My favorite channel, the Templar is a great character, it's a shame they've forgotten him, thanks for such a nice explanation to understand, it was not necessary to study nuclear science to understand the video, as with other content creators.

[@jonesfps6726]

Templar passives definetly need an update. In general templar needs some adjustments, especially the jabs need their old animation.

[@NinjaPulls]

I also prefer the old animation. But I think it’s safe to say that ain’t happening!

[@dix_neuf]

they had to cut the jabs animation to make it align with the global cooldown. it would have been nice to retain some of the power lost from the cut animation but here we are.

[@jonesfps6726]

@@dix_neuf they could have adjusted the old one to the GCD, No need for a new janky noodle wiggle.

[@puertoricanpapi1356]

The fact is Templars are the most neglected class in the game. They are supposed to be holy knights who heal and do damage with the power of sunlight. We should have a 10% healing done passive and 15% spell/weapon damage passive. In addition to that we should have both passives more max magicka by 3000 and magicka recovery by 300. We are basically supposed to be sun touched magical knights. Just like dragon knights have unlimited protection healing and damage he we should get the same since we are their counterparts. Sorcerers should have their shields cut in half and double the cost making them 6k a cast so those scrubs cannot spam shield and be unkillable even though they are wearing light armor.

[@dix_neuf]

@@jonesfps6726 oh I agree absolutely. That last jab of the animation makes the whole thing look floppy. Reminds me of the wiggly pencil optical illusion we did when we were kids

[@bigshun4301]

i just came back to ESO and you explain everything very well thanks great content !

[@evilpac2327]

Im starting in eso and been watching a bunch of videos to get to know a bit more about the classes. Yours are among the best, I can understand quite simply without going insane lol. Still not sure what class to play, torn wetbeen nblade and templar, but at least im informed.

[@NinjaPulls]

Awesome, thank you for the kind words! Nightblade and Templar LOOK very different but they're both great - probably my two favourites.

[@Sam118mate]

Hey man, love your channel and in depth analysis. You really go above and beyond to bring the data crunching to a basic level for anyone to understand. Amazing work! Please do continue ❤️

[@k-3402]

I love magplar for 4-man content. It straight up tears through enemies while providing decent utility for the group 🤘

[@zombiecrow92]

Absolutely amazing video as always ! Whenever I see a new player in game asking for builds , I instantly link your channel, great info and asmr voice :D !

[@NinjaPulls]

Much appreciated!

[@criKriek951]

Thank you for all the ''ultimate guide'' videos. Its very clear and so helpfull. Motivation is coming again! ❤

That’s awesome! Thank you very much. I appreciate the kind words.

[@wdeemarwdeemar8739]

Nice work!

[@robertrjackson]

This video is excellent. Thank you. usually do randoms just use one bar because I don't need more than 30-40K dps, but this is very helpful.

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks for the awesome comment - appreciate it!

[@merpins]

Personally, as a DPS, I still like War Maiden's with magplar. Paried with a proc set, or even just with deadly and velothi, it's pretty potent, and not a huge difference in dps.

[@andrewmicallef9679]

Quality content 👨‍🍳😘👌♥️

[@KountKristyl]

I've watched all these guides so far and they've been incredibly useful to me as someone just starting to dig into the nuances of ESO's combat. That said, I find it a little boring that the exact same "neutral" abilities keep turning up if there isn't a class specific one to replace them (caltrops, dawnbringer, etc)

[@TheShnax]

I used to slot Focused Charge in vMA in the ice arena to get to the troll and in the poison arena to get to the casters in the corners. Dropped it at some point, when I had a better feeling for the rhythm of the fights, but helped quite a bit in the beginning.

[@hxppy_snek]

never forget what they took from us when they changed the jabs animation

[@SKingA803]

Awesome video man, love your content. Can we get one of these for the magicka nightblade?? Thanks!

[@NinjaPulls]

You're in luck - I already did Nightblade a few weeks ago! Here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGnCqp6JoK6WY6c

[@sleeevz]

the magicka trash setup on the chart shows 7 pcs of sul-xan. With BSW back bar, you could do front bar sul-xan/full monster set/1 pc trainee or Druid’s, or instead, an arena front bar- perhaps an oversight there? Having said that, I’ve enjoyed your videos so thx!

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah, absolutely right there’s supposed to be a monster set there. Wardrobe malfunction I guess - I’ll see if I can fix it but either way there’s more Templar stuff coming soon where I’ll cover setups in a bit more detail.

