I don't think the rear is as dangerous as people make it out to be on endgame. All tail swipe moves have a cooldown on the boss and it's pretty safe.

Depends how good well your window timing is, and how much lag you can afford. Not to mention your own skill rotation, and movements of pt members.
Nothing worse then a tank, that runs through the boss and straight at you with a swipe.

Or you could be in flank

I guess... maybe it's just a pug thing? I've never had any issue with any tail swipe in my FC runs of Coil/AK. If anything, the tanks like that I proc Turn 1 boss tail swipes to relieve some of the damage because he takes time to cast the tail swipe.
Pug, but even good tanks do that(you will have to ask the tanks why). If they move to my flank, I just cut through to the opposite flank with no lost. (since most bosses are rectangular it's a short cut through)
And the lag..omg the lag, that red line is nowhere near and you can still get hit. Expect the worse, and everything becomes pleasant.
I will usually push it when I things are good, but I wouldn't stay in rear for one more second then necessary.

Ah, I get what you're saying. I can see the lag being an issue.Pug, but even good tanks do that(you will have to ask the tanks why). If they move to my flank, I just cut through to the opposite flank with no lost. (since most bosses are rectangular it's a short cut through)
