| info= Geared toward versatility and prolonged deployment in hostile environments, Marauders represent the cutting edge in today's warship technology. While especially effective at support suppression and wreckage salvaging, they possess comparatively weak sensor strength and may find themselves at increased risk of sensor jamming. Nevertheless, these thick-skinned, hard-hitting monsters are the perfect ships to take on long trips behind enemy lines.<br><br>Developer: Duvolle Labs<br><br>Duvolle Labs manufactures sturdy ships with a good mix of offensive and defensive capabilities. Since the company is one of New Eden's foremost manufacturers of particle blasters, its ships tend to favor turrets and thus have somewhat higher power output than normal.

The Kronos is the highest DPS Marauder, but pays for that by being the shortest ranged. The Kronos struggles in solo PvE due to its awful range when blaster fit and its poor tracking and low damage when rail fit. Despite its marauder ability to use armor reps to shrug off 200+ DPS before its ridiculous resists, the Kronos struggles with capacitor. In fact, the Kronos ironically has more cap issues than the [[Paladin]] due to the Paly's bonus to energy turret activation cost. Despite these drawbacks, the bastion module can cover a multitude of sins, and the Kronos still sees use as a solo PvE ship for L4s and anomalies. The Kronos shines best in fleet PvE operations such as [[Incursions]] and [[Forward Operating Bases]] where its weak capacitor and lack of application are less of an issue and where its insane damage are highly valued.
