RP Holy Fire Templar (Kind Wayfarer/Eothas) Help Build Advice

[maliciousheart]

Was looking to create a (Holy) Fire Spell castin' and bashin' Templar (Kind Wayfarer and Eothas) and was looking for some build advice/recommendations on fire spells and other traits. I bumped myself up to 20 via the console but i'm not sure if the spells/traits I have chosen are the recommended ones. Any advice would be appreciated. Plan on using this in a party build and leavin' the healin' to Xoti and Tekehu later.

 

--------------------

 

Default 1. Pal - Flames of Devotion and Sworn Enemy // Pri - Restore and Holy Power

 

2. Pal - Deep Faith

3. Pal - Retribution

4. Pal - Zealous Aura // Pri - Spiritual Weapon

• Will use Spiritual Flail on MH and Flail OH for early levels. Sun & Moon and/or Sungrazer dual-wielding later? Or Magran's Favor for +Fire Boost.

5. Pal - Two Weapon Style

6. Pal - Divine Purpose

7. Pal - Eternal Devotion (Flames of Devotion Upgrade) // Pri - Combat Focus

8. Pal - Glorious Beacon

9. Pal - Sworn Rival (Sworn Enemy)

• Other one would give burn ticking damage but I thought the refund for Zeal would be better

10. Pal - Scion of Flame // Pri - Exalted Focus

11. Pri - Shining Beacon

12. Pri - Divine Mark

• Not sure whats good. Chose Divine Mark as a dump or possible burn spell to use.

13. Pal - Inspired Beacon (Glorious Beacon Upgrade) // Pri - Searing Seal

14. Pri - Rapid Casting

15. Pri - Litany for the Spirits

16. Pal - Virtuous Triumph / Pri - Pillar of Holy Fire

17. Pal - Improved Critical

18. Pri - Spell Resistance

• Maybe I can resist my own friendly fire?

19. Pal - Stoic Steel / Pri - Cleansing Flame

• Chose Cleansing Flame over Storm of Holy Fire if playing in a party. Otherwise Storm if solo?

20. Pal - Penetrating Empower

I know Magran would be a much better choice for a Fire Paladin but prefer to RP benevolence. Any thoughts or tweaks and advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your assistance and constructive criticism :D
