Here’s all you need to know to create the best Marauder character.
In a world where many use magic, summon minions, and sneak around for surprise attacks, is there a place for a character strong but not too smart or nimble in Path of Exile? Can a character survive if they focus only on strength and ignore intelligence and dexterity? Sí, there is a place, and it’s a big ‘Yes!’ for raw strength, wild toughness, and dealing pure physical damage, and the Marauder is the answer.
Sin embargo, when you first play as a Marauder, it might feel more like a ‘No!’ The Marauder relies heavily on strength and physical abilities, but it doesn’t mean he’s simple. Asombrosamente, there are numerous ways to build this character, maybe more than any other in the game. Making even a small mistake in your build can lead to a disastrous experience. Here are some tips from the experts in Path of Exile to make sure your Marauder reaches his full potential.
Make Sure You Have Just Enough Dexterity and Intelligence
Some parts of the game can be a bit annoying. Pero, like taking medicine, the Marauder needs to tackle the necessary stuff before diving into the exciting parts. There are certain minimums to hit before fully committing to a build or having some serious fun.
Equipment and gems demand at least 100 points in both dexterity and intelligence to be usable, and there are some that the Marauder can benefit from. Experts suggest reaching 100 in both of these secondary stats. Después, it’s all about stacking up that strength for the rest of your journey.
Just One Guard Skill Gem Is Enough
Whether you’re aiming for a tanky or damage-focused build, having one guard skill gem is a smart move. Sin embargo, keep in mind that only one guard skill gem can be active at a time, and they all share a cooldown. Entonces, choose your favorite, stick to it, and avoid spreading out your levels among different ones.
If the ideal guard gem for the Marauder doesn’t drop by Act 3, you might want to explore the world of trading to get it. Having the right guard skill gem in place makes completing Maven’s questline much more achievable for players.
Health Isn’t a Shield
Without much effort, the Marauder naturally has the highest health in the game, even when focusing on damage. Sin embargo, if the game was all about having tons of health, it would be too easy, and Path of Exile wouldn’t be one of the best free games on the Steam Deck.
Utilize gear stats to maximize spell resistance to 75% and stack up armor buffs in the passive skill tree. Experts recommend not going out of the way to boost health after reaching about 200% in health buffs. A Marauder with full resistances and 3,000 health is often better than one with 10,000 salud.
Stick to Melee
While players may get creative with builds in the Forbidden Sanctum, there are limits to what the Marauder can do.
Though it might be tempting to use a bow for physical damage, the passive skills that boost bows are on the opposite side of those that enhance physical damage. Además, melee damage boosts are right in front of the starting location, so it’s better not to overthink it.
Consider the Chieftain
When experts rank the Ascendancies, the Juggernaut and Berserker usually rank lower. The Juggernaut’s damage is weak, and the Berserker tends to harm himself. While players can play their way with any Epic Games Store free game, the Chieftain has a higher ceiling. The Chieftain offers warcries, tótems, fire damage, life leech, y más, adding complexity to the Marauder’s toolkit.
Go for Fire Damage
While many elemental effects may seem appealing on the Marauder, it’s best to focus on a single element, and fire is the preferred choice for high-tier players, especially due to the benefits of the Chieftain Ascendancy.
Get Blood Magic
Running out of mana during a tough battle is a common issue for amateur Marauder players. Blood Magic borrows from the life pool, removing the mana pool entirely. Despite seeming risky, the Marauder’s large life pool and various ways to leech health make it a worthwhile investment.
A Warning About Crit Build
Critical strikes are usually associated with Witches, guardabosques, or Shadows due to their natural boosts for critical strikes. Those attempting a crit build with the Marauder need to focus on gear, habilidades pasivas, and gems that stack attack speed, requiring more effort compared to classes with a natural advantage in critical hits.
Try Area Of Effect Support Gems
While most area of effect support gems are linked to intelligence active skill gems, some support strength active skill gems. These are excellent for the Marauder, enhancing spells like Earthquake and Sweep.
Lead The Way
Being the toughest member of the group, the Marauder should be up front to draw attention from spellcasters and squishy classes. This positioning benefits the Marauder, and taking out smaller mobs before the rest of the party arrives reduces fights to manageable units, making it easier to deal damage, even as a damage dealer and not just a tank.
