Thanks for watching my Stamina and Magicka Templar PvE DPS Guide for ESO.

Wouldn’t be enjoying ESO as much as I do if it wasn’t for your presence throughout the ESO community, love what you do keep up the great work as always! 💛

[@skinnycheeks]

Thank you! 🙏

[@saliciakeyz]

Mad props for shouting out to Deltia and other creators. Good builds too, G!

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks!

[@Sl0thPriest]

This is such a help. I appreciate all the extra work you put into explaining situational advantages and preferences. Helped me immensely. Thank you!

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks! Glad it helped!

[@vampiratevgames]

I really appreciate this video, as I run both stam and magplars and was starting to feel a little overwhelmed with the changes. You always seem to explain things in a way that leaves me feeling like I understand the 'why' of it all :) Also, just wanted to share that Jagga-Drenched Mud Ball has become a staple for running around overland on my mag toons that don't have their mount speed completed yet. Between that food, CP speed boosts, and Wild Hunt, I rarely feel the need for a mount

[@morvan8174]

Amazing video as always, started building a Templar recently and didn't know Deadly Strike was that good, thank you!

[@patrickjerabek1256]

Always waiting for your videos to come up. You always show so many different viable setups and most importantly, you are explaining why and how they work. Nice job as always. :D

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks a bunch!

[@FataFolterer]

You're just doing such a great job at visualizing the more complicated rotations. Thank you for all the effort you put into these :D

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks!

[@dirtsapient9638]

Thanks for all of your hard work skinny cheeks. Appreciate it. I know it takes a lot of time to do this stuff.

[@HurricaneDev]

Very insightful video, thanks for your time! Definitely going to be playing around with my Stamplar after this 🎉

[@millyrockrob1532]

Been waiting for this!! Everyone has been saying Templar is so far behind the other classes this patch but I knew you’d pull through with high numbers!

[@BadKarma.-]

@Turkic Sage dont need many cros anymore

[@Re4MasTeR]

@@BadKarma.- 2 instead of 3

[@reffa2858]

thats how templars have been since the beginning. The stamplar especially has always been at the bottom of the totem pole.

[@over9000optimally]

I've had the opposite experience. Templars are by far the easiest class to play and build. My templar is my strongest toon by a lot.

[@Mercerplays]

Man ... wow what a build video. Thanks a lot for your hard work. It takes a lot of time to get all those sets with the right trait, even with transmute gems. Plus the time to make the video and edit it. Thanks man fr.

[@skinnycheeks]

thank you! the video definitely takes a while to put together.

[@onthaloose7521]

Great vid Skinny. Completely agree about Deadly - I switched to Deadly over Kinras a few months ago and haven't gone back. lol. Also, "whip until I poop" is legendary, man! lol

[@skinnycheeks]

Haha thanks!

[@clash505]

Crushed another one! Very excited to see your take on the other classes.

[@BobDRAD]

You're breaking my heart, man! I always watch your videos but then I need your written notes for gear, rotations, skills, etc that I can refer to during builds and parses! Please keep including those invaluable gems in your descriptions!

[@skinnycheeks]

they are all on my website now!

[@BobDRAD]

@@skinnycheeks So they are, and very nicely organized as well. Even better! Ok, we're good now thanks :-)

[@whiteh2okayaker748]

Great vid Skinny! Great explanation on everything. Really hope this generates a reaction vid from that clown Mistikraven. His last about your DK vid was the funniest since the diminishing returns one. Can always count on him after all these years for a good laugh.

[@Inquisitor_Mordrak]

Great parse, Skinny! And as always a very informative guide (:

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks!

[@shermancakes457]

As always thank you for your time and being so thorough with your vid. Appreciate you 😎

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks!

[@angrybobr365]

U re great! It's insane work for this video to understand it, test it, explain it and visualize it! Ur explains are fantastic! Thank u bro!

