Weapon Mastery

The best weapon mastery tree for the Templar Build is Recovery from Wand and Provoke & Counter from Sword and Shield.

Below are the best weapon mastery selections in Throne and Liberty using the Best Templar Build.

• Wand- Allocate 9 points in the Recovery to gain mana regeneration and then switch to Weaken for additional Damage duration.
• Sword and Shield- Use 9 points in Provoke & Counter to achieve additional health and PVE defense and then swap to Boss for Boss Evasion.

Weapon Mastery is a system that gives you experience for your weapon that is equipped proportional to the experience earned. Thus, at the start of the game, Weapon Mastery points are limited, but you will start earning more as your experience per kill and quest increase with level and zones. Your main hand weapon gains increased weapon mastery, while off-hand still gains some, just not as much.

Best Stat Points

The most important stat for the Templar Wand build is Strength and then Dexterity.

Below is the best recommended Stat Point:

• 53 Strength: affects defense, maximum health, maximum damage, and minimum damage.
• 36 Dexterity: affects critical attack, evasion, and maximum damage.
• 25 Wisdom: affects maximum mana and mana regeneration, skill cooldown, and maximum damage.
• 28 Perception: effect accuracy of attacks, Crowd Control effects, enhancing time boost ability, maximum damage, and minimum damage.

In Throne and Liberty, stat points are earned while leveling and increasing your effectiveness.  When you spend a stat point, you increase the effectiveness of that related attribute. However, after a certain number of points, you reach diminishing returns, and two points are required to increase a stat rather than one. Moreover, once stats reach a certain level spent (30 or greater), you gain unique bonuses.

Guardian

The best Guardian for the Best Templar Wand and Sword Build is Lady Knight Kamarshea because of the Eternal Barrier skill that creates a 50% max mana shield and speeds up your cooldowns. If you have enough survivability, look to Masked Warlock Dantalux and the skill Abyssal Sanctuary for increased burst damage.

The best Guardian for the Best Templar Wand Build is the following:

• Eternal Barrier (Lady Knight Kamarshea) – a defensive shield that helps survivability.
• Masked Warlock Dantalux (Abyssal Sanctuary) – an offensive ability that increases bonus damage when consuming mana to use a skill.

Guardians act as a short-term ultimate or super ability with powerful effects and a long cooldown. Ideally, you want to select a Guardian that either enhances a strength or covers up a weakness. You obtain Guardians after level 25 and completing Chapter 25. From that point, you can find how to obtain additional Guardians to enhance your Templar Build further. Moreover, these skills can only be used infrequently, as in 10 minutes, so save them for critical situations.
