Best skill gems for strength based templar?

What would be the best skill gems for strength based Templar?

You've got it backwards. You should ask yourself which starting spot on the passive grid looks good for the skill combo you want to use.

and what way do you want to play YOUR strgth-templar... 1h/shield? 2h-staff?

im sure some people are willing to tell you whats "best" (in theyr eyes...). but poe is about possibility and variations. there are many very viable builds. this isnt d2... :)

Well I went for 2h staff build. I am extremely please with the character so far using bloodrage, enduring cry, infernal blow, sweep and feel unstoppable at level 25. Thanks everyone for the feedback!

well, with sweep u have one of the best strength-skills for a staff-melee-templar (imo) :)

I have low lvl melee templar, not wont make it pure str, using 1h scepter+shield. For main skill i want use ground slam stacked with critical chance, crit damage and weapon elemental damage supports, shield slam and elemental hit with same supports, critical weakness and enfeeble curses. In passives tree i going for Avatar of fire>get powercharge on melee crit>hp\armor increase>weapon elemental damage>melee critical chance>physical damage.

You super-almost-stealing my build :(.

I am doing that, except going Infernal Blow instead of Ground Slam and focusing on +AoE/Fire Passives.

If you look a bit the Templar skill tree you'll notice that class has been made for Infernal Blow and Glacial Hammer.

All those elemental weapon damage, burn damage, fire damage, elemental damage, Avatar of Fire. Everything screams for melee elemental attacks with staves (but that's optional, 1hers+shield is awesome choice too).

As far i know infernal blow\detonate dead\explosive arrow not scaling with elemental damage, was posted in one of 0.9.3 hot fix patchnotes, or it means that only infernal blow corpse expotion not scale with it?

They fixed it so those things don't scale off spell damage, but they still scale with +fire/elemental damage.

Personally, I am aiming to reach about 40-50% of enemy HP in the infernal blow explosion. Avatar of Fire is there to largely ensure that my single target attacks don't suffer for my decision to rely on IB for group kills.
