it's wild that you would construe that from this chart, but i guess i shouldn't be surprised. on the contrary the class is extremely powerful, but the players who use it are simply clueless to the power it holds due to lack of skill or improper build/rotation. it's kind of like WH/WE where you require a little extra effort to play well vs something ez like choppa. many skilled dps players are playing mara to GREAT effect right now in warband, city and 6man gameplay - nothing wrong with this class tbh just the players who play it. i can show scoreboard from warband, city and SC where mara are owning against competent players and performing evenly or better than any other destro dps on their team.wildwindblows wrote: Fri Nov 22, 2024 9:18 pm Mara least played class for a reason. A class lack of everything.
Stances are clunky? How exactly? They ignore Gcd so you literally dont lose anything by switching From Savagery to Brutality and since they ignore gcd you can just hit Pulverize at the same time you switch, then Impaled and Guillotine if target is under 50%hp And switch back to Savagery. Only thing i would say about stances is that you shouldnt lose any of the stance procs if you switch to another. They are 5s duration so its just makes no sense to lose the proc, except Savagery proc because its 5s dot on enemy and only stance proc that doesnt disappear when you switch. And Savagery Dot is 505dmg 5s and 25% chance to proc which means its on 100% of the time,also reduces enemy AA speed for 33%. WL trained to hunt is 207dmg in 3s and have 10% Chance to proc with you or lion. So over double the dmg than WL. This should be changed so Wl/Pet have independent Trained to hunt procs so that becomes 414dmg in 3s when both WL+pet procs it.Fey wrote: Sat Nov 23, 2024 1:32 am Mara is underplayed because its mechanic is clunky and bad. Stances are punishing for the very feeble benefits they provide.
Worst mechanic in the game. SW can largely ignore it. Also, are there any real questions?
You are right. Mara seem really good on paper. However, It is really hard to play because stance dance doesn't worth. On the other hand, any other mdps (even dps dok, wp) much more better, less effort high reward classes.Sinisterror wrote: Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:40 amStances are clunky? How exactly?

RoR.builders - Marauder this is the spec for Single target mara, Switch Deeply Impaled to Deadly Clutch when needed. Mara has skills that no one else gets and more than 1. Mutated Energy 100ft 3s Knockdown can be used after disrupt, but you dont have to use it on target you disrupted can be used against anyone. Touch of Rot/Instability more powerful versions of wh/we skills that require stealth to use. I know no one never specs to Lashing power/Forked Agression Morale 4 but both of those(espesially Forked agression) is INSANELY powerful + 20sec duration.
I mean its definetely player issue if you think marauder is bad, its not. Its fun and powerful and has a place in Small scale/Warband/Pve
