Thank you very much for this guide!! Very well done and it’s cool you explained how you made the build, and how to play it! Looking forward to your next video!
Just built this and am going through the levels. Sustain is hard during the first few levels - but it does get easier. I will train with this and see how far I get. It IS fun to play!
Awesome Pike, I am glad you like it! Try out Ghastly Eye Bowls food and then the Siphoning Spells CP slottable in the red tree. That should solve any add stage sustain issues and most bosses. You may have to work in a heavy here and there but that should mostly take care of it for you.
It's one of the new visions. I don't actually recommend it currently if you are using Wield Soul as a shield, it will take it from you and it can cause some unexpected deaths. If you are using Oakensoul it doesnt have a ton of benefit unless you can get 3 of them (which can be a heavy commitment vs. other visions) to get the Minor Toughness buff (for non-wardens), other than randomly tanking a mob for you. The actual damage it does is mostly negligible.
Templars typically are a little rough with 1 bar in pvp. They just lack some tools that other classes have to make it viable, however, I have this build here which has performed really well in a 75% healer 25% damage role: ua-cam.com/video/WDaq9PIsBAU/v-deo.html Take note of the pinned comment.
go in stage 1 vamp and then pop corrupting to up vamp level when you have what you need to offset increased cost. Eat actual food after vamp level raised. Might be a slight waste, but there's plenty of contingencies built into good IA builds
Hi there! Tanking is the one combat area in ESO I have exactly zero experience in haha. It's kind of a meme on stream now. To this day, I still have not tanked a single thing a single time after 10k hours. Someone asked this same question last week on stream and I asked a trial main tank buddy what he thought, and his exact words were, "probably." I know that's not helpful at all, but I genuinely have no idea. I don't want to give you bad info.
Oh nice, I've only used my templar lately for picking flowers... I should dust it off and try this out. How would Breton be? I like her current appearance and don't really want to change race, although if I have to I'd only want it to be another human race.
You should only need to race change if you have an interest in hitting high Arcs (8, 9, 10+). I would play it for a bit and make sure it's something you really enjoy and want to spend a good amount of time on trying to push high with before spending money. Most people arent really pushing beyond Arc 6 or so (bit of a generalization there, that could even be a lower Arc), mainly due to the time investment it takes to do it.
During the example at the end, how are you keeping up Ele Sus status effects on that many targets so you can use your Jabs without using Serpent's Disdain? When running this recently, I found myself just spamming Ele Sus constantly over and over since it dropped off so fast. Also it seems like you are spamming and not light weaving, is that correct?
@@Dooma Yeah, I caught that part and why I was asking for AOE pack damage since it seems like for Single Target you can do that weaving, but for AOE packs you cant do that since it wears off so quickly. If looking for just the debuff on the group, wouldnt caltrops be better? Or is there something I am missing with the status effect for Ele Sus in IA without Serpents extension?
@@xychogaming Ah gotchya. This build is just demonstrating there are lots of ways to do it. Every build in the game you can start shaving things off and eventually get back full circle to ‘all roads lead to meta.” Are there ways to generate more damage. Yes. Are there ways to mitigate more damage. Yes. This is a flow back and forth between ele sus and jabbing for a mix of burning + overcharged + jabs heals just to give people something different to play than the usual 2-3 rigid paths to get to upper arcs with 1 bar. That said, ele sus applies burning for 4 seconds, every 7.5 seconds. On a full duration ele sus without reapplying it, that’s ~53% uptime (taken from the dummy). So even if you tapped each mob one time then forgot about it, you are still also getting a tremendous amount of burning damage over the course of the stages (you are getting a higher % up time just generally by reapply it randomly throughout its duration. You get some overlap, it’s worth the global either way as the concussion + chilled from ele sus is also solid damage after a few focused efforts. The jabs addition is totally unnecessary and just a fun way to mix it up with a more melee play style, that is also effective enough to get you to upper arcs. It’s also not an exact science breaking it down perfectly in packs, there’s no time for it. If you prefer the serpents disdain and Ice staff heavy attack kite route, that works totally fine as well (it’s what the last version of this build is and a few other classes on the channel now for this ia season.) The little gameplay clip at the end where I break it down in sections with the explanation of what’s going on explains how it all works together. That same way I did that stage, I did mostly exactly the same across the board with the exception of focusing specific mobs down fast like Mystics and what not. I hope this helps make sense of it some and give you some options to move things around for what works best for you and what you enjoy.
