The DEFINITIVE Guide for Picking a Mariner Build

[@Pricey06]

This is incredible, thanks so much for pulling it together. Such a massive help! I've just made a River Hobbit Mariner and had no idea what I was doing!

[@Miloascape]

I'm glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful. My Mariner is also a River Hobbit, and has quickly become my favorite to play.

[@nailbomb4443]

This is the best damn mariner video ive seen yet. Thanks so much. You got a new sub.

[@Miloascape]

Awe thanks!!! I'm so glad that you enjoyed it :)

[@Ngaemond]

Excellent video. I just bought Mariner using Lotro points and have been leveling her. Had trouble at first. After watching your video she pwns mobs with ease. Now also working on better way to organize skill bars.

[@Miloascape]

really happy that this video helped you. thanks for watching.

[@BagOfBurgers]

Just came across this and it helps so much. I rolled a mariner n Angmar and it’s been rough trying to figure out. Now I just have the combos set on my bars as is with the use a n cooldown stuff above it on top. Works like a charm

[@Miloascape]

Fantastic!! You’re gonna have so much fun!

[@homelessbird2819]

Thank you for the videos, Miloa! I haven't played LoTRO in a while but I'm planning on giving it another go; I miss the atmosphere, lore, and community.

[@Miloascape]

That's fantastic!!! Come hang out with us on Brandywine :) Got a great group of peeps ;)

[@danieljosephclementrikhars7170]

Great video, Im levelling solo mariner now on difficulty 7 and feel I only find success with the yellow line. Its really hard to find any info on the class so thanks for this :)

[@Miloascape]

Glad you enjoyed it. Be sure to check out my Khorbo T4 on blue mariner for an amazing rotation. I love the oathies!

This guide is amazing! Thank you very much!❤

[@Miloascape]

so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@wilbain1]

Thank you for this guide and the Reddit accompaniment. I have just purchased this class to play on the new Angmar server and I'm wondering if you'd recommend blue or red for Fearless. I do prefer to engage the wraiths (even mourning) when landscape soloing rather than a beating a hasty retreat.

[@Miloascape]

My personal preference would be blue Mariner, simply because (1) it gives me the most dps AND (2) it is the most survivable at higher levels because of the heals and buffs that you get. Good luck, and let me know how it goes.

[@wilbain1]

@@Miloascape Thank you for your timely response.

[@Harry-hyl]

Not OP but I did fearless +3 with blue to 35 and then changed to red. Prefer red because the wraiths are a dps race, the self healing and buffs don’t do enough against their burst damage to justify blue. I can only beat shadowy wraiths. Will change difficulty down to fearless now since I’m 50. It was annoying at times, if wraiths spawned when I’m not full health it would be a very quick death.

[@Miloascape]

@Harry-uq9qd that’s good to know. I think for solo play red is great.

[@mirage8753]

kudos for the guide

[@Miloascape]

so glad you enjoyed it.

[@Zenislav]

Amazing video. I see on chart you did not use Feint. You use it for aoe and heal or?

[@Miloascape]

Hey I only use feint for survival :) thanks for watching

[@Zenislav]

@@Miloascape Btw how do you use Check-Step - Disengage heal as red or you ignore it? It seems like I can never get in blue to activate Disengage.

[@Miloascape]

@@Zenislav i just ignore it when in red. much easier when you're in blue

[@Zenislav]

@@Miloascape Cheers

[@Limitless.shorts]

a very informative video. make a leveling guide for the class to level 20. keep up the good work

[@Miloascape]

glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the suggestion.

[@MarspotatoDamon]

Excellent. Thank you.

[@Miloascape]

You're welcome!

[@daan1997yo]

Hey there! Good guide, I took some pointers :) One thing tho, I dont see salt sea blade in your combos, or marked foes!

[@Miloascape]

You're correct! This was a very early version. Salt sea blade and marked foes are important if you're running in a raid. My current blue line rotation incorporates both.

[@Jnaathra]

Sometimes the newer classes confuse me. Like if I want a challenge I understand why you might pick this up. Ultimately though it feels like you are at a disadvantage to classes that have no such drawbacks (self stun).

[@Miloascape]

I agree some of them are not easy to play and seem to be copies of other classes just with some changes… like the blue mariner is like a red cappy for example.

[@hans-jo666]

Did i miss the traceries for YELLOW Tait Line ? (i saw the chart for red+blue) and is there even a kind of rotation, or as i mention more situation like action ?

[@Miloascape]

Great question. I did not do a yellow line, because in a raid situation burgs are better than mariners at what they do. You can go blue yellow, instead of blue red, to pick up what you need utility wise in yellow imo. For yellow you'd want to pick up the stun, which when you use it will vary based on what your raid leader asks you to mez.

[@zekemcmanis3763]

Any chance for a copy of those flowcharts? They are da bomb!

[@Miloascape]

Hey. as requested the link to flow charts can now be found in the video description. Happy hunting!

[@Immortus29]

This vid is much appreciated! I subbed.

[@Miloascape]

Welcome! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@TheAganthor]

Great giude! Thanks :)

[@Miloascape]

You’re welcome

[@fichtellukas5572]

I like the style of the class, the only thing I'm concerned about is the amount of attack skills on it. I would have to bind like 15 keys.

[@Miloascape]

I have 20 and it still doesn't feel like enough lol

[@gaven9763]

Awesome! thank you so much.

[@Miloascape]

You're very welcome!

[@shotadevdariani7170]

any build tips for level 50 on Mordor legendary server

[@Miloascape]

I’ve heard that red line is good on level 50. Best tip I can give is to make sure you try and reach reveal mark if possible, haven’t tried it. Simply because it’s you’re major debuff that increases your damage significantly

[@gaven9763]

Btw doing Thrust > Sweeping Advance > Compound attack > Lunge dont you lose the 75% to finishings damage from advance for Lunge? Or what exactly is a finisher?

[@Miloascape]

I thought so originally as well until I parsed at the dummy for hours. Compound attack has a larger contribution to lunge than advance. But I’d suggest you test those for yourself.
