It's really hard to decide. I don't know what level of STR/PS you need for reliable crushthrough, or whether 9 WPF and 1 ATH more are worth the 5 HP and 1 PS less. I personally played with many extreme STR builds (36/3, 33/6, 30/9), so I would probably go for the first build, but yeah...it's just a gut feeling.

Maulers want a little agi.  I would say 21/18 or 24 15 is the way to go for maulers otherwise people will just backpedal.

I agree with ranger bob.  If you go str extreme with a mauler, you will be slow as shit.   I like the second one better.

although with a back up 2h, the maul is great in crowds with high str.  :)

24/15 isn't enough for mauler, this is my build, and i tried it. It just doesn't get enough crushthrouhgs. I know Gnjus was very effective with 30/9 build, but that requires playing with some brains, not just rushing into a mob.