Hi there! Always Focused Efforts #1. It's the centerpiece to the entire content. After that, much of the juicy stuff are tied to Atronachs such as Scorching Support from the Fire Atro, Ferocious Support from the Werewolf, The new undead Atro has one that gives all resources when any mobs die, thats super helpful etc. Tha same atro has a +20% magic damage vision which is very helpful for this specific build. 1 Prickly Retort is good (no need to stack them if pushing high. If not pushing high, stacking them is strong. Reason being, you are after sundered status effect when pushing high, when in lower arcs with focused efforts, the raw damage from the vision is very strong, but falls off entirely in late arcs vs. its status effect). 1 Resolute Mind (may have said that wrong) is good. The one where when you break cc you get all 3 resources back. That is helpful for recovering when cc'd. The health increase is super valuable as well for upper arcs and borderline necessary. I also like to get 1-2 stamina recovery visions typically for upper arcs (you are going to be cartwheeling all over the place haha. The extra stam recovery there goes a long way). That should get you started with some ideas and thank you for watching!
@Dooma thanks you. I just finished farming both Templar sets, your build helped me so much, finally got to the final form for the Dragon Boss 😊, wanted to ask would this build also work on a NB..? going farm the new sets..
It's really amazing to see how your builds have evolved with the game and how far you can get soloing. I've seen a bunch of posts saying arc 12 and so on, but they are two players (didn't mention in the post) I also enjoy the flexibility and ease of running your builds. Earlier today I was in IA with someone that sent me your way and after the dragon neither one of us had a focus and it was teeth grinding. I haven't played my Templar in ages and I guess tomorrow I'll be blowing off the dust . Question after your break and after your list of things to do, (it's awesome work) can you suggest a 1 or 2 bar build for IA that would support one of your builds. DPS, some heals and de buffs. My initial thought was Warden: fissure, swarm, revenge and dive are sold damage, debuff starts. Ty again, enjoy your break, looking forward to what's next.
Thank you for the kind words Bill, I appreciate that. I am genuinely glad you are enjoying the builds so much. That's what it's all about right there. 🙏 Ideally for any duo (to go far) you want one as a tank providing specific things. Let me give you Hyperioxes' guide. He's the current world record for IA in both solo and duo with this build (he's since updated it, but I don't think he has it on UA-cam yet. This will at least point you in a direction) ua-cam.com/video/Ytwr7aEdOPg/v-deo.html&t Check out his stream on twitch sometime as well. He streams his super high arc runs as well. I was watching him the other day in Arc 16 solo. Wild stuff haha. Super talented dude.
@@Dooma ty Dooma. Earlier I built the Templar and it's interesting and I'll tinker more with it tomorrow. That DK build is a tad overkill for me cause I lack the time to go in that far, but I got a few ideas from it so ty... I also see what you mean about the Nord.. ty again and for those wanting to build the Templar it's fun, just keep your shield bubble up .. 👍🥃😁
Could you recommend the ultimate if I did not want use vampire please an thank you i've done 10 so far for archive and they're very good. I just need to do 4 dk .4 sorcerer an nightblade ❤
Sure thing! Check out the 11:06 timestamp of the previous version (which still works btw if you prefer a non-melee/jabs set up). I go over a couple of options for specifically Templar class ultimates: ua-cam.com/video/rqHUtgbQCAk/v-deo.html&t
Have you thought about the set Symmetry of the Weald for this? Might be good offensive/defensive with status effects and healing in mind? I’ve been trying to figure out where this set would be good.
