RoR.builders - Marauder

That is the best single target dmg build.Switch deadly clutch with flanking/brute force etc play a bit with tactics. If you have that mara gear that has 25 % AA dmg buff + Black orc keeping 100% uptime with 25 % AA dmg increase buff for party and that with Brutality's mechanic may work pretty well havent tried it truely to say if it works but savagery is best for ST dmg.

Wat? Brutality is probably the most used build in the endgame.

Stack WS and enjoy. Corrupted Edge and leaving out piercing bite is my personal choice and surely debatable.

I got mara rr78, 3set spec and i`m caped STR with pot without tactic. So there is no need to use those. Then, i doubt that spec is an endgame.

This is the problem with having to many Mastery points to distribute. It makes it so you can pretty much get all the things you want, which pretty much kills the concept of specialization in favour of customization (which leads to meta configurations and actually kills customization as well) all together as well as making it really hard to ballance each path. Imo, there shouldn't ever had been more points then able to Maximize one Mastery path, and the bonus from Mastery levels should also scale exponentially.

I made a marauder build guide a while ago. feel free to look around:
Marauder Guide

there you can find a "sc beginner brut"-build
RoR.builders - Marauder

the difference between sav and brut is that basically you want/should go sav for when your team composition is uncertain as you can provide armour and heal debuff. But the tooltip damage is lower than the brut skills afaik. However, if you have for example a BG and WE (someone who can provide at least heal debuff, armour debuff optional) you can go brut, which is also quite decent in support play as you provide 10% more crit to everyone hitting your target with deeply impaled and decreased parry/block with pulverize. You can also stop kiting enemies with aoe KD and Wave of Terror. If pressure gets to high you switch to monstro for procc and still get decent dmg numbers because 9pts in monstro invested

Sure, if you're Str Capped without tactics you're free to use other tactics.
Mainpoint is: Go Brut, stack WS for AA-Damage. FoF is an awesome tactic but it makes you also kinda squishy before geared up.
Regarding "Endgame"... well... Endgame is City and you don't normaly start City with RR78 und Full Tri-Set. That's why str tactics and no FoF.

Brut mara is really good but require end game gear. After capping str, stack ws and melee power as far as you can. Sav is better overall but burt mara have better brust. Also keep in mind, brut mara is not suits to ranked play. Cheer.

I did some testing on constructs, comparing standard Sav/But killing time (16-17s) and burst (4000~) vs Brutality above rr 70+ and I got 20s+ and 3500~. Am I doing something wrong? How you get better killing time and burst using Brutality.
My rot: (MA) Impale, 3st Rend, CS into gilotine, finish spaming Impale.

Don't only rely on the constructs. I know what you mean. I also got the same results. But in pvp it is not like that.
