This is my first time playing Warhammer, i'm playing as a Marauder and i'm kinda enjoying it, but I don't know if i'm playing right as a Marauder, I think it's normal since I don't know half of the **** I'm doing in the game, so I would like to see if there is any kind of guide that can help me out a bit.

what kind of guide? like how to build and spec the class?
If so their are 2 build styles: Sav + Brut and Sav + Monstro
Sav + Brut is the higher dps single target build
http://waronlinebuilder.org/#career=mar ... :5194:5204:
As you can see the selected tactics are piercing bite and growing instability, the remaining 2 tactic option are up to you as mara has a lot of good tactic options:
1.Deadly clutch
2.Flanking
3.Feeding on fear
4.Deeply impaled
5.Brute force
A + stat tactic like brute force will not be necessary down the line once we can soft cap strength with better gear
Sav + Monstro:
http://waronlinebuilder.org/#career=mar ... :5194:5204:
This spec does less overall dps than Sav + Brut b/c no 50% crit tactic, it is focused more on AoE, open rvr, warband stuff
Ill let some one better at mara than me talk about rotations but normally you want to apply your heal, armor and wounds debuff on a target and then attack in your brutality stance
This is because sav is your debuff stance, brut is your dps stance and monstro is your defensive stance
switching back to sav to reapply debuffs, when in brut you want to attack the target with flail, impale and giouttine.
The armor ignore from weapon skill, piercing bite and impale attacks to the back all stack.
When falling back/retreating detuant and switch to monstro stance
For renown i STRONGLY suggest atleast 2 points into futile strikes, mara has one of the worst base inatives in the game and as such one of the highest base chances to be crit. i also suggest atleast 1 level of resolute defense, afterwards the rest of the renown points distribution is up to you

If you can't figure out rotations for Mara on your own you should probably find an easier game to play.
Other than that, make sure your str is soft capped(orange numbers as opposed to green) and press detaunt occasionally.

Rotation is the "cherry on top"of mara play style.
Imao y start from pulverize and thunderous blow ( both y can use on brutality) turn on Savage and use Tainted Claw and Cutting then back to the Brute and use mutated agressor and then guillotine.
You just need a little bit of cold blood and planning , that all.

Wounds debuff always first! then go for toughness->armor->heal debuff and start bursting. If you attack a melee/tank bring pulverize into the rotation.

wtf.
Armor debuff > (Gut Ripper if u can) Wounds debuff > Healdebuff > (Touch if Instability if u hit healer) Brute > Guillotine > Pulverize or Impale spam or Convulsive Slashing in some situations.
Repeat.
