feel like I'm missing a joke, but...

stay in the middle, unless its on fire (if the whole place is on fire, restart, you took to long). stay behind him, especially when he hops twice. templar is nothing more than a 2nd health pot to use while you're waiting for yours to cool down, don't put any trust into him. For my barb I perfer the Scoundrel for the ranged bow, higher damage than the other 2 and because he is a direct ripoff of the King of Thieves from Xena.
