ESO Magicka Templar Infinite Archive Build
Welcome to my Magicka Templar Build for the Infinite Archive in ESO! A dedicated Pure Class Build that will help you progress inside the Archive, collect loot and Archival Fortunes. The Build offers a great balance of offense, defense and utility, thanks to the Templar Class skills and other abilities. The Templar is an amazing ESO Class with access to several AOE skills that can deal damage or assist you. This Solo Build is using a mix of Magic and Elemental Damage to defeat enemies and clear Arcs in the Infinite Archive.

Continue with Purifying Light and Puncturing Sweep as your spammable. Keep attacking with Puncturing Sweep and re-cast the other skills when necessary. Cast Warding Contingency and trigger it with another skill to gain a Damage Shield and boost your defense. When the enemy’s Health drops below 25%-30% start executing with Radiant Oppression. Use Honor the Dead to heal and your Ultimates when ready. Always light Attack before skills to boost damage.
Best Companion
You can also bring along a mighty Companion inside the Infinite Archive! Companions in ESO are helpful allies that can assist you in combat. Every Companion can fulfill every role in the game and help you enjoy ESO more by clearing content faster or by simply interacting with them and their charming personality!

As a Solo focused character my recommendation is to bring along a Tank or Healer Companion!

To further maximize the potential of your chosen Companion, you can wear the Telvanni Efficiency Set! A Crafted Set that reduces the cooldown of your Companions abilities, improving their damage and overall effects and assisting you further in combat.
