Templar icon

These travelling knights call upon the powers of light and the burning sun to deal massive damage to their enemies while restoring health, magicka and stamina to their allies.

— Game Description

Templars are powerful warriors that fight utilizing the power of the sun itself to both smite foes, heal allies and protect themselves. Templars are arguably the most versatile class in TESO, being able to fight effectively as a DPS, Tank or Healer. This is due to the three skill lines; Aedric Spear(DPS), Dawns Wrath(DPS/CC) and Restoring Light(TANK/HEALER). Thanks to the Templar's incredibly versatile skill tree, it is an effective class for both solo and group play.

Templar Skills[]

The three primary skill trees of Templars are:

  • Aedric Spear – consists of aggressive attacking spells that allow the Templar to damage, stun and interrupt enemies.
  • Dawn's Wrath – consists of attacking spells and debuffs that make enemies weaker.
