Introduction
Welcome to the Guardian ESO Templar Tank Build.
This build is an updated version of the ‘Memeplar’ Templar Tank build. This version is more optimised for group content now we have discovered new ways to crowd control enemies recently. There are a number of things you can adjust to make this a good build for trial content but generally it is aimed at 4-person content.
For more optimised build for other content please see Main Tank, Off Tank, and Dungeon Tank builds that we have on the site.
Other Information
You can use whatever Race you want for this build. The usual Imperial, Redguard, Argonian and Nord will make things somewhat easier but you can really just put this gear on any Templar that you have and it will perform the same.
Race
Mundus
The Atronach
Attributes
14 Magicka
16 Health
34 Stamina
Food
Bewitched Sugar Skulls
Potions
For the Mundus Stone we go with The Atronach for the additional Magicka Recovery as most of our skills are Magicka costing.
Our Attributes are set with 64 Health. We will balance out some more Magicka/Stamina if needed by adjusting the enchants on our gear.
We will be using Bewitched Sugar Skulls for the food so we can get all 3 Max resources higher which are all valuable for Tanking.
For potions we use Essence of Health Tri-Stat potions.

How to Play / Guide
Precast Restoring Focus and Radiant Ward.
Run at the enemies and initiate combat with a light attack and place Elemental Blockade.
After 2 seconds, cast Power Slam to proc Void Bash which should pull all enemies onto your Blockade.
Cast Pulsar twice to immobilise all enemies.
Once you are in an add pull you want to make sure you have everything down on the ground with Elemental Blockade, Extended Ritual and Restoring Focus, all ranged enemies taunted. Every time 2+ enemies die, cast Repentance for Stamina sustain. While taking damage recast Living Dark and Radiant Ward for healing and shields.
If you have Extended Ritual and Living Dark active while stood inside Restoring Focus, this should provide a large amount of healing in the region of 8k per second with the option to add a 10-20k damage shield on top of that with Radiant Ward.
