Templar or Apostles

Which quest to choose at Chancel of Light Cathedral for Mage/Rogue/Warrior

**Donquixoth** · 01-20-2017, 08:20 AM

They said in the beginning of the expansion:
Luminous for defense
Dark for attack
Maybe it will affect on the weapon proc.

My preference:

Mage and Rogue : Dark Apostle
Warrior: Luminous Templar

I read once awhile back, like in an expansion teaser, that you can change which order you choose but you have to go through all the ranks again...
So choose wisely!

i have completed the templar quest and now exalted i don't see any NPC in chance of light giving me option to change to apostle.

I got the mythical halo helm which looks cool but the stats is bad +40 all stats (no armor no damage no crits .. etc ...), why are we given a mythic halo helm when the stats is bad and worst that balance helm? Initially i thought is a quest item now i find it like a vanity but is is not really one.

Any one knows how the quest to change the from light to dark which NPC to go to ?

you can change by talking to Septum Uru to begin the questline, however you have to be very very sure you want to do this! You can go back and forth as many times as you like.

The old documentation that mention Luminous being defensive and Dark Apostle offensive based are not actually how they ended up as both of them acquire equal stats. The major difference is in boss mechanic relevance and also what can be crafted.

Thanks Cara .. I looked for Septum Uru but there's no option to change now he says "there is not enough apostle now to achieve balance"?. Anyway since there is not much difference i will stay on light a thee moment.

Also the light attunement weapon process for mage gun and scepter it buff other people and not the caster the AA looks bad as it doesn't do anything for the caster and not really beneficial if you run alone. At least the dark apostle can deal extra damage / curse mobs etc..

No you dont have to be exalted to proc those weapons. Or any below. And also those procs are not special to somberholt. Can be used even in pvp.

Im at 75k pts atm. Can change between the procs.

You're welcome. It changes by charging basic attack.

You are correct! There is a minimum requirement of Dark and Light that must exist at all times in order to facilitate the availability of the quest. This is to ensure that there is the ability to obtain all of the Voice of the Order set pieces collectively on the server. I would imagine within another week or so there will be enough to allow changing if you so desire.

The Benefit of the aura is more noticeable when running with other Exalted, as everyone's exalted buff applies to each other. This encourages mixed groupings when tackling end game content and beyond