Hi Nartsv! I was messing around with it a bit on a couple other set ups a while ago. Truthfully, I haven't given it near enough attention as it probably deserves. This build is kind of a weird outlier build using the light armor piece. Previously, I almost never entertained using a light piece (other than the Scuffed Sorc) due to how difficult it makes hitting resist cap, but this build has changed my thinking a bit. I appreciate this comment, it put it back on the radar for me. 🙏
@@Dooma maybe heartland and Weald together would be a crazy status effect build. I think any skill that hits multiple times a second would slap with focused efforts and stupid high status effect chance. Fatecarver comes to mind with arc’s boosted status damage. Or a 2 bar setup running a lot of 1 second or faster ticking dots (caltrops, orb, necro tether, etc)
@@Nartsv Heartland and Weald is exactly what I was thinking as well haha. I think I am going to try that on Scuffed Sorc on the PTS when I get back to stream next week'ish. There is definitely something great in that combo somewhere. Even this one honestly like you said may be great. I think I am going to try that as well just to see what it's doing compared to all my logs from War Maiden runs. Good stuff!
@@Nartsvdiminishing returns with heartland/weald. With charged heartland alone, you are proccing status every strike, in fact, you're extremely unlucky if anything doesn't proc status on that setup. That said, symmetry of the weald is a banging archive set and charged weald would be the same. Just don't combine the two, more effective ways to use your second set
As a former Infantry Marine who attended 7 different training programs with our wonderful soldiers, I have to agree elementary school was the theme for sure. Wink😂
Hi there! That can work for a while but will eventually fall off in IA. IA is designed around status effects. That's the core of the content, and more specifically the vision Focused Efforts to strengthen them by 500% per FE stack. That said, if you don't have a build to capitalize on that, you'll end up very limited after a certain point and things will end up a tremendous slog. That's why you see things like Heartland Conquerer on such a large amount of builds designed to push far, as its one of the best status effect generators making your charged trait 470%. If you meant for non-ia content, then I would say for sure give that combo a shot. It may be awesome, but I havent personally tried it out to know for sure or not. If you try it out, I would be interested to know how it worked for you! 🙏
Curious, why poison on the staff? After thinking about it, no other source of poison so it’s a free damage source where anything else would be doubling down on that source.
Definitely worth a try to see some numbers. The other thing to be aware of that I didn't discuss in the video is the extra sd affecting your status effects. I'm not sure where the scales tip there without trying that out myself. I do think there are lots of options that are viable though. I've been messing with all sorts of weird Heartland + X combos across the classes that have been working well.
Hi there! I would add this to the back bar for sure: ua-cam.com/video/67L_c6eUzl0/v-deo.html Everything else around it I would have to spend some time play testing to know for sure.
I got the build done (pretty easy)... so far seems fine for stuff like that but the DPS rate isn't super high. But, very tough and hard to kill. I may want to tweak it some for more damage and less survivability if I'm not doing hard content. I even tried it briefly in Cyrodiil even though it isn't PVP... so far is tough to kill if just 1v1.
I dont recommend any of the IA builds really for non-IA content. It's extremely overkill defensively and has very little damage. They are designed for the Visions within IA, without them, you are basically playing a watered down tank. By the time you make all the changes necessary to make it relevant outside of the IA, you would have saved more time/resources just by swapping to a different build. There are other non-IA solo builds on the channel/website. If you click "ONE BAR SOLO" under "PVE" then scroll down just past the Infinite Archive solo build, you will see a "Two Button" solo build. You sound like you don't need that level of accommodated/adaptive build, but there is some good info in there for you to use as a starting point such as gear, ability, and cp alternatives: www.thegameroom.tv/templar-builds
Only problem I'm having is relying on the focused efforts. As in they're just not dropping for me. I'm on PS5 and we just got the update last Wednesday and I've ran it everyday. Doing up until the 5th arc and for 4 or the 5 days I didn't get a single FE. The only day I did get it I got 4. Kinda an all or nothing type deal.
Hi there Dennis! I feel you there man. It's feast or famine. Unfortunately, there is no way around it. I had a perfect run going on stream today and only have 1 FE at Arc 6 and decided to call it due to it about to turn into a huge slog. My personal line for them is 1 by Arc 3 and 2 by 5. Honestly sometimes I go for 2 by 4. If it doesnt happen, I reset. If you are hustling you can clear Arc 1-3 in about 30 minutes. After Arc 3 it starts to ramp up in how long it takes to get through each stage so not having 1 by then can get pretty miserable depending on the build. You can certainly do it without them up to a point, but as you have seen, there is a line where it's just not really worth it. I suggest establishing that line for you (whatever makes sense for your personal game time you have available) and then stick to it. Ive been in that slippery slope countless times going "1 more stage" "1 more stage" "1 more stage" and I blink and I have wasted 2 hours clearing 1/4th the amount of bosses I could have compared to a reset.
