There’s an interesting discussion on the Templar forums for Everquest II that involves a player who starts out stating a laundry list of things he dislikes about the Templar class.  He starts out by telling us a bit of background on his situation which he likely feels will show us how he’s qualified to share an opinion on the issues with the class:

Background:  my main is a Dwarf Templar who I started the day this game out.  I’m currently in a raiding guild.  I’m pretty well geared with lots of fabled and Adept 3 and Master spells.I don’t think my main is going to be this toon much longer.  I’m getting up there with my Illusionist and love it.  I have a Fury alt as well and it’s so much more balanced of a class that I just have more fun.

What this passage actually told me was that he’s probably a little burned out with playing the same class for 3 years, especially when there haven’t been any major changes to the class in most of the past 18 months. 

In short, his problem isn’t really with the Templar class per se.  He’s just burned out with playing the same class. 

I don’t blame him.
