Why Templars are so weak in PVP at low levels comparing to other classes?
First of all you need to know that all classes are balanced for endgame. This means – the lower level you have, the more imbalance exists comparing to other classes. Second – Templar is a tanking class, not damage dealer, so its base attack is lower or even much lower than others. You get your first serious skills at levels 16-19, and much more after 25. Therefore there is no much sense in going PVP with Templar until lvl 20, as you don’t really have any critical skills yet. You’ll get them later in game and trust me, you will kick *** (if you’re a good PvP player anyway).
