Nice armor mate! I found that US was not worth having back when it cost 4 points to get to it, but if it is only a 1 point deal, then GRAB it! I haven't messed around with this build in ages but with the recent nerf to leach and Vaal Pact, my new build has become to much of a glass cannon and can no longer out leech reflect maps with -max mods... another build ruined -_- but that't the nature of the beast apparently.

I just might pick up where I left off on this build. Either that or re-up my subscription to WoW... ugh.

Thanks Dragon, I specced into US last night and what a diffs! Although you take way more hits (the Es activity increased greatly) at least you are not standing still doing nothing while the hits drain your life, you can now actully run like hell haha.

It was only 3 points away and the fun US brings back is worth the 3 points imho.

I also specced out of most ele dmg nodes just for those ele ref maps and swap faster attacks and infernal blow with added fire dmg and double strike like you said in the guide. Works well. I also noticed with only phys dmg nodes taken in the tree, those unexpected ele ref packs dont hurt as much anymore...which is great!

I heard a lot about dizzy dragon :) just a pitty that they nerfed stuff again. Would be excellent to have you back on board and battle the way to L100 :)

OH, and did a series of 78 maps yesterday with a group...didn't die! Couple of "oh shit!" moments but apart from that, all good!

Why are there skills missing?

I have noticed this as well. I came back to POE and wanted to try this build but the some keystones are indeed not there.

Anybody have a 3rd party build link for this or something?

True that they have moved around quite a bit, PoE completely overhauled the Marauder. Look at cdecarolis' skill tree or mine for a basic understanding of this build in patch 1.1.0

I'm not saying: make it like ours, but depending on your gear which should have arm\es, life and tri res, it should look similar. My tree for example is optimized for a L90 character running the 4 uniques that Dragon suggested. I'm not sure if cdecarolis has a Soul Taker but that shows that you can make a strong build without it. See P154

why doesn' t the author just post the skills again?

He moved on to another character called Dizzy Dragon, also mentioned that he is not playing PoE much these days.

Ok... I see way to much interest to ignore it any further. I will update the guide asap. Sorry for the delay. Didn't realize so many still played this build.
