So I just want to say the mechanics in this fight are a great challenge and I'm personally enjoying the process of learning it. However, its more of a mixed story for melee. While its a welcome change of pace, it shows that positional damage requirements do not work in a fight where the near constant act of dodging forces the melee DPS to move in a way contradictory to their positional requirements. From my initial assessment, the only moments when directional damage is being applied is when the requirement is being negated by true north. I'm not saying it never happens, but comparatively speaking to other extreme trials there is maybe 10% of the fight where positionals can be executed in a normal fashion.
