Introduction

Welcome to the Magicka Templar Damage PvP Build “Blazeplar” for Elder Scrolls Online. Make sure to bookmark the link as I will keep updating the build for each new Update of ESO.

This build is optimized for Cyrodiil and Battlegrounds. We are using Shacklebreaker, Bright-Throat’s Boast and Valkyn Skoria in combination with a drink to boost our Bright Throats set. Those sets will give us overall very good stats for all three resources and will make it easier to sustain and manage your stamina to CC break.

The setup has very good AoE and Single Target damage and can pretty much obliterate any setup. We also do have very strong healing power which can help us a lot. If you want you can choose another Monster Set, Valkyn is my favorite because it deals a lot of damage and gives extra health, but pretty much every Monster Set will work.

Our S&B Bar is for defensive situations whereas our Destruction Staff bar is for offensive situations.

• Cyrodiil & Battlegrounds
• Heavy Armor S&B + Destro
• Tanky setup
• Strong Healing
• High Damage
• Good Sustain

Resource Management

Channeled Focus is your main resource for magicka, make sure to keep it up a 100% of the time, it also gives you a lot of resistances which makes you tankier.

Tri-Stat Potions are also very important, they can save you because they give a lot of health, magicka and stamina back with one button press. Make sure to save the potion for tough situations. Magicka Recovery Glyphs give us better sustain too.

You can also also do heavy attacks on your Shock Staff, they deal nice damage because we have an infused Shock Damage Glyph on there and can not be dodge rolled and because we are in heavy armor, they restore 25% more magicka then normal heavy attacks.

• Channeled Focus
• Potions (Tri-Stat)
• Magicka Recovery Glyphs
• Heavy Attacks with Shock Staff

In case you struggle with sustain, you can always swap to the Atronach Mundus Stone which increases your Magicka Recovery.

Cyrodiil Setup

5x Shacklebreaker, 5x Bright-Throat’s Boast, 2x Valkyn Skoria on a High Elf with Corrupted Bloody Mara Drink buff food.

• Unbuffed: Out of combat, buff food active.

Skills

Skill Info

• Radiant Glory: Your execute ability, deals a lot of damage and heals you.
• Purifying Light: Apply this to stack up a lot of damage that explodes at the end of the duration.
• Puncturing Sweeps: One of our strong AoE attacks that heal us while we deal damage.
• Degeneration: Very strong single target damage and gives you Major Sorcerery.
• Toppling Charge: Your gap closer, also sets the enemy off-balance.
• Crescent Sweep: This is your offensive ultimate, very cheap cost and deals good damage but you have to be close to the enemy.
• Living Dark: Very powerful heal that you should always keep on you while you are under pressure.
• Ritual of Retribution: Cleanses debuffs, and deals damage.
• Honor the Dead: This heals for a lot and if we heal someone below 75% health we will get 60% of the cost back! Just keep in mind spamming this will consume a lot of your magicka, so be careful.
• Reflective Light: Gives you Major Prophecy and also applies a damage over time effect on the enemy.
• Channeled Focus: Needs to be on the ground all the times because it gives you the spell and physical resistance buff and also increases your magicka sustain.
• Spell Wall: If you are under high pressure, activate this, it will give you permablock for a few seconds and you will have time to recover.

Make sure to always weave Light Attacks between your abilities, you can find a guide here: “Weaving Beginner Guide”.

Below you can find the Champion Points setup for this build. Work your way from top to bottom in your allocation. For more information on Champion Points, please visit the Champion Points Overview Page on ESO-Hub.com.

Important:

• Warfare Tree: This tree gives you a mix between damage, healing and damage mitigation.
• Fitness Tree: This tree gives you extra health, sustain and defensive buffs.
