Trade-off
What will challenge you?
Slower damage-first solo progression can feel different from a pure DPS role.
Builds change with skills, content and patch, so treat any damage chart from another region as a lead to test, not a fact.
Is Templar right for you?
You want to hold space, keep enemies busy and help teammates survive.
First-session practice drill
Practice positioning between threats and allies; learn which defensive window helps the whole group.
Solo PvP, group PvP and PvE
Group fights
State your job before engaging: pressure, peel, protection, healing or control. Adapt to teammate positioning and focus calls.
Dungeons
Understand mechanics and the role expected of you. Prioritize reliable participation and staying alive over a single damage parse.
How to review your build
Measure whether allies stayed safe, not just your personal damage.
Check whether your positioning, cooldown order and focus target match the team's plan.
Gear and Stigma decisions
Before spending limited upgrade materials, inspect current Global skill descriptions and calculate whether the upgrade solves your real bottleneck. This is a playstyle guide, not an invented exact-damage rotation.
