TyrionTM Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 So many people have posted here about the problems of Marauders and how hard it is to level up / pvp. I read these articles and even rerolled. I leveled an Operative to 40 (very easily I might add) because of all the negative posts. What a huge mistake. I decided to finish my Marauder and get him GEARED (all the best level stuff for each slot, running Flashpoints, doing Heroic 4 man Quests) and it made a huge difference. As a Carnage spec Marauder + Quinn, I ran into 0 difficulty! Now, I'm 46 and leveling / pvping as Annihilation and I would have to say to the low level Marauders just one thing... Stick WITH it! You won't regret your decision. If you want to be an in your face kinda player, Marauders can do it. Yeah it helps to have pocket healers in PvP and a tank putting Guard on you, but either way its still a lot of fun. Don't listen to the haters, push through. 40 is a huge level for us.

Lothahr Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 I could not have said it better my friend! Although there are a couple things I would change (Ravage channel time removed, Deadly Saber made a Static buff) I still love the marauder, play annihilation and watch your enemies melt before you!

TyrionTM Posted January 9, 2012 Author Share Posted January 9, 2012 I agree. There certainly are some changes I'd like to see, but most of them would be fixed by adding something that kept track of cooldowns or notified me when I had certain buffs.

keltonz Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 I could not have said it better my friend! Although there are a couple things I would change (Ravage channel time removed, Deadly Saber made a Static buff) I still love the marauder, play annihilation and watch your enemies melt before you! In my opinion, making Deadly Saber a static buff would be imba. The way it is now requires you to manage rage and your GCD. I definitely agree that there should be a better way to be notified of CDs up 30 Fury reached, etc. Too bad we won't have addons... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleftheria Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 yes indeed marauders are really rewarding 40+,its ****in hard to level between 30-40 especially but rest become easier. even in pvp the class is doing good(got operation gear and some pvp pieces) am annihlation atm,290k damage and 60k healing in warzone is quite insane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyrionTM Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 I guess it would be kind of imba for Deadly Saber to be a static buff. On another note, why do we have to look like Transformers for PvE gear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleftheria Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 yes ;p but why wouldnt you wanna look like transformers?! it looks awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drankathar Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 have to admit, having hit 41 last night, I am finding the class to be much better. Just got some good gear (prototypes and PVP gear) and some good mods for the armor I want (Foundry mara armor) and I am finding this game to be alot better. Also a tip for people not wanting to use our gear, get a IA's armor and take the mods out/put our mods in, ta da different look same stats.

Amonet Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 so basically what you're saying is Marauder is only good with a pocket healer and a tank guarding you....... cool story bro Thanks for sharing :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kailbane Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I just hit 30 and still have yet to come across any real hardships. This is just my opinion but in wow the war class was more challenging then say the retadin. However at later lvl's you began to have options on how to over come thees challenges. I see the same with mara, I feel to squishy I go Annihilation, I get my keybinds down packed Carnage becomes much more effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abishe Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 playing something that's broken, ain't called rewarding.but adapted, hugh difference their mate.compareable with someone playing a MMO with only his feet, sinds he lost his armshe might be good, but do not means that 95% of the population can do it. only thing i can agree on is this, if they keep it broken, i keep kind of unique.

shadowcreaper Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 i hate to say this but leveling with marauder has been pretty easy, Though most of the time im a good 1-2 levels above the NPCs which helps, and ANh+quinn really usefull, so pretty happy with my current leveling though a bit slow. PvP i think is where issues arise more than ever for us not so much PvE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialface Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I've found the 30-40 bracket very easy to level, at least in comparison with 18-25. With Quinn I'll burn through strong and elites with very little health reduction. Multiple mobs take a bit longer and a bit more health (seems to out dps Quinn's hps) but no real issues. I'm looking forward to the final levels. PVP is another matter entirely, but it's more of a realisation that you can't one shot your way through other classes and an acceptance that you need to stick with others. Saying that, if you do catch a stray enemy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
