Highest TEMPLAR Dps available in the game.

Build has Levelling and Early/Mid Game setup.

I'll edit this a week or so after release especially if there s big changes happening.

EDIT 1: We only have 4 Stigmas available at the same time, setup fixed and added a swap to safe option for tough fights.

EDIT 2: Daevanion board updated (tip: Prioritize getting skills at lvl12 rather than completing the board or getting the corner keynodes)

Anyways, check my YouTube for more: @xleonis
Full YouTube video guide explaining how the build works, showing the Macro, what to prioritize when it comes to Skill lvls, Stats on Gear and so on!

Difensive Setup - Early

Swapped Empyrean Lord's Punishment, Templar · Stigma for Shield of Protection, Templar · Stigma.
More defensive setup for tougher fights if you feel like you need more survivability and/or you're less confident with the fight.
