If you’re a Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (SWGOH) fan, you’ve likely been keeping a close eye on the Marrok Q&A responses from the developers. In true SWGOH fashion, this deep dive into Marrok’s kit offers insights into his role in both Inquisitorius and Mercenary squads. The devs break down some of the finer points about how Marrok fits into the game, and there are some really cool synergies at play. Let’s break down the highlights!
Why No Empire or Nightsister Tags for Marrok?
A big question on everyone’s mind: why didn’t Marrok get the Empire or Nightsister tags? The devs clarified that Marrok is designed primarily as a Mercenary and Inquisitorius character. While he was briefly tied to the Empire in the series, his role didn’t warrant the addition of those tags for gameplay reasons. His synergy with other Mercenaries and Inquisitors, though, makes him a force to be reckoned with on the Holotable.
Purge Mechanics: A Core Strategy
One of the standout features of Marrok’s kit is his interaction with Purge. When Mercenary allies apply Purge, Marrok benefits by stacking Soldier of Fortune, a unique mechanic that boosts his offensive and defensive capabilities. The devs explained that this makes him particularly useful in Territory Battles and against teams that rely on revives. Bonus: Purge works in tandem with other Mercenary characters, ensuring that Marrok and his allies stay one step ahead.
The Omicron Impact
Players were curious about Marrok’s Omicron and whether it has value outside the Reva Mission. The devs confirmed that it’s highly beneficial in Territory Battles, especially in missions where enemies revive or deal percent-based health damage. If you’ve been struggling with those missions, having Marrok on your team might just be the boost you need.
Mod Recommendations and Synergies
Wondering how to mod Marrok? The devs suggest focusing on Health and Potency to make sure he survives long enough to dish out debuffs. His synergy with Inquisitors is also impressive, allowing him to dispel debuffs on allies while amplifying the overall offensive power of his squad(
What’s Next for Marrok?
While Marrok may not be required for Galactic Legends Ahsoka, he plays a crucial role in Baylan Skoll’s Mercenary Squad and adds some much-needed firepower to both Mercenary and Inquisitorius teams. Whether you’re planning to use him in PvP, Territory Battles, or just for fun, Marrok has a solid place in the meta.
Get ready to unleash Marrok’s power on the Holotable, and may the Purge be with you!
