Why is Maurader not a Heavy hitting DD Developers?

Play MRD DD when there are multiple adds. Run a parser and you'll see that WAR easily takes the top DD spot. THat's WAR's job as DD to take out adds quickly.

Thats good to know. To be honest I started with MRD because i love the 2 hander face smashers and i don't want to tank. I understand i might have too but just seems odd to me that such a immense damage machine would be an off tank.

It really is an off tank and fills that role quite well in certain scenarios. It's the same thing for every job in this game, there are certain scenarios that favor one class over another. It's also important to note that MRD doesn't come into it's own until after 40, so at level 8 you're not doing to see the damage output from MRD really at all. Also, I'm not sure how new you are to the game, but based on your level and the fact that you said you chose MRD, I'm guessing you're brand new to the game. Chances are you won't be able to play MRD/WAR in every instance, sometimes you'll need PUG or DRG if you want to stick with being a DD. You really should consider capping every job to get the most out of this game.
