After several versions nerffing phys RATA (from 1.1.7.0 to 1.1.9.1), phys RATA becomes polarized:
Among all phys RATA, the relatively weak ones performs relatively reasonable, which still shows high tankiness but begins to show weakness in dmg, especially for those none-conversion ones. For example, none-set phys rata EOR now can only get about 110k phys rata, even with 4-8 greens, and it may take 10-12 mins to finish SR 75+76 (Me as a skilled operator.

1.1.8.0 note
I made some tests vs Ravager only (100% consistency), got around ~34 seconds fastest so 1 second slower than last patch and I did not fish a lot. It means damage is not decreased much, probably going to be really a little bit slower (matter of few seconds I guess) in crucible but won’t be visible by average player, in SR especially. Build stay as it is, scales still works well, no gear changes required. Do not be afraid to play it

Results were very good in all content, build is very safe and fast (and can be even safer with few cosmetic changes like crystals in jewelery or physique dump for HC players).

I’ve also played my own Retaliation builds and have no more problems with them than non-Retaliation builds, not sure what kind of Retal builds you’re playing.
