EDIT - Blackwood Chapter Update:
Race, Mundus Stone, Food:
- still more or less the same. Preference of Mundus Stone shifts slightly towards the Thief.
Gear:
- 5x Sorrow, 5x Siroria (inferno or dual wield), 1x Slimecraw, 1x Harpooner's Wading Kilt (new mythic), vMA Inferno Staff
- Bahsei's and Diamond's Victory are two new viable sets
Rotation / Skills
- no significant changes here, as before!
Blue CP Slottables:
- Biting Aura, Deadly Aim, Master-at-arms, Backstabber (Thaumaturge / Fighting Finesse as backups)
Damage Comparison estimate for Blackwood:
- If Flames of Ambition set and rotation here, expect:
- 100/101k+ with Sorrow/Siroria

Thanks for checking out this collection of Magicka Templar PVE Builds (originally) for the Flames of Ambition DLC, but also with adjustments for Blackwood, for The Elder Scrolls Online.
Here, with the help of Raged, we showcase two strong Magicka Templar Builds. These are melee builds, so they play to the class' current strengths.
If anyone has questions, you can message Raged @Raged#0134. Quick shout out to Aedra, PC NA.
Also, thanks to Nymzy, who has featured on this channel with his Magplar Builds in the past, for the static rotation below.

![ESO - [Symbolic] - vAS HM - Stamblade Bow/Bow Practice - Wrathstone](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ihpMQ-z0iZ8/mqdefault.jpg "ESO - [Symbolic] - vAS HM - Stamblade Bow/Bow Practice - Wrathstone
This is a clip from Day 2 as a Bow user in vAS HM. I had fun trying out for Symbolic, thanks for having me. Karma and I are looking forward to leaving Hodor and joining the core team kappa.
I was at 64k/52k DPS when the last sphere came before the execute phase. Unfortunately, the Main Tank died at the beginning of execute so we didnt finish this attempt. This means I dont really have a clean parse to link, since the fight dragged on. It does show that this build certainly has potential to beat a Magblade.
Hopefully, if I do upload again, it will be a bit more polished, still a lot more to get right consistently. This is mainly an upload for the interest of others in Hodor so we can compare, but Im leaving it public so maybe others can find it useful too.
Some notes which helped me improve from Day 1:
This is a clip from when I was using Reapers Mark, so I was setting off a little earlier than usual to make the most of the Major Berserk. Still did 11-12k AOE damage, which is pretty reasonable considering.
Without Mark (since I was taking turns with Karma) I would use Crushing Weapon to attack spheres when they were below 50%, to guarantee that I do not waste Global Cooldowns from casting an empty Snipe. Although you dont see it consistently here, when a sphere was approaching I would cast Crushing instead of Snipe to prevent wasted GCDs.
Crushing Weapon was also really good to use if I needed mobility when I was in a hard spot such as when kiting storm, and when I had the defiling blast on me as youll see. The heal does 25% of the damage done, so it is a pretty strong self-heal.
Previously I didnt bother to recast Hail at all on Olms, but it also works to recast it when a sphere spawns under Olms. If not, then a poison injection just to keep up the Berserker Glyph.
I didnt try ballista over incap at all. Incap was great because it usually coincided with the source of Major Slayer received from the DDs next to me (thanks Random!). Lining my skills up with incap is something that I can do a lot better, but it was pretty bursty all the same despite some mis-timings.
My major courage uptime here was only 39%, entirely my fault as I was playing in a different position than I do normally, and with a lot of new things to learn, looking for Olorime took a backseat - oopsie!
