**A Comprehensive Guide to the Blazing Shield Tempt Build**

As a PVP build enthusiast, I'm excited to share with you one of my favorite builds - the Blazing Shield Tempt. This build is designed to provide maximum sustain and damage output, making it an excellent choice for players who want to tackle challenging content in ESO.

**Set Pieces and Enchantments**

One of the key aspects of this build is its set pieces and enchantments. The set consists of a sword and shield, which can be obtained through various means such as crafting or purchasing from other players. The swords, specifically, are sharpened to increase damage output, while the shield has an impenetrable armor piece that provides additional survivability.

The player also uses Desert Rose, which is not easily obtainable in the game. It's either purchased from other players or obtained through gambling Alliance points for a rare item known as Desert Rose boxes. This set piece can be used to boost the build's effectiveness, particularly when dealing with damage reduction effects.

**Vampirism Stage 4**

For this build, we're using stage four vampirism. This stage provides significant benefits, including increased damage reduction, bats swarm, and misform. The player uses the Atok Mundus effect to further boost damage output. In terms of food, we're relying on items like Increase Health, Stamina, and Max Magicka.

The build's Magga recover is set at 1,600 stamina recovery per second, with a max health and magicka capacity of 66k and 18k respectively. The critical chance for this build is relatively low, but not a major concern given its focus on sustain rather than raw damage output.

**Champion Points**

When it comes to champion points, the player has invested a significant amount in cost reduction, recovery, Shadow Ward, Tumbling Reduce Block Cost, and CC Breakage. The build also includes blessings, elven born, elemental expert, and spell erosion, making it well-rounded and adaptable to different playstyles.

The final set of points has been allocated towards Bastion, further enhancing the build's survivability and damage output. These champion points are a key factor in determining the effectiveness of this build, and players can adjust them according to their personal playstyle.

**Race and Champion Point Distribution**

As for race, I'm an Imperial, but Nord and Argonian also work well with this build. When it comes to champion point distribution, we've got 10 points into cost reduction, 18 into recovery, Shadow Ward, and Tumbling Reduce Block Cost, 32 into Shattering Blow, and 39 into Thundering blows.

The remaining points have been allocated towards Hardy, Elemental Defender, and Bastion, providing the build with a solid foundation for survivability and damage output. The player can adjust these points according to their needs and playstyle.

**Build Efficiency and Solo Play**

One of the key aspects of this build is its efficiency in sustaining itself. With Desert Rose's ability to restore 2.4k magicka, the build can maintain high levels of damage output even when under pressure. Additionally, the player can use channeled focus while in mist form to recover magicka.

The build can also be played solo, but it's recommended for groups of four players due to its reliance on additional damage output and survivability. The player can adapt this build to fit their playstyle and the specific needs of their group.

