Should You Play This Build?

The ESO Magicka Templar PvP Omega is ideal for players looking to absolutely burst down single targets or nuke groups in AoE keeps, Cyrodiil, Battlegrounds or Solo Omega can do it all!   It’s a semi-easy build to play but relies on bar swapping frequently to survive along with a super easy front bar making it not nearly as complex as other builds.

Gear

Beginner setup: high mitigation, easy to obtain sets and modified when you want more damage.

Slot	Weight	Set	Trait	Glyph
Head	Heavy	Engine Guardian	Impenetrable	Health
Shoulders	Heavy	Engine Guardian	Impenetrable	Magicka
Chest	Heavy	Mark of the Pariah	Reinforced	Health
Legs	Heavy	Mark of the Pariah	Impenetrable	Health
Gloves	Light	Shacklebreaker	Impenetrable	Magicka
Boots	Heavy	Shacklebreaker	Impenetrable	Magicka
Belt	Light	Shacklebreaker	Impenetrable	Magicka
Weapon One	Lighting	Shacklebreaker	Sharpened	Disease
Weapon Two	Restoration	Shacklebreaker	Powered	Magicka Steal
Necklace		Mark of the Pariah	Arcane/Healthy	Magicka Recovery
Ring		Mark of the Pariah	Arcane/Healthy	Spell Damage
Ring		Mark of the Pariah	Arcane/Healthy	Spell Damage

The below setup will make you very sturdy with great resource pool for healing, cleansing and casting buffs.

Engine Guardian: helm obtained in Darkshade Caverns II, shoulder from Maj with undaunted keys

• (1 item) Adds 129 Health Recovery
• (2 items) When you use an ability, you have a 25% chance to summon a Dwemer automation to restore 550 Stamina or Magicka or 1955 Health to you every 0.5 seconds for 6 seconds. This effect can occur once every 10 seconds.

WHY? using a lot of heavy armor will limit your resource regeneration unless taking pressure making Engine Guardian a great solution.  You can swap to massive damage dealer like Balorg for high burst.

Mark of the Pariah: obtained in Overland Wrothgar or through guild traders

• (2 items) Adds 1206 Maximum Health
• (3 items) Adds 1487 Armor
• (4 items) Adds 1487 Armor
• (5 items) Increases your Physical Resistance and Spell Resistance by up to 10206 based on your missing Health. Current value: 2373

WHY? makes you incredibly tanky and very forgiving if you’re slow to react to incoming damage.

Shacklebreaker: Craftable 6 trait in Vvardenfell Morrowind DLC.

• (2 items) Adds 129 Stamina Recovery
• (3 items) Adds 129 Magicka Recovery
• (4 items) Adds 129 Weapon Damage and Spell Damage
• (5 items) Adds 2065 Maximum Stamina, Adds 2065 Maximum Magicka

WHY? large stat pool allows you to spec heavily into health/resource sustain and makes surviving easier.  Though can be flexed out for more damage/healing.

[FLEX Gear] flex in the below sets for more damage if you do not need/care for large stat pool

Heartland Conqueror: Craftable 7 trait Blackwood also tradeable with players

• (2 items) Adds 129 Weapon Damage and Spell Damage
• (3 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka
• (4 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina
• (5 items) Increase the effectiveness of your Weapon Traits by 100%. This does not effect Ornate or Intricate traits.

WHY? increases your weapon trait making it a great flexible 5 piece when you want more damage/more survivability all from one set.

Ancient Dragonguard: Craftable 6 trait in Souther-Elsweyr also tradeable with players

• (2 items) Adds 1206 Maximum Health
• (3 items) Adds 129 Weapon Damage and Spell Damage
• (4 items) Adds 657 Critical Chance
• (5 items) Adds 300 Weapon Damage and Spell Damage while your Health is above 50%. Adds 3460 Physical Resistance and Spell Resistance while your Health is 50% or less.

WHY? Great set for higher damage builds that also flips on defensive mode below 50% paired very well with Pariah.  Swap to this if you really struggle with breaking crowd control of panicky when taking pressure.

 

Group Setup: good group utility and survivability

Slot	Weight	Set	Trait	Glyph
Head	Heavy	Gaze of Sithis	Well-Fitted	Prismatic
Shoulders	Light	Domihaus	Well-Fitted	Magicka
Chest	Heavy	Mechanical Acuity	Reinforced	Prismatic
Legs	Heavy	Mechanical Acuity	Well-Fitted	Prismatic
Gloves	Light	Mechanical Acuity	Impenetrable	Magicka
Boots	Light	Mechanical Acuity	Impenetrable	Magicka
Belt	Heavy	Mechanical Acuity	Impenetrable	Magicka
Weapon One	Frost	Master’s	Sharpened	Poison’s
Weapon Two	Restoration	Olorime	Powered	Spell damage
Necklace		Olorime	Infused	Magicka Recovery
Ring		Olorime	Infused	Spell Damage
Ring		Olorime	Infused	Spell Damage

The below setup will add value to any team you are on and amazing survivability.

Gaze of Sithis (guide found here): obtain through ESO Mythic system

• (1 item) Adds 3276 Maximum Health, Adds 1025 Health Recovery, Adds 4000 Armor, Reduces your Block Mitigation to 0.

WHY? an absolute insane value for a one piece but requires us to not use sword and shield and reframe from blocking.  Once you practice it is well worth it!

Domihaus (one piece only): found Falkreath Hold and Undaunted pledge system

• (1 item) Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina, Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka

WHY? great value with much needed max stats for a one piece.  Swarm Mothers also give same bonus.

Mechanical Acuity: A craftable set found in the Clockwork City Pavillion of Artifice

• (2 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina
• (3 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka
• (4 items) Adds 129 Weapon Damage and Spell Damage
• (5 items) When you deal direct damage, you gain unerring mechanical vision for 5 seconds, granting you 100% Critical Strike chance. This effect can occur once every 21 seconds.

WHY? utterly insane burst when proc’d

• [Flex] Clever Alchemist: a craftable set in Hew’s Bane.  You need 7 traits researched to craft.
  • (2 items) Adds 1206 Maximum Health
  • (3 items) Adds 1206 Maximum Health
  • (4 items) Adds 129 Weapon Damage and Spell Damage
  • (5 items) When you drink a potion during combat you feel a rush of energy, increasing your Weapon Damage and Spell Damage by 675 for 20 seconds.

Perfected Destructive Impact: obtained in Veteran Dragonstar Arena.

• (2 items) Adds 103 Spell Damage, Reduces the cost of Destructive Touch by 10% and increases your Spell Damage by 600 for 4 seconds after activating it.

WHY? Waking Flames DLC this will hit hard, proc 600 spell damage, immobilize the target AND apply major maim reducing their damage!

• Perfected Vateshran: Found in Vateshran Hollows on veteran difficulty
  • (2 items) Adds 1190 Spell Penetration, Casting Weakness to Elements on a target within 15 meters of you causes a surge of elemental energy to tether between you for 10 seconds. While the tether persists, enemies touching the tether take 331 Flame Damage, 331 Shock Damage, or 331 Frost Damage every 1 second, which increases by 1% each time it deals damage, up to 20%. This effect can occur once every 10 seconds, and scales off the higher of your Weapon or Spell Damage.

WHY? just having the extra spell penetration is great but the extra DoT in melee range makes it a must have!
