Why did they nerf the final boss?

I can't believe they took away what makes Marauder Shields: his shield

Seriously though is there any reason they did that?

Yes.

The sound of iron shocks is stuck in my head, The thunder of the drums dictates
The rhythm of the falls, the number of dead's the rising of the horns, ahead
From the dawn of time to the end of days I will have to run, away
I want to feel the pain and the bitter taste of the blood on my lips, again

Maybe too many players were dying to him so they toned it down. Seems like a pointless issue but who knows what their actual reasoning was.

Becuase too many people where whining about how much skill they lack

Ignore my gamertag. It's actually Dragonzzilla.

Because people took that Marauder waaaay too serious. Seriously, people were obsessed about that guy.

My troll sense is tingling.

Wait, they took away what makes Marauder Shields?

Just when I thought I couldn't have another reason to hate the ending and extended cut, this -blam!- comes outta nowhere.

I'm a Mass Effect Fan and I find Marauder Shields stupid and annoying.

Yeah, how about they just turn it into a cutscene so you don't have to do anything

I don't think I've ever legitimately wanted to give something a negative score in my life before, but that's really what I want to do right now.

That doesn't really explain why they changed it though

How about changing something that actually needs changing

Somebody showed me the Scarab Gun in Halo 2 once.
I was like WHOA DUDE, WHOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAA
Then I sorta blanked out in a red haze and when I came to, everyone was dead.

They turned Marauder Shields into Marauder Health?

Those cruel bastards.

Becuase too many people where whining about how much skill they lack

Waitwhat. You mean people were so incapable of aiming a pistol that they were dying to a marauder? This brings a tear to my eye.

Frankly, I never even noticed it was gone, but that's because killing a marauder is childsplay.

I did notice it on my first time going through the Extended Cut, but that's because I was so shocked that they hadn't changed anything in the travesty known as Priority Earth that I was alert for absolutely any change I could see, and I noticed they removed his shield lol

Nahman Jayden, Eff bee eye. I herd that you're the origammy killah...

Because bioware wanted us to see the ending, thus shields job as protector of the galaxy was no longer needed

I don't remember that. At all. Then again I played the EC 5 months ago.
