Will they ever add melee DPS without positional attacks?

[Grimoire-M]

Melee already have plenty of incentive to be next to the boss. It's called melee range for a reason. I'd like to see a melee class that abandons positional GCDs and combos altogether, just to see what SE does to change it up. DRG and MNK are the only classes where it feels like it makes sense that there are positionals on the class. MNK is the fast positional class and DRG is the slow one. NIN and SAM both could survive without it.

That isn't to say I don't want to see a melee class without positional requirements, but put rear/flank bonuses in Cooldowns/buffs or make it distance based instead. You can do more than just dancing on the same corner.

Also the number of omnidirectional bosses makes me question why we have it at all still.

There are only 3 trials, 3 8-man raid bosses, and 3 24-man bosses, and 5 dungeon bosses that are omni directional(not counting deep dungeon and eureka mobs because those are designed that way because of no guarantee of a tank).