[@skinnycheeks]

thanks! appreciate that!

[@johnny5784]

Great video! Keep up the good work, putting out high quality, really informative content!

[@randcome]

thank you for this. you make sense of a confusing landscape of buffs from food and potions. i cant help but learn something! i cant wait to see some one bar builds due to oakensoul.

[@officialnillocgaming3341]

Great video, very well spoken and informative. You got my sub 💪🏼 keep up the great work man!!!

[@donlupjunior]

Another amazing job :) only 30 mins in and its a banger yet again thanks for your hardwork

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks!

[@morekazoo2116]

Thank you so much - really appreciate all your work on these!

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks!

[@madzy-jr]

can’t wait for you to drop a warden guide. mine is a Nord because i created her to be mainly a tank but have been struggling to find a decent solo build for when i’m off adventuring. (my mag sustain is 🍑)

[@RobertDavis-rq8sl]

I want to say I have found alot of these type vids from several good people but have found yours are by far the best cause you don't assume we are all vet players or awesomely good players

[@x40ozSkiLz]

Dang. I think I subd when you only had around 5k. You still have the best commentary/explanations in my opinion.

[@skinnycheeks]

thank you! 🙏

[@chrisblack6895]

I always enjoy your build videos! One suggestion, show us your stats buffed so we can compare. I'm coming back after being out for 6 months and my dps has bottomed out. It was 120k now its 47-48k :/

[@somedayasalion7439]

So glad your recognizing Deltia in your videos . Get guide skinny ❤️

[@jaypeterman6442]

Thank you for not literally titling every single build GOD MODE GOD TIER GOD GOD GOD. It so hard to watch ESO videos these days when every single build ever made is ABSOLUTE GOD! Thank you for breaking that mold.

[@franperuzzi]

Your 30s rotation helped me increase my DPS by 11k in less than a dozen parses. Still nowhere near 129k, but I feel like 115k is within reach. Thank you!

[@skinnycheeks]

that's awesome to hear!

[@ragnar5255]

Oh Boy, time to change my templar around for the one time in the week i get to play DPS. I'm really tempted to run a stamina-focused setup for my dungeon group since i always liked stamplar more. Maybe I'll get to play DPS in one of the Raid Partys aswell *Fingers crossed*

[@zachary93]

THANKS FOR PEN AND CRIT GUIDE!

[@matthammes4566]

Really nice to hear someone else prefers Deadly over Kinra's!

[@shadowmere3587]

oh man i wish you would do a guide like this for every class

[@royarg8603]

Hey Skinny, if I'm not able to get any trial gear, what setup would you recommend that works for both plars? Something like deadly/tzogvin's, deadly/briarheart, or deadly/hunding's?

[@Mechanical3000]

Thanks for the plar build. I feel Templar has been left out of endgame all together for the pass 6 years. As old as eso is now, I don’t think this will change. At least our mdk got plenty of love. Thanks again Skinny

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks!

[@red-tailangelspitfire3075]

never felt the need to say this but you did such a good job 'I subscribed' great video man.

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks! Appreciate it!

[@lukechaffee3317]

Question out of curiosity how much of a dps loss is it dropping power of the light for another bitting jabs cast

[@DylanBU41]

Hey! Random, but in the CP section, I see the 4 listed, but outside of those 4 slots, do you recommend any other passive buffs to allocate points into?

[@RikyJoeCardz]

I'm running sorrow front bar and deadly back bar on magplar, using arena 2H vMA. Would war maiden be better than sorrow, in your opinion since it boosts sweeps?

[@ThePooky01]

So Im making my stamplar and if I dont include an execute, then infused jewerly would be good even for endgame content like vet trials right?

[@kaijjukaijju2080]

Great guide! Thanks Skinny :)

[@cujoegaming5277]

Really great info as always! Templar seems in a really good spot right now as there are ton of cleave options for stamplar as well now due to hybridisation. When going Stam with staff back bar, could I just swap ritual for caltrops for easier mag sustain? Also I think what is worth mentioning is that even if Dagger Cloak seems to be the weaker choice for single target it adds quite a bit of cleave compared to the other options on the flex spot.

