what do u think about Executioner? How is it compared to Blade of Cunning?

Have u considered to take Unyielding?

Blade of Cunning is better, you spend 2 less skill points and you get more DPS from it, where with executionare you spend more points to get the low life damage bonus, which i dont think is necesarry, its really only useful for very high life bosses, blade of cunning is useful for everything.

i use level 20 gems because my dps is high and it procs on reflect easily, usually leveling CWDT around level 11-12 is good.

I was wondering that too. Thanks for answering.


I've got another question if you (or another kind soul) has a minute at some point. I'm not sure whether to take the Skill Point or Endurance Charge for the Merciless Bandits reward. What are the pros and cons of each? The skill point seems a bit more useful at this stage of the game, especially since I only have one Enduring Cry at the moment and it's slotted to CWDT, but I'm guessing later down the road if I take a stab at Atziri (or Uber) that the extra survivability from the extra endurance charge will be very valuable. I'd like to tackle end-game stuff with this character at some point, so I wasn't sure which will be more useful in the long run.

Personally i took the endurance charge because at high levels you already have enough damage and life for everything, the damage reduction and imortall call duration seems more useful to me, and for atziri trio or very nasty bosses the extra seconds of immortall call are very useful.

@Victor

The duelist area around lvl 60-70... You took the life nodes first or went up for damage, range and etc.?

I went for the inner duelist area first(damage, range, life, attack speed node) and then the life under it, keep the 0.6% point for later though, its not so useful early on.

Hey great guide! This is my first Marauder and I am following your guide. Currently level 30 and havent died (i am on softcore though) just wondering when you suggest switching to cyclone.

I think you can safely switch to cyclone at around level 40-50, you should be able to have enough life and regen to sustain it without problems.

What do you think about adding a curse on hit sequence to get vuln out for extra dps?

You could use a second cast when damage taken with ice nova-curse on hit-vuln

Sounds good but that's 3 blue sockets. ^^
P.S how good is Doomsower unique sword for a cycloner? It has 450 total dps, while my sword currently has 500. But the Doomsower has those gem bonuses, how good would they be?

One question: on the OP you said that on your chestplace you have 4 gems (Vaal Cyclone - Increased duration - Life gain on hit - Endurance charge on melee stun) but still you can put 2 more gems on it. You simply dont have any (and we just need a 4L chest) or u simply forgot to mention? Thanks in advance.

Hey doom , got an important question for you. What is your current listed attack speed on cyclone ?

Need to know how effective is LGoH when coupled with this attack speed. Or better said how much attack speed would make LGoH efficient for a high life build like this or any similar one.

3b isnt too hard to get, otherwise you could just self cast the curse

Max roll has almost 500 pdps, Its very good for cyclone too, but the added fire doesnt apply to cyclone because its a green skill, not red, so you only get the extra AoE increase. I would use the sword you already have though, no point in buying another one since the difference wont matter really.

i have 3.6 attacks per second, 2.5-3 attacks is enough to make LGOH work well

added screenshots of life and defenses in the gear section

I tried this setup but it doesn't work. I cast nova on hit but I dont apply any curses...



Does it have to do something with a socket order?

EDIT: Tried different order and still the same...



EDIT: I found out that you can't link second trigger support... Fuck.

Why are you using a gem slot for LGoH when you could just get 6% life leech from an amulet +6% from rings/gloves if you need it. Or even just blood rage. Especially as 2h and change to cyclone LL should be way better than lgoh.
