Introduction

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

The Stamina Templar Build PvP “Abyss” is made for Cyrodiil and Battlegrounds. The setup is really tanky and focuses on burst damage, fully buffed we sit at almost 6500 Weapon damage and a lot of penetration to destroy enemies.

To achieve this, we use three sets that focus on stacking damage, Clever Alchemist, New Moon Acolyte and Balorgh. In addition, we also use Spectral Cloak on the backbar in combination with Quick Cloak to increase our damage once again and also increase our damage mitigation. When we activate Quick Cloak we also gain 30% speed buff for a short duration.

• Cyrodiil & Battlegrounds
• Heavy Armor 2H/ Dual Wield Setup
• Crazy Burst Damage
• Crazy High Mobility
• Strong Healing
• Good Sustain

Resource Management

The Restoring Focus has to always be active to increase your Stamina return and resistances. It has a 20 second duration so it is fairly easy to keep up.

Repentance can be used to drain dead bodies to get a huge Stamina and Health boost and it is free of cost.

Heavy Attacks are a great tool to regain resources too, every time you do a Heavy Attack you regain around 3000 Stamina.

Potions are another great way to restore resources, once you activate the potion you regain around 7500 Stamina and 9000 Health, if you use the potion I recommend in the potion section of the build.

• Restoring Focus
• Repentance
• Heavy Attacks
• Potions

Our built in sustain comes from the Lava Foot Soup-and-Saltrice buff food in addition with 1 Stamina Recovery glyph on the jewelry. If you feel like you need more sustain, you can also add more Recovery glyphs on the jewelry.

Important Info for Stamina Templar Build PvP

Buff-food

For this setup we are using the Lava Foot Soup and Saltrice buff food. This will boost our max Stamina and Stamina Recovery by a lot for this setup. You can buy this food for a cheap price in the guildstores.

(Max Stamina, Stamina Recovery)

Mundus Stone

To boost our damage even further, we are going to use the Warrior Mundus Stone for extra Weapon Damage. However, you can choose pretty much any Mundus Stone that you like.

Race

You can take a look at all the racial passives if yo want. All stamina based races will work with this setup but overall I prefer Nord because the race gives the best overall stats and extra ultimate regen on top of that.

In Battlegrounds Champion Points are deactivated, therefore we need to focus more on sustain than before. We are changing our Weapon Damage enchants out with more sustain glyphs on the jewelry.