[@skinnycheeks]

Caltrops are a good bit less dps than ritual but you could do it if it fixed the sustain problems. And yah deadly cloak is nice aoe. Just a small radius

[@spirosdelistavros2970]

I am using deadly strike bow on the back bar wich skill would be best to compensate that?

[@supermansolano1]

Is jabs the most important skill to keep up or purifying light? Because I can’t pass 75-80k and with bahsai slime , kilt and kin, I try releq body and kinras and couldn’t sustain it, but I’m having the same issue with kin, overwhelming, slime and kilt and same results 75-80k I just need to know if I should prioritize jabs more then any other skill without neglecting the other skills

[@VenardZero]

Whats your spell power and max magicka without potions or active buffs?

[@benerjohnson6605]

What food were u usin in mag parse? I tried 4 medium and I can’t sustain it

[@br0d302]

Pretty sure my favourite thing about this patch is how all the setups that used to work are still working. There’s just a higher ceiling to be achieved by adapting to the hybridization and planning out gear/pots for different phases of a super sweaty raid. Great breakdown again. Thanks for doing these!

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks! And I agree. I’m really liking it a lot. With some future tweaks this could be a really great new system

[@dibelmont7463]

question! how good is the Scathing Mage set? I just can’t get adequate damage from bahse + keeping the mana pool in a real trial battle is sooo difficult. I just want a powerful increase in damage. What can you think of?). And yes, without using a kilt, because again, in a real battle, in a melee zone, it is absolutely useless, for range DD it may be possible ...

[@spirosdelistavros2970]

What does the axes mean between the skills in the rotation? Is that Light attack?

[@thecasual1011]

For your Stam rele/kinras (first parse) did you run 7 medium ?

[@RetiredDefender]

This really helped me! Thank you for these vids Skinny, you do good work!

[@skinnycheeks]

Thank you!

[@a1eszencia664]

Hi Skinny, what is that yellow cast bar mod called?

[@spirosdelistavros2970]

The little axes between the skills are they light attacks?

[@JK-pp2xl]

Great video, as always. There is always 1 missing piece for me, and that is how do you get your damage so high. You are about 40% higher than me when you mouseover your abilities. I use mother sorrow and war maiden. Thanks,.

[@hellstrike5366]

Trying to run a Stamplar versions since I have a golded out set of Deadly Strike body pieces available and using AY front bar with Velidreth. Not even coming close to maintaining the Ritual of Retribution and Blazing Spear combo on the backbar though. Anyone have any thoughts? If I swap out either one of those two skills for Carve I can maintain just fine but I'm not sure on the DPS loss there.

[@dboesclips3326]

So do we not use posions anymore? And just enchants?

[@kestenyi3873]

Any suggestions for plars who can't get a .05 jabs weave time? Asking for a friend. Ty as always Skinny, showed how to make plar keep up just fine.

[@maxcarnagexx7268]

What potions where you using in you magplar pares

[@jaimep.r5030]

I’m so confused, in minutes 57.54 how come your bottom bar switches? So you have 3 bars somhow?

[@spirosdelistavros2970]

Ive testen solar bulge and i realy do not like it what can i use instead?

[@D0pey.Pancake]

I love your content as always! Plz do NB next!

[@joshuablanchette878]

good on you for being comfortable with yourself to suggest people check out Deltia. he is a must for anyone getting into ESO

[@tylernienhuis8955]

What about healing mage set for are debuff. Thoughts?

[@Jawad-df7hm]

hello does the food and drinks buffs stack?

