Guild Wars 2

Marauder + dura runes

Or

Zerk + pack/str runes

For wvw solo roam gs/axe/shield

Maraude + Dura provides a bit more sustain. Probably better for the condi heavy roaming meta.

or… zerk + dura runes…

Dura > anything. If you’ve dura, don’t ever use mara instead of zerker.

If you run dura you don’t need mara. you dont need mara on warrior. If you can’t survive on a warrior with 20k hp and stances, with shields, RR, godlike stability, and all of the other stuff that you can do. Honestly I will make the case that you can’t play any other class.

Anyways. I used Mara before on warrior but when I did the only thing that I ran that was Mara was a chest piece and thats all. Some people Run Just weapons mara only. Full mara is not only a waste but its totally unnecessary for a warrior. It makes more since on ele or thief or anything low base HP not warrior.

Mara could be good on warrior but not with dura runes. If you ran Pack runes and mixed Mara with some Cav for instance there is a lot you can do with mix maxing stats and you would come out with better stats than like zerk/dura.

I can’t recommend the last option of min/maxing a build becasue if you were good at that you would be here asking.

Zerker + scholar

I have 2 sets of Ascended marauder armor. One with Defender Runes for pure solo roaming/duelling and one set with Durability for small group/zerg fights. Use zerk accessories.
