Templars are great for versatility, if that's what you're going for. It takes longer to hit the really 'versatile' point with Templar (Scroll Harvest at level 6). If you're anxious to get into the fray and feel like you're really laying the smackdown on something I'd go for a Mercenary. My own experience with the Templar (and this is from how I built it) is that without some magical assistance I'm hitting something with good intentions, but the durability IS nice.
