I got some missing superblock sometime in the past while assembling the array. Recreated it using mdadm -C with the same parameters for the raid-level and raid-devices and it did not touch my encrypted data. I was able to mount just fine after that. I always thought that mdadm would touch only their own superblock when creating. Though at that time i had a degraded array and my array is built on partitions , not the whole disk.
