Build Setup – Stamina Templar Build

Let’s take a look at the Stamina Templar Build. Below you will find things like Sets, Skills, Champion Points, Buff-food, Mundus Stone, Potions, Passives and Attributes. These are all important aspects of the Stamina Templar Build.

5x Pillar of Nirn, 5x Perf. Relequen, 1x Slimecraw, 1x Harpooner’s Kilt on a Dark Elf with Lava Foot Soup and Saltrice buff food.

Unbuffed: Out of combat, buff food, Major Savagery active.
Buffed: In combat, raid target dummy buffs, weapon power potion, Harpooner’s Kilt, weapon damage enchantment active.

Gear for the Stamina Templar Build

You will find 3 different setups here. Setup 1 is the preferred setup. For people that do not have all the gear yet can use the Setup 2 which is easier to obtain and beginners can use Setup 3.

Setup 1 is with Trial Gear
Setup 2 is without Trial Gear
Setup 3 is for Beginners

There are a lot of good Stamina Sets available, you can find more viable stamina dps sets in this Stamina DPS Sets Article. I also elaborate on specific sets that are often used in this article to give you a bit more insight as to why they are used.

Gear Setup 1 – Stamina Templar Build

Optionally, you can also wear a full monster set.

Gear Setup 2 – Stamina Templar Build

This setup is for those that did not have the chances yet to step into a trial. You will deal slightly less damage than with the tier 1 setup, but not by much. Overall, the gear here is easier to get because you aren’t required to enter a trial.

Briarheart Dagger: There is an unique Dagger “Materre’s Bodkin” that you can get fairly easy, instead of buying it expensive in the store.

Gear Setup 3 Beginner – Stamina Templar Build

This setup is dedicated to people that have not had the chance to farm the necessary gear for the maximum damage potential. All the gear here is either craftable or cheap to get in a guildstore.

Make sure to ask a friend to craft Hunding’s Rage and Night Mother’s Gaze. Agility jewelry can be obtained in the Guildstores. I do recommend having around 18k health (with buff-food). You can buy cheap Agility jewelry with healthy trait to reach this value if you want.

 

Where can I get the gear?

Pillar of Nirn: Falkreath Hold Dungeon
Perfected Merciless Charge (Maelstrom 2H): vMaelstrom Arena
Merciless Charge: nMaelstrom Arena
Slimecraw: vWayrest Sewers 1, Undaunted Enclave
Harpooner’s Wading Kilt (Mythic): Antiquities
Perfect Arms of Relequen: vCloudrest
Arms of Relequen: Cloudrest

Hunding’s Rage: Craftable
Night Mother’s Gaze: Craftable
Agility: Guildstore
Briarheart: Wrothgar, Guildstore
Mechanical Acuity: Craftable

 

Skills

The skill setup for the Stamina Templar Build is very focused at maximizing your damage in your group.

Camouflaged Hunter is only on the front bar to increase our overall Weapon Damage through Fighters Guild passives.

Skills explanation:

Barbed Trap: Deals damage and gives you Minor Force, increasing your Critical Damage by 10%.
Power of the Light: Great single target damage ability.
Biting Jabs: Your main spammable, also procs the Burning Light passive.
Camouflaged Hunter: Only slotted passively for a bit of extra damage, this is your flex spot.
Deadly Cloak: Deals great AoE and single target damage and gives us 20% AoE damage mitigation.
Flawless Dawnbreaker: This ultimate can be used for AoE (area of effect) encounters, for single target we use the other ultimate on the back bar.
Stampede: Very powerful Single Target and AoE ability.
Ritual of Retribution: Great AoE (area of effect) and single target damage, costs magicka but scales of both magicka and stamina build stats.
Carve: Strong single target and AoE bleed ability.
Blazing Spear: Deals great single target and area of effect damage.
Resolving Vigor: Your heal, this is also your flex spot where you can place any other ability that you like.
Ice Comet: Your main ultimate, deals great AoE (area of effect) and single target damage. (You can also use Empowering Sweep if you don’t have access to Ice Comet).

Templar Scribing Skills

The ESO Scribing System offers plenty of adjustable skills to add to our build. We have two good options. Venomous Knife and Bloody Smash. Bloody Smash deals good direct and damage over time damage. Venomous Knife with the Warrior’s opportunity is a must have in stamina groups because it lets enemies take 8% more physical damage. But you only need this once, if someone else has it swap to Lingering Torment script to get additional damage over time. Both skills also give us easy access to Minor Berserk. If you already have that buff, swap it out with another Affix script.

Important: Please read here how to get Grimoires, Focus Scripts, Signature Scripts and Affix Scripts for the ESO Scribing System.

Base Scribing Skill:

Dual Wield: Traveling Knife
Two Handed: Smash

You need to reach level 25 in the skill lines of Dual Wield and Two-handed to unlock these Scribing Skills.

Resource Management

Just using the right buff food, potions and a few heavy attacks here and there should keep your resources in a good place.

Energy Orb will always be present in a good group. When you get close to the Orb you can activate its synergy to regain resources.

Potions should always be used on cooldown to gain the maximum benefit from them.

Heavy Attacks help you restore Stamina, if you drop low on resources do a few Heavy Attacks between skills to refill your Stamina.

Orbs or Spears from Healers
Heavy Attacks
Potions
Restoring Focus & Repentance (Optional)

However, if you have resource management issues you can also use Restoring Focus or Repentance to increase sustain.

Rotation for the Stamina Templar Build

Here is a quick explanation of what you have to do with all the skills on your bar.

Your main spammable is Biting Jabs
Reapply DoTs (damage over time) effects after they run out: Deadly Cloak, Power of the Light, Stampede, Carve, Ritual of Retribution, Blazing Spear and Barbed Trap.
