revial Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) If you're on Corellia, you are high enough a level that you can aoe CC to give you some breathing room if need be. You can obfuscate for more 'CC'/damage prolongation. You can CC droids, so two strong droids shouldn't be an issue, and there are a lot of strong droids on Corellia. But, yes. Hurr durr l2p k.

Temeluchus Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I haven't run into any problems like that, my deaths in Voss usually resulted from me not paying attention and dragging a silver elite patrol into my fights. Perhaps you need to gear up or it's your spec? I just recently switched from Carnage to Rage and I find silver elites and their adds laughable now and gold elites don't cause me any worry either.

Hizoka Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 If you are dieing as any class its because you are playing them wrong. Marauders have 2 players, really good ones and ones why constantly QQ because they lack the gaming skill to play them well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teladis Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) Don't listen to the trolls on the forums. I agree with you that we do need a major buff. Most of the forum trolls here will defend them acting like they could do it. Truth be told alot of them duo with a healer or someone else to carry. They are not better than most of us, and alot of the 50s in my guild see the same problem compare to other classes. We can die too fast for the damage output we do. Other classes can come close to ours without the risk. So just ignore the trolls telling you l2p and they can do it because now that they can do it with epic 50 gear, they want to keep others back. Most of them will just be used for the buff anyway since my BH can out damage them. Sad really, but hey bio will buff warriors Edited December 27, 2011 by Teladis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kattsu Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Go rage for those final levels because by now you'll be able to pick up quick recovery and you can just aoe smash mobs to death and bring quinn with ya too,(however i just hit 50 today went back to do my story quest only to find lv47 strongs hitting me for 1.2k but that's just because my gear is outdated lol before i hit 50 questing was alot easiler.

They do not need a buff what they need is for bad players to actually LEARN TO PLAY correctly instead of come to the forums and QQing proving that they are bad players. Marauders kill anything when played by someone who knows what they are doing, when played by the typical "wow is hard" player they cannot kill anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traejun Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Yes, a survivability buff would be nice. No, it's not "necessary". Marauders are a glass cannon. Learn to play with care and you won't have issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learn to play with care and you won't have issues. ^ This. Some extra HP or heavy armor would be nice, of course, but seriously is you play your class correctly, there shouldn't be a problem. It's just annoying if you aggro an extra pack of mobs during a fight, and even then it shouldn't be that much of an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haddion Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 It is quite simple. Marauders are the squishiest class in game period. Can you make it work? Yes Will you pull off any amazing solos like other classes? No Will you solo better than any other class in game? No Will people yell out at you and say they leveled 6 marauders( I lol'd) and its just that you suck? Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad really, but hey bio will buff warriors Oh look it's Mr. Maraudersucks play Bountyhunter and go qq on Marauder forums... Dude why don't you just leave the forums to ppl who do constructive feedback instead of whining ENDLESSLY about Marauder because you obviously have no idea how to play the class ? Anyway btt: Yes we could maybe use a little survivability tweak, however with all the cooldowns we have we can actually survive quite a lot of crap that gets thrown at us... Always use Cloak of Pain (and by always I mean ALWAYS when the cd is off and you are facing strong enemies), don't hesitate with Blade Ward, Obfuscate whatever you find and if you're high enough use camouflage to divert attention to your companion for a moment, or Undying Rage when you're already rather low... Force choke high priority targets to reduce their dmg output, let your companion get first shot so high dmg abilites that some mobs use on first hit get diverted onto him / her... Kite the melee mobs if you can, just cripple them and dance around them, recharge them... Disrupt their spellcasting if you can, disruption at the right moment can destrory someone's dmg output... Use predation instead of berserk if you need that extra edge survivability, although berserk usually is a better choice because you can burst them away (or heal yourself a bit if you use Annihilation specc) Use Intimidating Roar if you have it for a few seconds of quiet and disable droids wherever you can... that's all I can come up with but as you see we do have quite a few options to better our chances of survival good luck and may be forks be with you BestWurst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urcoconuts Posted December 27, 2011 Author Share Posted December 27, 2011 Of course i get mostly trolls telling me I'm bad. look I've been playing games since I was ten, I played wow for about 4 years on and off. I played the hardest class in pvp, the rogue, but pretty easy in pve. Im not bad, we just need more CC abilities plus most of my gear is only 3-4 levels away from my current one and there are no upgrades for them at this point (all orange, purple or blue) maybe its because im level 47 on corellia im getting 3 shot by level 48 mobs.

Marauders kill anything when played by someone who knows what they are doing, when played by the typical "wow is hard" player they cannot kill anything So true, Marauders (when played right) are practically invincible. I got to Alderaan 3 levels early and was taking on groups of 6 regulars without even getting to 3/4 health... that's when I realized that Quinn was on Passive mode and wasn't even healing me lol. I'm in all quest drop gear, and so is Quinn. Annihilation spec is OP! I heal myself with my crits and I'm just tearing through content.. all solo.

Omnipresence Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I'm starting to think we don't need a buff as bad as some classes just need a nerf. Powertech anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marauder is all about timing, cooldowns, and utility abilities not just loldps. if you go in with the expectation of facerolling and doing nothing but dpsing, you fail and are doing it wrong. i generally use Jaesa and she can take out the regular mobs rather easily while i concentrate on the strongs or above.

EnsignSorrow Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 SM/JS is balanced with SJ/JG. If you add survivability to SM/JS then you must take away it's great damage, or maybe you should just play SJ/JG. In my opinion, if I played SM/JS I'd use a tanking companion.

Vgbeee Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Squishiest? Not even close, try inquisitor. You can't seriously mean that. Inquisitors have so many tools to keep themselves alive that it's not even funny. In WoW terms, they're like priest, rogues, and shamans all rolled into one class.

If i'm having the same problem as everyone else here. It's not a l2p. The people say things are fine are not better or more skilled. They are just trolls. If I can't do it I know you or anyone else can't do it. 40-50 our defense is trash and mobs destory us. Compare to any other class we have the most issue.