[@gianturtlecow1455]

Love the detail, do you make solo builds as well or only dps group builds?

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks for the comment! Solo builds are quite a personal thing, so I don’t usually make em, but I’m always happy to share what I’m running in different places.

[@OrionlinkGLPlus]

Hey thank you! im trying to build a range dps magplar but i can't finde a range spammeable, do you have any suggestions?

[@NinjaPulls]

Blazing Spear is pretty great but it's SUPER hard to sustain. You can try Elemental Weapon or Crushing Shock, but ultimately Templars shine in melee range.

[@OrionlinkGLPlus]

@NinjaPulls thank you!

[@Joseph-yq6hc]

Great video and I have recently become a fan of your content. Unfortunately, as a Templar main since Murkmire the Templar has felt deficient since update 35. Yes, on paper its dps is comparable to many other classes however it is all backloaded from execute. For a solo/small group PVE experience this is not conducive. Please ZOS, adjust beam and return power to jabs/sweeps!

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks for the kind words! I must admit I’ve been surprised to see a few comments like this. Sure, Arcanist and Dragonknight are still ruling the roost, but in my experience Templar is still performing very well. That execute in particular often becomes a LOT more powerful in content than it looks on the dummy. I agree that some tweaks/improvements could definitely be made, but don’t lose hope! Templar is still really good!

[@vossboss220]

Ah yes finally the real DPS beam

[@Wylyth-nr3hq]

Do you think when you are done with the Class Guides could you also do Deep Dives into stuff like Vampire, Werewolf, Fighter's Guild, Mage's Guild, and Psijic Order skill lines?

[@NinjaPulls]

Yes! Lots more stuff in the way!

[@andrewmicallef9679]

Man i really want to love the templar, but its kit needs some love. Power creep is real and templar is lagging behind

[@christinejones6277]

...Wondering if I've just missed it or is there not a Warden Damage Explained video yet? I know they're really considered a support class mostly, but I'd like to be able to put something viable together for my (supposed to be) Stamden DD.

[@NinjaPulls]

Warden video is coming out next! 🥳

[@christinejones6277]

[@wildux8221]

[@DemonRazor88]

Will you do a PvP Templar guide at some point ?

[@NinjaPulls]

Sorry, probably not. I love PvP but I won't make a guide about anything unless I have a LOT of experience in that area. Too many bad/misleading videos out there already!

[@DemonRazor88]

@@NinjaPulls But..but your guide videos have such high quality,and...and you are so good at explaining things,that even my potato brain can comprehend what you're explaining . I've only gotten into the game recently. Since then I have been attempting to learn all I can to not be a burden on my team .

[@Niklas-d9y]

Which Class would be better for a beginner to go with can’t decide between Sorcerer (Stam) or Templar (Stam)

[@NinjaPulls]

Hmm good question. Sorcerer is definitely a little easier to learn, but Templar has that execute which is SO fun once you get the hang of it. Maybe Sorc first, Plar later? But whatever you decide, have fun!

[@cmlaurx4471]

I noticed that your setup doesn't include a complete set of BSW. Was that intentional, or was it a small oversight? By the way, great content!

[@NinjaPulls]

Thank you very much for your kind words!!! I am wearing five piece BSW in both setups…

[@donsolo8692]

Are we ever getting a Warden DPS guide?

[@NinjaPulls]

Maybe. If you ask nicely.

[@donsolo8692]

@@NinjaPullscould you please do a Warden DPS guide if you find the time? Your videos are the best I have seen when it comes to breaking down the classes. I just came back to ESO a few weeks ago after quitting in 2018 and I would love a guide on my main class.

[@Sam118mate]

@NinjaPulls if it’s not too much trouble, can you showcase the difference in dps between bis trial gear and crafted alternatives? Is the gap really that big between crafted sets orders wrath and Hundings/Julianos vs meta sets like relequen, pillar of nirn or are we only talking like 10% or less? Much appreciated

[@NinjaPulls]

Hey there! Most of the best gear sets work situationally, so their power is dependent on that. The differences between trial sets and crafted sets ARE significant, but not massive. We're talking 10-15% as you said. DPS is mostly down to player execution. But this begs the question: if you're trying to do your best rotation, why not use the best setup? It's free damage. Trial gear is also easier to collect than you might think. The main difficulty is finding a group of decent people - feel free to join the Ninja Pulls Discord if you want more tips or wanna join some teaching trials with us. Good luck and thanks for the kind words!

whats the yellow effects on your character from?

