I like 5 kagrenacs , 5 transmutation , 2 skoria 5 heavy , 1 light , 1 medium for small group play 24 people . All the pieces are fairly cheapeasy to acquire . You could run this as 1 h shield dw or 1 h shield restro or destro staff for ulti . I ' d also recommend being a vampire as channelled focus works in mist form , its really nice recovery and utility . Templar is a very versatile class so it really depends on your play style . You could replace skoria with troll king or malubeth to be tankier . Alchemist , cyrodil ' s light and desert rose are also worth looking at . Another option is to make a ' blazing shield ' templar with 60 k or so health that spams blazing shield and just won ' t die but i ' m not going to promote that p