**Conclusion**

In conclusion, the Blazing Shield Tempt is a powerful build that offers excellent sustain and damage output. With the right set pieces, enchantments, and champion point distribution, players can create an effective and efficient team for tackling challenging content in ESO. As always, I'll be sharing this build on my website and YouTube channel, so stay tuned for more updates and tips.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey what's up guys it's Cipher from cipher.com and today I'm bringing you uh my promised Templar tank build now before I start I do want to say something real quick about the origins of this build uh this build was given to me from aoy and he is a DC Templar one of the OG Health Templar tanks and um to give him some credit I want to his YouTube channel in the description so if you want to see this build in action or variations of this build in action go ahead and check out his YouTube Channel show him some love and tell him that Cypher sent you I also do want to say that uh the sorcerer build I posted yesterday I got a lot of help from Cody uh putting together that build and I forgot to give him credit for the build so I'm also going to credit Cody and put his description and his YouTube channel on that video and on this video if you want to go check out his YouTube channel so go show them some love and I'm going to jump right into this build so I didn't want to upload this build just because this build is very obnoxious to go against and it just it shows some of the aspects of PVP that I don't really like but nonetheless it is a fun build to play if you know what you're doing and um you can get some kills against some unfortunate uh foes but it's the type of build that if you're going against players who know what they're doing usually they you you won't be able to get or cure kills and they could wear you down or just ignore you for that matter um so here is the build all right it's a oneand and shield dual wield setup let's start off with the one-hand and shield setup we got structured entropy because that's going to give us 8% Max health and this build is all about stacking Health to get more damage out of your blazing shield now blazing Shield is a Templar ability and it scales based off of your maximum health and it does damage based off of your maximum health so really strong shield and um this is where most of your damage is going to be coming from invigorating drain this is going to be a decent CC and it's also going to give you um some ultimate return and it restores health based off of missing health so this also scales with your maximum health and you'll notice that a lot of the abilities here scale with your maximum health to give you the best efficiency possible absorb magic this absorbs the projectile and heals you based off of your maximum health 177% to be exact so this is another ability that's going to heal you based off of Max health and um pretty good to for sustain and uh just keeping your health topped off uh we got honor the dead this is just a Mana dump in case you need just a little bit extra healing um because these healing abilities require a Target this one is just completely defensive and you don't need a Target to top yourself off spell wall this is the one-hand and shield uh reflect ultimate uh we're going with the reflect morph it's really useful especially when you're being kited the big counter to this build is when people play from range and start kiing you so if a lot a lot of people are attacking you from range with Snipes with Crystal fragments crushing shock you put up your spell ball and you're immune to projectiles and you even reflect them for 7 Seconds um back bar we got dual wield elusive Mist for mobility and just damage reduction puncturing sweep just for a little bit more extra uh you know pressure if needed you could also put rain instruction here you don't necessarily need puncturing sweep Top Lane charge to Gap close extended ritual which is going to increase your healing by 30% and also what when you're standing inside it and also cleanse you of dots really useful with passive healing challeng Focus which is going to give you Magicka return which is very important for this build considering it's full heavy armor it doesn't have a huge amount of magic recovery and it also it's going to give you major olve in major Ward making you a little bit more tanky and harder to kill for the ultimate we have devouring swarm this is going to be good to keep your health going and just added a little bit extra AOE pressure so let's jump right into the sets now I do want to say that these sets are expensive hard to obtain and in some ways uh you might go insane trying to get them um I got very lucky with with some of this stuff Stu that I got in here we are running malith heavy and medium shoulders impenetrable maximum health on all enchants now for undaunted you can run malith you can run uh pirate skeleton you can run gratar there's a lot of different options but I felt like malth gave you the best survivability as much as I hate this set this set gives you everything you need for this build as far as giving you the max Health bonus and giving you insane heals we're also running five pieces of plague doctor which gives you maximum health maximum maximum health 4% healing taken and 6K Max Health we're running impen on all the plague doctor pieces except the legs I don't think the legs I mean they might drop an impen but for some reason the legs are very very very rare to get an impen for whatever reason so I went with stir giving you 4% reduced block cost the waste is the Desert Rose Belt this is going to complete the 511 setup uh five heavy one medium one light to give you the 6% bonus from undaunted uh and then for jewelry we have three desert rows and no two desert rows and one plague doctor with magical recovery on all the jewelry en chants uh sword and shield we have Desert Rose sword and shield sharpen on the sword and then impenetrable on the shield maximum health with spell damage bonus on this one and we have dual wield swords Desert Rose which is going to give you the bonus from the Dual passive onto your magic abilities and we have sharpen on both um so the setup here is for Desert Rose your weapons are desert row sword and shield and dual wield your jewelry you you got two desert rows one Desert Rose Belt and then for plague doctor you got a plague doctor ring with four on the body and then two malith this is the most efficient way to run these sets because you're able to get the 511 you're also able to get a healthy ring because you could run desert rose on the jewelry alone and just run plague doctor on the body but then you miss out on some extra Health from the healthy ring because um Desert Rose doesn't come and healthy uh now malabe shoulders you get from doing undaunted the helmet you get from doing one of the undaunted dungeons um plague doctor drops in a specific location so this is a tradable item over Overworld drop and then Desert Rose the only way to get Desert Rose is if you buy it from other people or if you go and gamble your alliance points here in crops for there is a MPC that you can buy desert Rose boxes from and get items from him but again it's I spent a couple million Alliance points to get these swords and the sword and shield it's these swords coming in sharpen and the sword and shield it's it's very hard to get and they're very expensive um even getting the impenetrable armor piece uh it could cost you but I'm sure some people might be selling them in Guild stores and whatnot so that's the sets let's look a little bit into the stats real quickly uh stage four vampirism we are a vampire for the damage reduction bats swarm and Mis form we're using the atock Mundus and for food we're just using increase health stamina and Max Magicka our Maga recover is at 1,600 stamina recovery 600 uh 66k Max Health uh 18K Max Magicka 15K stamina um small critical 22% but that doesn't really matter too much and your and resistan is unbuffed 20 3K 18K buffed 208k 23k um I also want to mention for all the people that are going to be like yo Cipher this build sucks dick I have 90k Max maximum health and um you only have 66k well the thing is this build can sustain extremely well and the reason is Desert Rose Desert Rose when you take damage you have a 10% chance to restore 2.4k Magicka this effect can occur once every 10 seconds if you wants this build in action it hits really hard when people are attacking your Shields but you also rarely ever run out of Magicka you can also get Magicka back while you are in Mist form using channeled focus and the desert rose can also proc so you can be in Mist form and your max Magicka can get completely topped off so extremely efficient maximum Magicka you do not need 80k 90k health to be a blazing Shield temper you can even get away with 50k health and still be effective so I play this build solo but obviously this build is probably played best with a small group of four players um because you'll need some extra Damage Done to deal with some you know stronger opponents but it's a very very good tank setup um let's go into the champion points really quickly oh and for race I am an imperial Imperial is probably my favorite pick but Nord and Argonian also works well let's go into the champion points really quick quickly we got a lot of points into cost reduction some into recovery Shadow Ward and tumbling reduce block cost and reduce CC break 10 points into bless 18 into elfborn 93 into Elemental expert and 29 to spell erosion Five Points into shattering blows 32 into thur increasing th damage over here we have 10 resistance 15 thick skinned 26 Elemental Defender 39 Hardy and 97 into Bastion pretty standard CP setup for a build of this kind again the abilities are as shown you the abilities are pretty flexible you can actually put a lot of different things in and out you don't necessarily have to run the abilities as they they are shown here but um they're pretty flexible so that's the build guys I know I'm going to get some hate for posting this build but at the end of the day this build exists in the game and there's people out there running it and my job here as a like a PVP build person a PVP you know is this a trap Beast we'll put this here um as a PVP player like at the end of the day I want to share the information with you guys um I went I'm sure I went over the enchants right I pull maximum health on every body piece and and shields spell damage here spell damage here uh deal Magic Dage restore Magicka and then recovery on the jewelry just just making sure everybody knows that um that's about it for the build guys it's pretty self-explanatory there's a lot of different variations of the build you can drop desert rows you can run a lot of different things um but yeah um I will try to get this on my on my website cy.com and it will be on my YouTube so thank you guys so much for watching if you have any questions leave them in the comment section below I will see you guys next time takehey what's up guys it's Cipher from
