re playing pretty casually. But if you want to play in more organised groups I wouldn’t recommend a one-bar setup. Bar swapping is probably much easier than you think! Either way, good luck with it!

[@matthewrogers9881]

if i wanted to run maelstrom staff instead what would be my damage drop off?

[@NinjaPulls]

You’d lose some damage pre-execute because the 2H buffs Power of the Light and Sweep, but the beam is unaffected so DPS will still be OK. Maybe a 5k loss? Certainly no more. However it’s not just about damage but also sustain - losing 2 Stamina DOTs and adding an expensive Magicka DOT will make this harder. You may no longer be able to use bi-stat food in tough content. But in shorter fights that’s not an issue, and losing Carve won’t matter in those situations either. I recommend having both the staff and the 2H available. Good luck with it!

Hey! Which platform do you play on? Easy to post a parse to get tips on our Discord: discord.com/invite/ninjapulls

[@NinjaPulls]

It is a bit easier on an Altmer because of racial passives, but it's possible you're missing some Medium Armor, Undaunted or Fighter's Guild passives. Or you could be overcasting Stamina abilities, not taking synergies etc. Hard to say without seeing a CMX report.

[@michelpohl1251]

Maybe a stupid question mate. But why do you use relequin in combo with the necklace? Dont you wear the necklace to get more dmg at the cost of virtualy no light attack dmg? And you need to light attack to proc and maintain relequin. Isnt that a bit counter productive? Trying to wrap my head around it mate😂😂😂.

[@NinjaPulls]

No worries - I understand the confusion! In this game you ALWAYS want to be weaving Light Attacks. Not just for damage but also to activate your glyphs and generate ultimate. So Relequen is still fantastic, since it doesn't buff your Light Attacks but is simply triggered by them. Hope that clears things up.

[@joshpalmer7118]

What food to sustain stam?

[@NinjaPulls]

I used Ghastly Eye Bowl here. No Stamina Recovery needed.

[@Apothas541]

Cp? Food?

[@NinjaPulls]

It's all there right at the start, again at the end, and linked in the description. 😆

[@caskaptein9889]

Does the build still perform in U43?

[@ishotth3sheriff839]

Yes, my friend. No changes for Templar. I would say Whorl of Depths performs better in regular content, but if you want to parse high numbers, then Rele is the one to use. Just know that using LIght armor instead of medium will help your mag regen if you're struggling with that.

[@caskaptein9889]

@@ishotth3sheriff839 great! Im a big fan of Ansuul’s thats also a medium set 😁

[@NinjaPulls]

Yes! All the up-to-date info is here: www.ninja-pulls.com/dps/templar

[@Morgemuffel91]

How is the outfit style called?

[@NinjaPulls]

The shiny armour outfit is a mix of Welkynar, Meridian and Ancestral High Elf.

[@Marchvz]

Noob question. Why u separate in single target and trash? Ina trial o dungeons or exploring need to fight both. Sorry but it’s confusing to me

[@NinjaPulls]

Not a noob question at all! In easier content you're 100% correct - you may as well stick to one setup. In overland I just use my trash setup for everything. But in veteran content (especially newer DLCs) you need to optimise damage for different encounters or they become much harder or even impossible to clear. On console you can switch a few abilities, maybe a gear set. But on PC we use addons to switch abilities and gear instantly so we can go fast and clear each fight effectively. Hope that's a good enough explanation.

[@Marchvz]

@@NinjaPulls oh that’s why I play PS. Thank you!!

[@NinjaPulls]

@@Marchvz no worries - it's a lot more hassle on console, sadly!

[@vbloodyassaultx7428]

Why you cast stampede in execute?

[@NinjaPulls]

To keep the Weapon Damage glyph active. In theory you want your long DOTs running until the end, but rarely is that possible and in long fights like this it's borderline, so just skip it if you prefer. In short fights you can recast it earlier (20% or whatever) and in longer fights it'll depend on your sustain.

[@vbloodyassaultx7428]

I complete forgot about the glyph. It makes absolut sence lol thanks anyways xD

[@jinxedcat9843]

What's the point in saying its mag when both weapons are stam

[@NinjaPulls]

I just call it what it is. I’m sorry if you don’t like hybridisation, but it was almost 2 years ago now so I think it’s time to just accept it. This is how the game works, and criticising a content creator for the devs’ decisions is pretty silly when you think about it. This IS a Magicka Templar, and it’s a pretty good guide. So maybe try it instead of wishing for the game to be different.

[@BigHank26]

What race?

