ESO One Bar PvP Stamina Templar Build
The ESO One Bar PvP Stamina Templar Build is for players that are looking to play battlegrounds or Cyrodiil content with a well-rounded class. The ESO Stamina Templar PVP build offers some hard-hitting burst, high mobility and great survivability. What makes the Stamplar PvP build unique is the healing and burst damage it has. This class, with base game skills and easy-to-access gear options, can be very effective right from the start of the game. The downside is, with Update 35 in ESO, Biting Jabs skill was nerfed very hard. But, you can adapt the build for more of damage over time Stamplar PvP build and feel just as dominant. Thus, this build will reflect ESO’s direction with the class. High survivability and burst damage without the need for Jabs. We also included flexible gear options for those with or without Oakensoul Ring mythic.

Last Updated March 24th, 2023 for Update 37, Scribes of Fate. With the nerf of Biting Jabs in 2022 Update 35, I’ve switched the build focus to a single target killer. The stamplar now excels at single target pressure, and it has a ranged execute. This build’s most important aspect is playing it with the Oakensoul Ring mythic. Your build will look similar in gear choices to the magica version. However, keep in mind that since the changes to the Mythic and Empowered Buff, One Bar PvP builds have become much weaker.
The Best PvP One Bar Stamina Templar – Heavy Attack build for Templar
In ESO, the One Bar Stamina Templar Build is perfect for everyone, and literally. Great for beginners, veterans, players of any age and experience. It’s easy to understand and doesn’t require bar swapping – the game element that simplifies the gameplay without hurting the potential damage per second. If a heavy attack builds playstyle and following “pros” is what you are looking for, this build is for you!
Pros | Cons |
Insane self-healing | No defensive ult |
Very simple offensive loadout | Gear can be difficult to obtain |
Great against gankers/stealth play |

Skills
Front Bar Lightning Staff
Front Bar Weapon Options
- Lightning Staff: provides easy fully charged heavy attacks for resource sustain and AoE damage when channeling.
- Fire Staff: most single target damage and pairs well with elemental users.
- Dual Wield: highest DPS but without a second bar can be brutal to sustain.
Binding Javelin (Morph of Piercing Javelin | Skill line: Aedric Spear) - Deals Physical Damage and stun the enemy them for 4 seconds. Important and why is it strong? This ability ignores the enemy's Resistances and cannot be blocked.
Race Against Time (Morph of Accelerate | Skill line: Psijic Order) - mobility and bursting damage tool with increased critical damage.
Living Dark (Morph of Eclipse | Skill line: Dawns Wrath) - a super powerful survivability tool that scales off of max health making us very durable.
Biting Jabs (Morph of Puncturing Strikes | Skill line: Aedric Spear) - This ability was nerfed recently in Update 35 but still works as a great spammable for aoe and melee. Another option is Silver Shards which is ranged and AoE as well.
Honor The Dead (Morph of Rushed Ceremony | Skill line: Restoring Light) - single target burst heal
Dawnbreaker Of Smiting (Morph of Dawnbreaker | Skill line: Fighters Guild) - AoE burst damage and a stun, great for solo or group bursting tool. FLEX: If using Werewolf Form swap for Pack Leader Ultimate
Werewolf Bar (when transformed)
The werewolf playstyle is a strong PVP option. In this build Worewolf pairs greatly with a new mythic, the Oakensoul Ring, because as the werewolf, you have only one bar regardless. And to the already strong playstyle, you add all the fantastic mythic bonuses. If you are playing as Werewolf, use these skills and ultimate:
Feral Pounce (Morph of Pounce | Skill line: Werewolf) - Great for closing distance and double cast for execute.
Hircines Bounty (Skill line: Werewolf) - Incredible heal that gives us major brutality
Deafening Roar (Morph of Roar | Skill line: Werewolf) - AoE stuff that sets off balance and gives major breach and minor maim.
Howl Of Agony (Morph of Piercing Howl | Skill line: Werewolf) - Strong conal damage in front hits harder.
Claws Of Life (Morph of Infectious Claw | Skill line: Werewolf) - Incredible debuff and damage over time that heals very well.
Pack Leader (Morph of Werewolf Transformation | Skill line: Werewolf) - This ult gives you a boost to weapon damage/spell damage via minor courage and you take 10% less damage.
