3rd Job Preview: The Templar

Details: Category: Updates; Published on Tuesday, 22 January 2013 23:40

Templars are masters of defense, invoking shield buffs on the majority of their attacks, greatly reducing damage taken from single targets.

An essential member of any dungeon party, able to absorb the majority of damage dealt allowing their healer to focus more on keeping the rest of the party healthy and debuffed and a force to be reckoned with on any battlefield with it's improved offensive capabilities, but more importantly, it's ability to rescue it's ally's from dire situations.

Welcome to the first of our 3rd Job Previews. These skills are very likely to be part of the Templar's arsenal but may change before release. The skills still need to be tested with the other new jobs once they are ready for testing and your comments and suggestions will also be taken into account. A massive thank you goes out to Faltorn for coming up with all these new skills for the 3rd jobs, he done a really thorough and amazing job.