[@NinjaPulls]

Doesn't matter that much tbh. This is an Altmer (just look at her 😆) but Dunmer and Khajiit are also great.

[@fightermama1748]

Great video! Not sure I would call the rotation easy tho.

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks! I guess it’s relative - by historic magplar standards (or compared to a 130k dynamic rotation) this is an absolute breeze. But compared to Arcanist not so much. It takes practice. Good luck with it!

[@fightermama1748]

True! I have also been away from the game for awhile but loved that Templar didn’t need the elaborate dynamic rotations to do its best damage in the past, but I guess that has changed a bit. Well done with the guide tho.

[@poisonious_cactus9402]

Any sub sets for rele?

[@NinjaPulls]

Move Deadly to the body and swap in Whorl on weapons & jewelry. But also, just go get Relequen if you can - it's easy to get and super easy to use.

[@Mechanical3000]

Sweet, now do it in first person.

[@NinjaPulls]

Why?

[@antihero8603]

Nice.

[@wolfSteel02]

sorry, i´m noob in the game, this is for pvp or pve?

[@NinjaPulls]

Most definitely PvE.

[@wolfSteel02]

@@NinjaPulls thanks xd

[@KnightressWolf]

What race for this?

[@NinjaPulls]

Hey there! Race doesn't matter much, but mine is a High Elf. Dark Elf is almost identical, with Khajiit only slightly behind (sometimes ahead, in dungeons for example). Hope that helps!

[@KnightressWolf]

@@NinjaPulls thank you! =)

[@mikepree7013]

Pls can you Tell me the Outfit

[@NinjaPulls]

Sure! The outfit at the start and for most of the video is Welkynar mixed with Meridian (mostly heavy).

[@rhykryz735]

Move this !!

[@rhykryz735]

Lol love this!!! Dont know why move got in…. Truly love this!!

[@NinjaPulls]

Oh right, I wondered what "move" meant lol. Thanks!

[@lbp3141]

What about a stamplar build

[@NinjaPulls]

Can do. I've posted the basics for a bow/bow stamplar on www.ninja-pulls.com/dps/templar#stamina

[@vbloodyassaultx7428]

I play staff backbar in content because stampede is shit for a lot of situations xD

[@NinjaPulls]

Sure, I sometimes use a Staff back bar as well. But not because Stampede is bad. Maybe somewhere like Yaseyla hard mode it's risky... but just calling it "shit" is an exaggeration. When I choose an Inferno back bar it's generally because a) Carve isn't worth running in that fight and b) Encratis is being provided. Stampede has little or nothing to do with it.

[@Commander-cg2me]

Could you Do a stam or magcro pls

Nice video

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks! Glad you liked it 🤩

[@ZSuub]

Race ???

[@NinjaPulls]

Doesn't really matter. But check the CMX, the thumbnail or anywhere in the video. It's an Altmer.

[@devilmaycry0917]

at this point why even play a mag toon just use the exact same setup on a stam templar for even higher dps

[@NinjaPulls]

Actually, if there's ANY class where I prefer to play Magicka, this is it. Because it all hinges on the execute, the Stamina Templar has to awkwardly contort itself to keep up. This build does not work great on Stam - I had to go bow/bow to get acceptable results.

[@lilarna.fjolnir]

First in ;) AMSR voice yay ( :p )

[@NinjaPulls]

ASMR voice? That wasn't intentional! 🤐

[@RyLonTheBarber]

holy shit that’s a lot i’m a veteran who has not played since I was a kid and wow I never knew a single thing abt this game rotation seems so hard on console imo I just start spamming the spear one lmao i’m only lvl 21 rn ryzeodactyl on ps5

[@NinjaPulls]

If you’re new and missing tons of gear and stuff, don’t worry about nailing rotations like this just yet. This is for when you’re doing Trials on veteran difficulty, and don’t worry it’ll feel natural after a bit of practice - it’s just a different combat system from most other games so it can feel weird at first. Took me a while to get used to as well, but ultimately it’s 2 button pushes per second and eventually you won’t even notice it. But hey, take your time, enjoy the game and happy hunting!

[@philipbrown2212]

if you do anything besides trials with this build its ass. the sustain is so terrible without group buffs its unplayable.

[@NinjaPulls]

You're doing it wrong. You can see how it performs right there in the video, without group buffs (aside from those on the dummy, which are extremely basic) and it can self sustain for nearly 3 minutes. Also, loads of players run this setup in dungeons every day, getting trifectas and excellent damage. Not sure where you're going wrong, but if you wanna join the guild Discord I'd be happy to try and help.
