LeeMerriman Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 How squishy is a Marauder for solo leveling? Been thinking about rerolling one of them, but if they're as difficult as they seem to be from the posts (Dying to nice, normal mobs with one strong..? What?) I'll probably avoid it. Extra information: I don't get stuff like rotations and stuff the "hardcore" MMO players use. I don't give a **** about PvP, I want to get through class stories, level up, etc. I hate dying because you die 4 times and you're either sitting there for hours or respawning a mile behind and running all the way back again only to repeat the process.

Kibaken Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 PvP/Space/Flashpoint Dailies to level. You should be doing those anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeMerriman Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 For what it's worth, my main goal is to get around level 30 and do flashpoints. Probably get to the fleet, do BT to 14, head to Dromund Kaas, quest from there up to 30 or so. Easy enough with Marauder without understanding mechanics of MMOs very well?

grifoney Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Disregard the posts that suggest you have to outlevel content zones in order to succeed. You do not. I found an Annihilation spec very efficient at dealing with difficult mobs. Quinn is a great boon and most times you should come out of a strong/elite fight with 80-90% health. I have levelled a deception Assassin and a Marauder to 50 and I found the mara by far the more fun of the two (empirical evidence notwithstanding.) You already know about mobs and some tactics already, for you state that you are rerolling. Therefore just target the weaker adds first and let Quinn keep you up. If you take other companions you need to moderate your gameplay accordingly. As others have said, there is no difficulty levelling as a marauder as long as you pay attention to your cooldowns and plan ahead. Perhaps this is why some struggle. *Shrugs* who knows.

Xerain Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 If it makes you feel better you have to be 4 levels above with Mara i did it at equal level with sentinel and sentinel is harder to level than marauder because you don't get your healing companion till after taris.

JuIiusCaesar Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 dont see why people have such a hard time with the quests, for the most part i fought all the class bosses when i was 3 levels below the recommended requirement. however i did use quin and occasionally the odd med pack. if your having trouble with a certain section i suggest hopping into your fury and crashing it right into the boss that your having problems with. if your wondering how to get your ship onto the planets surface, speak to nem'ro the hutt on hutta.
