The body blocking has to STOP EME>
this body blocking is driving me nuts!
the idea of your own party mates body blocking you is dumb.
will this ever be removed ?

There's more to Tera than just pressing buttons, players need to be aware of surrounding while dealing damage. I remember a Slayer in RMHM kept up his rotation on me instead of the boss... TWICE!
yes there is more to tera than pressing buttons, but its overly stupid when you know what to do and do it only to fail due to collision from another player not moving. there is a difference between a player not knowing mechanics and dying and a player knowing mechanics and dying due to party member placement. as a warrior your best means to escape the color mech on 1st boss rmhm is leaping strike or charging slash and both gets body blocked by other players, until the revamp comes and you have a full stack of tc you cant use double roll its still too slow, try playing a melee with melee range sorcs and archers that will not move if they have the opposite colors and sit there dpsing not caring if you die or not.
Everyone has to deal with body blocking, doesn't matter whether its from a melee or range class... I even get body blocked when I tank on Lancer or Brawler. Waiting on others to change their ways will take forever, best is to shame anyone body blocking and figure out how to avoid getting body blocked.
Charging Slash and Charging Lunge were also an issue with Manaya in MCHM and and Dreadspire. Best way to deal with first boss of RMHM is to learn Red/Blue debuffs mechanic and not use Charging Slash.
i know the mechanics and the double timer, the point is you will get body blocked using leaping or charging unless you sit and wait outside or run a stop clock or 2 to be on the dot, while these other people will jsut stand there and block you. what body blocks do range classes have to deal with? they stand even if playing "melee" range still behind the actual melee dps, i.e. the ones getting blocked and killed are the melee dps not the ranged. even if you dont use charging and you use leaping strike you will still collide and die. we are talking about the issue of body blocking not the mechanics, by now everyone knows the double timer or should know it, but even knowing that you still get body blocked for whatever reason which is down right stupid.
It only seems stupid because it negatively affects you. Player collision in PvE just adds a layer of depth when fighting bosses, you should be shaming your party members for body blocking you. I didn't blame the game when ever I died from a body block, instead I called them out and we laughed it out.
body blocking has not always been around, just think back to WH days.. if we had body blocking on those lilly pads... = wipe.
its just so annoying, that's basically it.
out of party or raid body blocking i would understand but not IN your party/raid.
what's next.. friendly fire on ?
Tank is always in the front, healer won't be sitting right behind boss, you only have to look for 2 other ppl (if they're 3 melee dps). If everyone were walking and you got body blocked then it's unfortunate, try using movement skills next time; but if you were using skills without looking where it's heading it's your own fault.