[@NinjaPulls]

Those are the visual effects from the two Templar sets in Infinite Archive. Thanks for noticing!

[@Grymlock]

Honestly I'm really looking forward to the day 2h is no longer a back bar weapon it's never felt right I miss staves and bows. Jusy my opinion on it. I love all the eso classes but anymore arcanist aside they all seem so cookie cutter

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah, I hear this complaint a lot and although the cheeky part of me wants to say "get over it" 😜, I prefer to be helpful so I'm gonna say that Inferno and Bow back bars both work really well. Magicka sustain is one reason why 2H and Bow often work better, and there is a bizarre backlash against melee weapons amongst much of the ESO community which makes no sense at all. But ultimately there IS a lot of flexibility and it's not as cookie cutter as it might first appear. Hope that was helpful - happy hunting!

[@Grymlock]

@NinjaPulls for me it's athstetic it just doesn't feel right to me. Just an opinion but I get it probably irks hearing it all that time.

[@TheShnax]

@@Grymlock I agree. A big two-hander just screams "here comes the main weapon". But as it is outclassed on the front-bar and Uppercut is no fun anyway, I take it as a good back-bar option.

[@taylortheimpalor7991]

I dont really know where else to ask this, Would it be possible to run a build that uses no magic. As in nothing that has a noticeable magical effect. Im trying to create a stereotypical dnd style fighter just for the hell of it really Could this be done? Could it be even somewhat effective? Im thinking one handed and shield and. Idk bow or greatsword for the backbar? I dont know a lot about the game but most the classes dont appeal to me immensely and the ones that do ive already got characters of them. Even if the ability costs magicka thats fine so long as it doesnt look magical or ritualistic. Obviously you can just run weapon skills but what the hell can you do about self healing? Idk all the skill lines by heart so im not sure

[@NinjaPulls]

That is tough. You can join our Discord if you wanna get some ideas there, although most of the advice players tend to give is about optimising damage, not roleplaying. But yes, this would be possible so long as you're not attempting very difficult content. Sword and Shield is not good for damage though, so I'd recommend Bow or Dual Wield instead. However, I gotta say that many of the Stamina abilities DO have a magical 'feel', such as Volley, where you fire one arrow into the air and dozens more rain down on the enemy, or Blade Cloak, Stampede etc. I don't know if that's an issue for you, but if so then you'll find it even more difficult. As for healing, you could use a set like Briarheart and the Reaving Blows Champion Point instead of actual abilities. The healing would still be, well... magical but at least you won't SEE it! Hope that helps - like I said feel free to DM me in the guild Discord, and happy hunting.

​@@puertoricanpapi1356 To be fair, putting 'Damage' in the title and 'DPS' on the thumbnail make it abundantly clear that this is NOT a PvP guide.

​@puertoricanpapi1356 nah bro, I main Magplar in Cyro and I 1vX so you're looking at more of an issue with setup or you're playing against the tanky healbots and not setup for that. Still setup. Or maybe you've not mastered Plar yet.

So many good skills to add the taunt for themplar and they put it in one of the worst ones. I mean, for fox sake, Dark Flare is basically PvP exclusive. Unstable Core? No one EVER uses it. They both could use chenges for PvE, and this could be it. Such a B.S.

I'm new and play a templar it's so hard to figure out the direction to go in this game.

[@eget4144]

7:10 when people who dimake guides make are totaly oblivious it annoys me. Jab's single target damage is on par with 2h and dw spammables (so high end spammable damage). Also jabs aoe component is on par with all of the class aoe spammables. So jabs is both single target and aoe spammable in one skill. I dont get how a guide maker can pass on this fundemental part of the class.

[@NinjaPulls]

You need to pay better attention. A pure AOE ability is something like Fatecarver, Pulsar, Cleave etc. which hits all targets for an equal amount. Read the tooltip for Puncturing Strikes and you will see that this is NOT how the Templar spammable works. This is exactly what I say in the video and I don't see how you could fail to understand it. Ninja Pulls is actually one of the few sources of info for ESO where we genuinely test what we say, and will even issue retractions if we get something wrong. Believe me there are VERY few who do this, so please do the same before making comments like this.

Ideally you wanna swap setups between boss fights and trash fights, but yeah if you're on console you may just wanna grab gear that works in ALL fights and just swap your spammable. Hope that helps.
