Disagree. This is an unintended exploit used by melee in many other games, examples hunters 5yard dead space, where it just doesn't make practical sense in a real situation. Example; if a man is holding a gun and you are running around him with a sword, are you saying it would be impossible to twist and still fire the gun? You are, and it's ridiculous, because really what you are wanting is a nerf to range to make it more simple for melee to kill them. You can already los and you do, but you want to further simplify your playing field by...making los apply to behind our very own characters. The human body has the ability to rotate 90 degrees, and with limb extension cover 180 degrees, I think the game already does a beautiful job of recreating this dynamic in a virtual setting.

Hunter dead zone was there quite by design. Requiring people to face the target they're attacking is quite by design as well.

Yeah, and when you do that in real life you have to actually do it yourself. You can do it just fine - much faster, really - in game by turning with your mouse. Heck, if I moved in real life the way I do in-game, I'd be vomiting all over the place.

Jugg tanks in pvp just get rolled.

It's not that they dispute they should be able to turn, it's more that they want the player to have to turn, not the character. And that's fine, if the developers are aiming for a more twitch-based combat system. But I don't think they are.

Gameplay explanation: It's there to prevent the stupidity we saw in WoW. Players running through someone and stopping a cast Realism explanation: A sith lord or an elite commando isn't going to "forget" who they're shooting at simple because they ran behind them Conclusion: Cry more. Use your interrupt/LOS.

Removal of autoface will limit my ability to play sorc and merc with just one hand and severely impact my multitasking. Do no want.