[@spirosdelistavros2970]

i "m trying to do the rotation of 12 sec but how do you sustain your stamina? i keep running out. do you use stamina potions to keep up? i dont see this in vid

[@skinnycheeks]

that rotation doesn't really work now. this was from the patch before they changed the ability timers

[@zperfectace]

Been enjoying your videos great job. I just recently got back to ESO and I was wondering as far as CP goes what would be the bare minimum in order for my dps to get close to 100k.

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks! Probably 200-300CP if you really had the rotation/setup down perfectly.

[@mikemiddleton3831]

Where would you slot deady on a magplar?

[@silentslayergaming8469]

I want to run 2h front bar Resto staff backbar. Any tips or advice? Magicka build?

[@stefansundquist]

Love you´r guides! Even I get a beter underständing on whats going on in the game and how to addapt to it. Keep up the god woork

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks!

[@dericseetoh2322]

First time viewer but very impressed! BTW, what addon are you using? I think the list you done was in 2019?

[@oyanduo5490]

So infused on jewelry is better for plars?

[@ziggystardust1973]

For solo runs, do you think the extra pen from potl would outperform the extra damage from purifying if you are stacking spell damage? Though the heal from purifying might actually be the deciding factor for solos

[@zeeejay]

Unfortunately not since potl scales exclusively with stam/wpd/wep crit/phys pen :( PL hits exceptionally hard and provides fantastic burst and as you said some healing as well.

[@oaksf9252]

Hey, I got a question, when I am running staves ( 3-4 aoe dots backbar ) is it better to frontbar inferno or lighting staff? Since jabs/sweeps is considered aoe damage?

[@skinnycheeks]

Depends what else you are running. If you add up all the single target dmg components, single target is normally still higher even in that setup. Seems weird but light attacks, potl/purifying, burning light, enchantments, status effects, etc. it all adds up. This could change next patch possibly with burning light and light attacks coming down a little

[@spirosdelistavros2970]

can you update or make a new video where the 12sec tortaion do work?

[@gnogz2668]

In the 12sec static rotation where you jab 5x. Do you light attack in between each jab? Or do you just jab 5x straight?

[@skinnycheeks]

Always light attack between each ability

[@Old_McGee]

Great Video.,i really enjoyed it. Thanks for the Work.

[@skinnycheeks]

Thanks!

[@BrutalDogFart]

Hi skinny I have made the build but I don’t understand 1 thing. Which is why am I using fire staff when all the abilities are aoe? Does fire staff hit harder??

[@skinnycheeks]

Video is a bit dated but essentially you'd usually want daggers on the front bar, but if you are going ranged you could do bow or fire staff front bar. for the back bar, the bonuses are only active while you are on that bar, so something like lightning doesn't have much benefit. and if you are going ranged, you usually have a more single target focused spam instead of jabs (also your execute is single target) so fire staff is usually better than lightning. However, if you ARE going with a heavy attack build, lightning is the far superior front bar option.

[@Faerk7]

Hello there! I have a question about the Power of the Light / Purifying Light skill didn't get fully hybridized: Until now, I was using spell damage on my Stmplar because of the Minor Sorcery buff provided by the Templar's passive; so I've tried changing one of my Spell jewel glyphs to a Weapon one and see if Power of the Light's damage (stamina moprh) was affected; It has decreased, which leads me to wonder if, as the rest of the skills since hybridization, the damage of this Skill varies according to your highest stat, regardless of whether it is Weapon or Spell even if it does physical damage, making it a fully hybrid skill. Did this change with the recent patches or am I missing something? Thanks a lot for this kind of breathtaking guides 💙

[@obey-cuh]

Yoo skinny is it infuse or bloodthirsty let me know cause it said when u did the dummy you show your gear it said infuse jewelry on your videos it said you recommended blood 30 so I'm a little confused

[@skinnycheeks]

Depends. My gear in this vid says infused or bloodthirsty though so I’m not sure what you mean

[@felzidf]

@Skinny Cheeks noob question here, for magicka templar, the main spamable is biting jams? or was only for the test to get more sustain?

