My templar AvA build

So with the upcoming launch and the hope of being able to play tons of AvA, I've been spending crazy amount of time trying to figure out something that I will like....  I normally play an up close heavy armor melee type, but after spending a bit of time in AvA over the past 2 weeks I realised that that kind of play style is not used much and you are usualy dead before you get in close.....

so here is something I came up with as a big fan of the Templar I figure I should take advantage of there healing skill line and play support for the troups

Race: Breton for the magika boost

Armor: mix of light and medium, will have probably sets to switch around depending on the type of fight

weapon:  Bow & resto staff

so here is a link of my build,  any thoughts from those who played in these skill lines is welcome, like I said I spent most of my time playing around with tanks so this range stuff is new to me

I use radiant aura with the bow and it works well if you can keep the enemy at range; or if you can play with a tank running interference for you.

Nice skill selections on the support side. I also like the use of War Horn in the build.

One thing to consider, snipe is not that great of a skill unless you are going full-on DPS with 7/7 medium armor and using stealth. It has a 3-second cast time. You might be better off using something like Arrow Spray.

I'm planing a bow/resto staff templar build also, but built it differently. I planned on starting with the bow and using healing ritual/ritual of rebirth until lvl 15 when I can switch to a second weapon. Then I'd fill that slot with magelight's morph inner light, which gives +20% spell crit chance. I'm planning on Imperial with 5 light armor and 2 heavy armor.  Here's the build, see what you think:

Bow/Resto AvA Templar

yeah I've changed things somewhat from original, I use only one bow skill..  run more heal stuff and support,  use some of the alliance skills have it worked up that when I switch to my bow it helps me regen my magika, will try and link up my build later tonight.
