[1.2] Oldschool, cheap and noobfriendly "Sword&Board" Marauder
A little update, now level 52 in Invasion league.
Gears still crappy and no luck on item/currency drops. Still surviving due to the strength of the passives. Lol. In A3 cruel now and was nearly one shotted by Vaal. Close call. Again thanks Peterlerock for the build. |

" We all love the game, but there's no love in return. ;-) " It's not required, but you can, iE in your Cwdt setup. " Those are set. They are 100% needed. Now you add two of those: *Faster Attacks *Concentrated Effect *Blood magic Skip faster attacks to keep your auras up and have massive DpS. Skip CE to maintain big AoE. Skip Bloodmagic and drop Determination for biggest DpS, but need manaleech gear. You can try them all, it is not so hard to color a 5L RRRGB, RRRGG, RRGGB (only last one is a bit harder if it's not a str/dex-basetype). I'd go R+MS+MpD+CE+BM, but do whatever you prefer. 3.5 build: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2299519

" So I really, really like your build because you get so many defensive nodes with +armor and +block. I have a slow computer that often leaves me standing still in a pack of mobs for up to 5 or 30 seconds. Your build is the only one I've see online that is this tanky. Most builds are written by "pro" players who are so good they can get away with glass cannon builds. Yours is specifically noob-friendly and I love the way you introduced is such. Now here's the problem: I'm not a big fan of reave. I used it on a duelist until lvl 40 and just didn't like the style very much. I was just wondering how this build would work with another main attack skill. But I'm going to stick to your build until lvl 70 and see how I like it before I try to tweak it to my own purposes. |

" Actually: no. You should not stick to something you don't like, you should adapt to what you like. Any attack skill with any weapon works. All you gotta do is remove sword nodes and grab axe/mace/whatever. And use the skill you like. There's no secret trick behind it, just do it. ;) 3.5 build: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2299519

Build is coming along nicely after some much needed upgrades.
@ Lvl 78, still running 66-70 maps. After searching on poexyz, most swords w/ 290+ pDPS cost quite a bit! Would be great to have a 400 pDPS blade! :D Bought this on trade chat for only 1ex! After comparing I feel it's worth more. (Player said he was to lazy to look up price!) Ghoul Slicer Vaal Rapier Base lvl:66 Item lvl:68 Phys DPS:276.0 Elem DPS:64.3 Total DPS:340.3 Q20 DPS:362.8 Some other upgrades that didn't break the bank. However need more HP on gear. |

That rapier looks pretty sweet.

Saw someone in trade chat today selling a 500+ pDPS, no eleDPS for 130ex, it looked real sexy!

Keep looking at this one sometimes...
Why can't Piety drop me a weapon like this? Just once... http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/628703 ~550 pDpS, B/O 1500 exalts, mirror fee 60 exalts. ;) 3.5 build: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2299519 Last edited by Peterlerock#5171 on Mar 18, 2014, 3:52:48 PM
