FFXIV Marauder

Wednesday, July 10th, 2013

“Marauders are fearsome front line combatants whose arsenal of actions enables them to strengthen their offensive and defensive prowess, whichever the situation demands. Charging into battle with a massive axe, the marauder quickly draws the attention of enemies, and turns their attacks against them.”

Last month I informed you about the new FFXIV Pugilist Class. Continuing with the Disciples of War, today I bring you the FFXIV Marauder Class and overview. This is yet another class type from Square Enix in their epic overhaul of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn upcoming release, announced for late august 2013.

Keep in mind during this topic that everything herein is subject to change. While I do not foresee much changing in the near future, if anything does, don’t fret, I will keep this post updated with the most up to date information all the way to release.

So what is this FFXIV Marauder class? Its a warrior class that uses a giant 2 handed axes for sheer cleaving power. This heavily armored class can take the punches and respond in kind. This class really starts to shine while taking on multiple foes at once. While the class does not incorporate a shield, you are a little less defended than say the FFXIV Gladiator. But, what you lack in defense, you more than make up for in sheer damage dealing.

  • Once you reach level 30 Marauder and level 15 Gladiator you can acquire the job of Warrior.

Here are the current ability and trait breakdown for the Marauder FFXIV class.
