Removal of Positionals

[Aco505]

Positionals add a layer of complexity to melee jobs. We could debate on how good or bad it is, but it's there.

They could be compared to slidecasting windows, even if their effects are different.

Despite what some people are claiming here, you do require to be skillful when hitting positionals in a variety of environments. The comments I'm reading tell me that some simply don't play melee jobs enough to notice this. Removing True North because it makes them inconsequential?

Please, go and do P5S or any ultimate and try to hit every positional as DRG, because as ZiraZ has said, the goal is to hit them all, not that they're hard to hit individually.

Now, I could be biased because DRG is the "positional job" with 50% of our GCDs being one so there could be an argument that the other melee jobs should be more positional heavy but at the same time, not all of them need to be similar.

As a DRG main, I say no to removing positionals and instead making them more accessible for my job (e. g. allow WT and FnC to be pressed in any order) since we keep having to do them at all times no matter the point in our rotation unlike other melees; and possibly give more to the other melee jobs if they so desire it.

But at the same time, even if it stayed like this, I'd be fine with it.

Finally, the claim that you're just stuck in one place and moving a bit to the left or right is funny to me. What do you think you will do when there's no positionals? You are definitely not going to be dancing around the arena when no mechanics are going on. Positionals at least keep you awake and give you extra layers of consideration while performing your rotation. And most importantly, they are fun. Greeding and figuring out positionals in a new encounter is always an extra optimization step.
