Devs: A Monk front-facing combo. (Positional Requirement)

A warped opinion from a warrior with a level 30 monk doesn't bother me at all. I am honored that he/she (and you) took the time to create an account just to post in my thread. /bow

When I started back in 1.0, you could attack from anywhere. They brought in the positional requirements near the end, and I never liked it. But I would be cool with it if I could attack from the front without a 40% DPS drop off.

Solo, small parties, duo, emergency kills, add ons from a boss; you get the point. It never sat well with me knowing that, for example: I need a choco tank to hold a mob for me in order to do decent damage to a mob.

It sounds like you should roll a tank class. That way you can attack the mobs from the front as much as you like without losing dps. And you don't have to worry about switching from a rear, flank rotation like you would on a monk. And you won't need a choco tank because you will be tanking the mobs yourself. It sounds like a win win if you ask me.

I have both tank classes geared, but I've been playing Monk 90% of the time, for years now. So the old "roll this" answer doesn't work for me.
