Knowing how well the marauder was geared compared to the lancers would be interesting to know.

Personally I find as I level Lancer against my brothers Marauder that my DPS "Hits" are lower but my Weaponskill damage far exceeds his but at 42 not at 50 so the end-game scenario is up for interpretation. Being a rank 50 Marauder myself I am ashamed to say I haven't actually played on it to check how it was buffed in 1.19.
