Just because Storm's Path is the current best WS ingame (it ALWAYS was the best AoE WS of the game...MRD always had the best WS set of the game...Maim as the best 2k+ TP, Skull Sunder as cheap WS and Storm's Path as AoE WS) it doesn't means Maim wasn't nerfed...or Murderous Intent.

And, anyway, MRDs need to have fun while it last...balancing never was the strongest aspect of this dev team...MRD is now as ARC was before 1.19...and look what happened to ARC. I wouldn't be surprised in it having some retard "adjustment" at 1.20 that change Storm's Path to single target WS... :/
I would disagree about calling the adjustment to Maim a "nerf".

Tanking Ifrit I can use Maim every minute(or less with Keen Flurry) and deal 650-700 damage.
The real benefit here is that I can combine that with Bloodbath so I can cure myself for over 700 and save the mages some MP. Yes, Storm's Path is awesome, but no other WS is worth putting Bloodbath on over Maim.

If anything I would say make the recast on Maim 45 seconds, the same as Bloodbath.
But with Keen Flurry it may make that much of a difference anyway.
