what'd i do wrong?

do you mean circling the entire mob? i lock onto only one target, hit, and then run directly behind the same target, and repeat when he turns around to face me.

Yeah, that's what I mean. Don't do that. Lol Your dps are going to get super annoyed, and so is the healer if the mob turns and hits them with something or they are forced to move. This is also means you're getting hit from all sides and not able to parry attacks so healer aggro will be high. At some point the healer will rip hate of you're taking a lot of damage no matter how great you're rotating attacks.

Positioning is the tank's job. Just be mindful of that and try to figure out optimal placement so casters don't have to move and melee can properly position themselves.