[@skinnycheeks]

Mainly just a sustain thing. For most scenarios you’d probably stick with the mag version

[@ulisessepulveda207]

I don't really understand... how you can hit for about 13k with nerien'eth (on description) and in my character y only hit for 5,5k? I have golden weapon... i don't really understand why i lack so much on power :(

[@alxndrbrz]

Didnt find addons using, so tell me plz, how to monitor the 3 stacks of Carve in Fancy Action Bar, if it is that addon u using? Or maybe a shortlist of main addons, so i could look myself for settings that a prob missed!?

[@alxndrbrz]

I see Metronome here, Srendar, Greyskull, CMX. Uknown - Carve stack on Fancy!? Potion, and info near Stamina bar.

[@hansotto7219]

Could you please add a short video about how to do Trashfights and what to use / wear?

[@kaizenpsy8259]

Great guide! What is your opinion about the war maiden set? That’s what I am using at the moment together with deadly jewelry and weapons.

[@skinnycheeks]

It’s pretty good depending on your skill loadout

[@supertrexandroidx]

If you use a Deadly staff on front bar, are you replacing one of the monster pieces with a Deadly armor piece to get the 5th set bonus? Or using only four of one of the other main set...?

[@skinnycheeks]

Staves and other two handed weapons count as 2 set pieces

[@joshuamoore743]

Good shoutout man

[@MrThemasterhimself]

Hey what’s up, For the stamina variant, can I use a maul instead of the great sword on the back bar For extra penetration?

[@skinnycheeks]

If you are under the cap sure, though you’ll generally want to build in a way that isn’t more pen on your backbar than your front bar

[@mist5350]

I’m running bahsai deadly kilt and slimecraw with the same skills as your parse with that but I can’t seem to hit over 100k with it

[@AllThingsFascinate]

So. . .How did the massive jabs nerf effect all this?

[@Weabooie]

How’s magblade dps holding up in this patch?

[@fortinbraxx7249]

very nice build, but I have a problem to lightatack after Stampede,is there a optimal range to stand and while Parsing?

[@skinnycheeks]

That’s why I usually always pair a backbar skill with it. But you can also do a little wiggle forward or backward before each cast of stampede and it won’t grey your bars out

[@PatentlyAwesome]

Hey Skinny, why do you put a weapon damage glyph on your back bar weapon exclusively? I would have thought that you would want that glyph to match whatever you put on your jewelry. And given the minor sorcery buff, I was thinking that even a stamplar would want to spec into spell damage now.

[@zodiac_rvk6845]

The weapon enchanment is different than the jewelry ones although they have the same name It grants you both spell dmg and weapon dmg

[@user-oe2uu8ez7i]

Hello. Dressed exactly the same, but no ult from the Mages Guild. 91000 goes into the doll and nothing else... What am I doing wrong?

[@skinnycheeks]

Hard to say. There could be so many possible things. Lots of little things add up

[@ll-of8no]

Yo, I’m running Kjalnars nightmare and am wondering if weaving lights with the jabs still procs the aedric spear passive “BURNING LIGHT”.

[@skinnycheeks]

Your light attacks don’t proc it. Your jabs do though.

[@joshuabuckley5607]

What UI are you using? i have always had bandit but, i like how you can see both bars instead of just seeing a number indicating how long i have at the top

[@RobertHoefig]

The Addon is called "Fancy Action Bar".

[@bongolix]

Thx for this very detailed guide. Is there any specific reason, why more and more Meta builds use 2h on backbar instead of vMA bow as all the time before?

[@skinnycheeks]

Simply stronger. Vma bow is still more than viable but the 2h has the higher ceiling at the cost of forcing you to charge into melee

[@Lyolik-UA]

Hello. Thanks for the video. Can you make a review for a templar with 1-bar

[@user-oe2uu8ez7i]

Hello. Which addon tracks your set buffs near the attribute bar?
