So I know this is going to sound kind of ridiculous, but I was wondering what people thought about using defense augments for a marauder PvP set. As a marauder, I find that most of my time in PvP is spent running around trying to avoid getting any attention, keeping predation up, and then trying to jump in and burst down someone who's already half dead, distract a healer, or something like that. If I ever try to just jump into the fray, I know that I'm pretty much dead immediately (even with proper use of defensives), faster than I can even get through a full gore window. I realize that the marauder is one of the few classes in this game that absolutely relies on support, and I know that we can be quite effective if that support is present. So, I'm not talking about situations where you have a preformed team in which you know you'll have someone healing you and you can take those opportunities to do damage to the opposite team when they present themselves. I'm not talking about ranked, either. I think this really just applies to solo queueing in random warzones. Anyway, I decided to try an experiment tonight with the price drops in PvP gear. I bought a full set of Jugg tank gear (to return afterwards), and I found that my DPS had basically doubled in the few matches that I did, due to my enhanced ability to stay alive. For the first time in a while, I felt I was able to do something other than just hemorrhage HP after dealing a mediocre amount of damage. Obviously, there's a bunch of stuff on Jugg tank gear that's useless to me (shield), but I was wondering if it might be viable to at least increase my survivability with a few defense augs on a proper marauder set. I know this isn't ideal, and that I might even just be better off with a DPS Jugg for pvp, but I'd like to hear the opinions of more experienced players. This experiment was limited to a few random matches with the jugg gear and a few matches with marauder gear. I didn't really have the time or resources to do anything more controlled or thorough. Could defense augs or maybe even a few defense/end heavy mods be viable for marauders in pvp, despite the drop in dps, or is this just a stupid idea altogether? After all, I figure that diminished DPS is always better than 0 DPS from being dead.
