it looks like you're chasing down offensive bonuses too aggressively. its going to be tough to survive in melee. since you are level 27, you should have 2 respec points unless you have already used them.

to start, i would drop the 2 cold damage% nodes and pick up 2 life nodes that are close to the templar root. that will look like this. two point change

from there you want to get more life, armor and mana shield. I would go ahead and get the armor/shield nodes closest to your root. that will look like this. 6 more points

so if you can stick it out for 6 more levels of grinding, you can raise your health by 36% with 30 hp on top. you would also raise both your armor and mana shield by 44% and increase all your elemental resistances by 10%. you won't be a tank but you should notice the improved durability. you can always just barter for the orbs of regret.

I do really well ranged, with a bow(arrow volley) and my lightning/cold spells but I feel like I need more firepower. I don't do melee much.

you want more firepower with the bow? you'll need a lot more dexterity to level up the bow gems. consider using wands.

Quite honestly it feels strange being great with a bow as a templar(lolz), so I dunno if i'll level that up. Need to use my spell casting.
