Revision 8

Overview

The Marauder's Halberd is a two-handed weapon in Crimson Desert that pairs solid base damage with a chance to land critical hits. At 15 Attack Power with Critical Hit Chance Lv.1, it matches the Bonepit Halberd in raw damage but trades the speed bonus for a critical hit bonus instead. The name suggests this weapon was designed for, or looted from, marauders and raiders who prefer weapons that can end fights with a single lucky hit.

Halberds occupy a unique space in the two-handed weapon lineup. They offer both thrusting and sweeping attacks, giving you more moveset variety than a pure spear. The Marauder's Halberd leans into a damage-spike playstyle, where each swing has a chance to deal significantly more damage than expected.

Combat Tips

Play the Marauder's Halberd the same way you would play any halberd: use the reach to keep enemies at a comfortable distance, mix thrust and chop attacks based on the situation, and dodge out when enemies close the gap. The critical hit bonus adds a chance for unexpected burst damage, which is especially useful against bosses where every extra chunk of damage matters.

Since you cannot control when crits happen, the best approach is to swing often and let probability work in your favor. Get as many clean hits as possible during each opening, and the Marauder's Halberd will reward you with occasional damage spikes that speed up the fight.
