    Maybe the new melee DPS should have high-risk/high-reward front arc positionals.

    Sneak Attack used to be a front positional..... but I never used it. Especially on enemies with larger hit rings, it was more trouble than it was worth to move around to hit it.

    cause trick attack exists

    also the size of the hitring is irrelevant to the ability to do positionals

    you can do them inside the hitbox

    its small hitboxes that are the real asshole

    Even when Trick Attack was on cooldown, though, it still wasn't worth the time and trouble to use Suiton to Sneack Attack back when it was a skill.
