Iv just started playing my Maraunder and im looking for a brief list of different spec types.
Please include any useful information that comes with building that type of spec. ~ Cheers ~ |

If you dont know what are you going to be yet i suggest taking unwavering stance, iron reflexes and optionally resolute technique(not needed if you are going to be Caster marauder or Rain of arrows marauder), if u take these key nodes + all the hp nodes you can get around them, you should be able to do pretty much anything you want to, you could go melee, ranged or even caster. All that matters is to stack hp, all the damage comes from equipment and support gems.
I will list some of the easier marauder builts: 1) Ethereal Knives marauder, in this build you will be caster, therefore you would need to get some 30 nodes/or Intelligence amulet with intelligence mod, + some dexterity in your equips, once you reach ranger nodes(iron reflexes and hp nodes there) you will have enough dexterity without equips. It is really easy built and has high damage output without decent equips, i currently have 1100 dps on level 51 marauder (using 4 socket equipment) support you should use with EK is Added fire damage, Iron will, Faster projectiles(or Fork, faster projectiles will make you kill bosses slightly faster whereas Fork would make it easier to kill groups of mobs), faster casting( generally it is bad idea to get it since its already hard to manage mana with marauder. 2)Rain of arrows marauder, this skill never misses, there are plenty of guides for this built 3) Lightning arrow built, this is pretty much the most popular built in the game, it has highest damage output however it will only shine with good equips, at lower level it is pretty mediocre since getting gear with +weapon elemental damage mod is pretty tough i suggest you not to plan to use melee in later game however if u do get decent low level 1-40 or so, melee weapons, you should use melee skills to level then.

Thank you that's very helpful. I was curious of the different spec types that might fit into the same direction of Blood magic (if that makes any sense). Im looking for a pure tank build with good of aoe threat/dmg

Well if you want to be melee you could do something like this http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgEAxthYY1BQjM_2SF8_VEnnUu8Oud3yL9SPGS4n7ayqcql82fPd9zL460GqFHEOPKcwFCBQRzpS37-GYFYEYVKfy2CIKLXvTkCgBS1gS3rvdO0hYHTxnrkY20OcDq0ppVuv3Q38xWegh3ZKfTqzNYadqrnNVvruDiP27_BOyDWS035aSDIJWfPAGpBVZp760h0Uj0bQ0M9lVcaboWe97m8Wbzbp42o=
Once you reach iron reflexes you should start using Evasion armour since it has higher armour value. You would have most survivability with Lightning strike, you should use gmp, elemental weapon damage, life gain on hit(or life leech at high level), faster attacks(or added lightning damage with high quality) You could take more life nodes than i took, also you could take some endurance charges nodes, though i must say that it is really tiresome to keep up charges at all times so i dont think its worth it.