Hi Oliver! You can make it work without scribing, just a bit less effective. You can add green Vigor in place of Contingency and then Living Dark in place of Soul Ward.

13:00 Where does the FRIENDLY "Apocryphal Harbinger" come from ??
It's one of the new visions. I don't actually recommend it currently if you are using Wield Soul as a shield, it will take it from you and it can cause some unexpected deaths. If you are using Oakensoul it doesnt have a ton of benefit unless you can get 3 of them (which can be a heavy commitment vs. other visions) to get the Minor Toughness buff (for non-wardens), other than randomly tanking a mob for you. The actual damage it does is mostly negligible.

There are other non-IA solo builds on the channel/website. If you click "ONE BAR SOLO" under "PVE" then scroll down just past the Infinite Archive solo build, you will see a "Two Button" solo build. You sound like you don't need that level of accommodated/adaptive build, but there is some good info in there for you to use as a starting point such as gear, ability, and cp alternatives: www.thegameroom.tv/templar-builds
@@Dooma Thanks I'll check out your 2-button build, that looked interesting. I'll eventually try IA again, so it will come in useful.
Only problem I'm having is relying on the focused efforts. As in they're just not dropping for me. I'm on PS5 and we just got the update last Wednesday and I've ran it everyday. Doing up until the 5th arc and for 4 or the 5 days I didn't get a single FE. The only day I did get it I got 4. Kinda an all or nothing type deal.
Hi there Dennis! I feel you there man. It's feast or famine. Unfortunately, there is no way around it. I had a perfect run going on stream today and only have 1 FE at Arc 6 and decided to call it due to it about to turn into a huge slog. My personal line for them is 1 by Arc 3 and 2 by 5. Honestly sometimes I go for 2 by 4. If it doesnt happen, I reset. If you are hustling you can clear Arc 1-3 in about 30 minutes. After Arc 3 it starts to ramp up in how long it takes to get through each stage so not having 1 by then can get pretty miserable depending on the build. You can certainly do it without them up to a point, but as you have seen, there is a line where it's just not really worth it. I suggest establishing that line for you (whatever makes sense for your personal game time you have available) and then stick to it. Ive been in that slippery slope countless times going "1 more stage" "1 more stage" "1 more stage" and I blink and I have wasted 2 hours clearing 1/4th the amount of bosses I could have compared to a reset.
Very interesting build! Please tag a comment about what you've changed about this build after you've tried it on stream.
Thank you! I will try to remember that but for sure the written guide will reflect any changes in the future.
Whithout scribing skills its possible? Great video ❤
Hi Oliver! You can make it work without scribing, just a bit less effective. You can add green Vigor in place of Contingency and then Living Dark in place of Soul Ward.
Not up on scribing. Could you break down the 2 skills that are scribed
Hi there! There is a section in the video at 7:03 breaking it down for you and there is an additional short video linked in that section breaking it down further ( ua-cam.com/video/hT4xOfl_jxE/v-deo.html&t ).
@@Dooma your awesome! Thank you
@@KennyPerry-t6w You are very welcome!
Guys, do someone know sets that give you some sort of damage aura, just like Overwhelming Surge?
I think overwhelming is unique, can't think of a variant that is similar
Just use overwhelming, it rocks
Hi there! Here is a useful site you may be interested in. ESO-HUB has a set library that makes it really easy finding what you are looking for with drop down menus and whatnot: eso-hub.com/en/sets
I dono if im blind but does written guide for this not show passives?
Hi there! Check out #4 here for some context on passives: www.thegameroom.tv/build-faq
TY
You are very welcome!
Thank you!
Thank you so much DKY and you are very welcome! 🙏
I just tried to join your discord with the link in the video, and it said it wasn't valid anymore
Thank you for the heads up, I need to remove those links. We closed out Discord from public access a little while ago. There is some info on it here (See #1) and options to join: www.thegameroom.tv/build-faq
