I actually think that Square Enix doesn't design encounters with positionals in mind at all, considering they like to make you run circles around bosses, use random movement patterns, or stand in front of their face for extended periods, which makes it feel a bit silly when you are pressing true north because it's clearly a bandaid fix for mechanics where Square Enix simply doesn't care whether you may hit your positional or not. I don't see how this is somehow a way of skill expression because personally it doesn't feel like it.

Honestly idk if you are serious considering you haven't even played melees other than SAM with it being your only job at 90, let alone cleared a single Ultimate. Though I do have TOP clears, etc. with 100% positionals hit.
