Templar talent calculator that you will find bellow will help you decide which way you will build this versatile class. Choosing the right skill line will provide you with the ability to tank, heal or do good deal of damage. There are a lot of combinations to choose from and wielding bows and healing your buddies from a distance, or going up close and personal with heavy armor and self healing are all good choices with the Templar. Pick and choose carefully and you can define your playstyle in many ways. We hope the skill calculator tool will help you decide what to do in various stages of your character’s progression.
Data seen in this ESO Templar skill calculator is based off of PTS 3.0 build of the game’s client. In preparation for the release of ESO Morrowind DLC/expansion we have decided to make the default talent calculator reflect PTS skills so you can plan in advance. We will also update it as things are certainly going to change as we get closer to release on live.
ESO Morrowind Update: Skill calculator has been updated to live servers version 3.0.5 data – same as what people playing Morrowind early access are getting. All the spell values (damage and such) are based on the assumption that you have 15000 Stamina, 15000 Magicka and 1500 Weapon and Spell damage. This means that if your character has different values your in-game tooltips will show different values.

Praetorian
The Praetorian is a build accustomed to every situation. While wearing heavy armor and boosted by all the passive skills of the Aedric Spear, Dawn's Wrath, One Hand and Shield, Bows, Heavy Armor, and the second half of passives from Restoring light, he gains incredible durability with overcharged armor and spell resistance and regeneration across the board. Use the sword and board to defeat larger groups of enemies; always use Ransack if you are in battle and don't have the increased armor buff it gives; use toppling charge to quickly get to targets or quickly interrupt and briefly stun from afar, use Solar Barrage if you're expecting large groups, use Power Slam or Power of the Light on more elite enemies to either consistently stun or to deal high cumulative damage; use Puncturing Sweep to keep your heal up and deal a lot of damage, the more enemies lined up the better; Reflective Light to start each fight, deals a lot of damage and it's AoE, as well as snares; use Radiant Aura to get out of a pinch or if you need more stamina/ health regeneration in general; use Empowering Sweep to take less damage as well as deal a lot of AoE damage quickly, use Solar Disturbance to take out large groups of enemies.
With heavy armor and the way this build uses it's abilities, defense isn't as much of a concern with the bow. Granted I like a bow with the defending trait on it, but between Binding Javelin and Magnum Shot, your enemies should never get the chance to hit you. Use them as much as possible to avoid damage. Use Venom Shot to interrupt spell casters and deal a lot of damage, and use Reflective Light to deal a lot of AoE damage. Radiant Aura serves the same purpose as in the primary set, use Scorched Earth to deal a lot of damage to a group of enemies when the attention won't be on you. Use Solar Disturbance as you wish, you won't really need it.
This build works very well for questing, soloing, and PvE in general, as well as, theoretically, PvP (I haven't played the PvP yet). Primary Set: Tanking/ DPS, Secondary Set: DPS
Thanks for reading, this set works really well for me, hopefully it might help someone else along the way.
