Where does mark fall on the difficulty range as far as box disarming maneuvers go?

It seems like the only time I blow traps is when I try to mark the trap. Frequently, because of my high agility, perception, and perception boosting abilities, I'm disarming traps that are relatively high on my personal difficulty scale. The disarm mark will frequently help me disarm the trap more easily, but it also seems like the only time I fail is on the mark step. Is this because after I mark the trap I've made it easy enough that I don't usually fail?

It also seems like I blow easier traps on the mark as well, however. Usually if the trap is something that could kill me, I'll skip the mark and just disarm it careful.

It seems like each maneuver has a chance to succeed, a chance to fail, and a chance to set off the trap. Any ideas where mark is compared to other maneuvers in these areas?

Thanks!

disarm mark is more difficult than a disarm careful though if successful it will make the other disarm maneuvers easier.

so the use of mark would be for boxes that you can get on careful but have difficulty with on normal or quick or analyze or blind.

It's been stated officially that it's harder with a higher chance of tripping the trap than Careful, but nothing more than that. From my own experiences, I'd place it between Careful and Normal, a little closer to normal than careful.
