Which is better when solo’ing in PvE, and doing things like dungeons and trials? For the longest time I’ve been using Elemental Drain, but I am beginning to wonder if Mark Target would be better. What do you all think?

    If you are a mag build, Of course eledrain is better. Sustian and damage increase for free.

    Mark increases your damage by more since it passively increases your crit.

    It doesn’t offer sustain though which is a big deal and reincorporating that sustain into your build will likely result in a damage loss even with the crit from mark

    My stamblade used Reaper's Mark in a dungeon last night. (It was a hilariously easy duo run.) But I can't imagine using it on a magblade. I also have trouble seeing why even a stamblade would choose use it in a group where there was a conventional tank applying Major Breach/Fracture.

    Yes, it's cool to throw on a trash mob for the on-kill benefits, but that's likely to work out well exactly when fights are at their easiest and you don't need the help.
