    Well the marrows kind of lost their use when they implemented the genies to the game. Anyone can now attack magic and physical at the same time. Using a marrow would result in getting a hit for the resistance that is lower.

    For PvE, I would suggest you to max the physical marrow and use it when you know that you will just receive physical damage. Keep the magic one on level 3~4 so you can use it to increase your mdef for a bit when needed. As soon as you are demon, you might as well get demon magic marrow.
    Feel free to PM me for help.

    i have demon physical marrow. when u have demon bell and demon physical marrow u get 30K+ p def.... now add balance (genie skill) to that and u'll have 30k p def and magic def for a short period of time, this is extremely useful in TWs, specially with all these R8/9's running around.

    but for ur current level its not very useful or important and other skills should take priority over physical marrow.

    Balance was useful back when it just came out and lasted 15 seconds. After the nerf, its duration is too short for it to be worth it imo.

    I had balance for a week when it first came out for cata pulling (yeah I know I shouldnt be pulling catas as a bm but it was 6 cata wars and we didnt have 6 strong enough barbs back then), Decided even prior to the nerf the only benefit was the immune to stun during its duration, however it didnt stop any other move debuff so honestly wasnt worth the energy consumption compared to TE, so I restated it out of the genie after the week. TE's shield isnt quite as strong but far more spammable and considering I get hit with ultis around every 5-10 seconds in TW a shield I can spam every 20 secs is better than one I have to wait a Minute+ to reuse.

    Like everyone else said max physical marrow ASAP, you pretty much only use it for pve/surviving high damage phys classes in 1v1's so the mdef reduction wont tend to become an issue.
