[Mara] Current state of the class?

[Moonbiter]

Patch killed best solo def meta build: full monstro + half brut.

Nothing got in return. Slight nerf for Sav build because of AA brut bonus reduction.

The only improvement is for Wb play in ST build.


Solo mara got (gut) ripped (

brut tree doesn't feel right. Impale on 10sec CD, Flail moved to brut. With Mutating Corruption tactic make Corruption a core ability at least.

with the recent class changes I wonder which tactic setup performs the best right now in terms of dps. I feel like "Changer's Gift" as well as "Mutating Corruption" are fairly nice tactics. "Piercing Bite" has only seen nerfs lately decreasing its AP down from 50% down to only 15%.

When using WS gems in gear, I feel like "Brute Force" is a must to increase strength to a decent level. Also I think "Growing Instability" is a must tactic. Same goes for "Feeding on Fear". I am uncertain whether "Piercing Bite" is still good enough, or if it should be completely replaced now with the recent nerfs.

"Mutating Corruption" and "Changer's Gift" seem especially nice for Brut Marauders as these increase WS quite significantly. Though tactic slots are limited and I am unsure which tactic setup is now the strongest.

I am running "Brute Force", "Changer's Gift", "Feeding on Fear" and "Growing Instability" now but still testing with "Mutating Corruption" as well.

When running Cookie Cutter Spec I think "Changer's Gift" is especially strong when switching Mutation to Brut for Guillotine as the tactic increases Strength and WS for 120 for 3 secs.

Mutating corruption does not stack with thrium proc .s
