Worst Outcome Possible

[Lerris]

Come on stupid. Positioning is tactical? Are we in the front lines of Omaha beach?? There is nothing tactical about having to stand in front of or behind a mob. Timing I'll take, but giving the benefit of an added debuff on top of some extra damage?

From http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/tactics

1
a : the science and art of disposing and maneuvering forces in combat
b : the art or skill of employing available means to accomplish an end

So yes, positioning is tactical. If you disagree, then you are making up definitions of the word "tactics" to suit your own needs.
