most notable being marauder's ability to spike damage, particularly AoE damage. I would argue it has the highest AoE potential of anything in the game.
To get a sense of what I'm talking about, go gather a bunch of mobs, get maim up, pop berserk, internal release, b4b, raging strikes, and spam overpower until 500tp, pop invigorate and keep going. Look at your numbers, compare to dps jobs, then stop posting on the OF.

Utility as a MRD:
-Goad
-Perfect dodge (revelations, death sentence, flatten)

It has it's weaknesses but, if you can make MRD work in raid, and play to it's potential, it can be lethal and fun even.

I've played mrd in all the raid content the game has.
Do you reeeeeally think perfect dodge > Defiance and Berserker? Hmm... You have a problem.

Plus, you can't beat DRG, WHM and BLM aoe. Srry.
But don't be sad. You can fight against MNK and PLD for the last place, aoe wise.

Raging strike: 3min cd.
Perf. Dodge: 2 min cd.

Wow, so pro.
