I'm sorry but if that is what you enjoy while playing DPS I would advise you to play ranged physical dps instead. Arguably you get targetted by more mechanics as well so from the tiny insight this post gives me, it seems you should be right at home with ranged physical dps.

Now i'll admit i skimmed over this thread. I personally find positionals both fun and frustrating. The frustration comes mostly from how lately bosses just spin around like crazy; they're massive or they decided to create a insta death zone in said areas you need to land your positional. I guess they're not planning to change that considering how they're buffing damage to skills when not landing positionals and reducing True North's cooldown.

now for the fun part. it makes melees have a certain flow to them and I enjoy that in the classes. I personally enjoy having to pay attention to mechanics while figuring out how to squeeze that sneaky positional. For some people that is rewarding.

IMO they should stay. I do agree however that we need better visibility regarding landing or missing our positionals.
