    Monk was my first 75 in XI, my first 50 in XIV, and it's definitely going to be my career job in ARR.

    My only problem is that I don't understand the difference of "flanking" and enemy and "attacking from behind" and enemy. To flank is to attack from behind the enemy, so is there a difference? Or is this a sorta weird translation?

    Flank is from the side. So you need to stand at the left/right of the mob.

    A flank is to the side. So I just go from the opening in the enemies position circle(the back) to between where the lines start and where the arrow is(the front) and i get the flank bonus.
