    Wait if you're getting blocked by a player who is just standing there, that isn't getting blocked, that's just you running into them right?

    So if a pedestrian is waiting at a crosswalk for the sign to change and a car crashes into them, then it's the pedestrian's fault...?
  • as well as fixing bodyblocking I would suggest you stop putting AOE on the ground that ppl just stand in and fix all those mechaics that actually FORCE you to have to move when you DPS

    in fact just make all bosses loot pinatas kkthxbai
  • body blocking during SSHM pizza dance is cool

    I think it's all right. I'd rather have some realism to teach other players how to play a game than it being too easy. We just need to become skillful players, then everything will work out in the end.

    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 ?

    WHHM and WHNM were and are raids. There has never been collision in raids. Just be aware of your surroundings honestly. Out of years playing this game you are the first person I've ever seen complain about collision.

    In raid it can't be helped since there're too many ppl, but in a party there's no reason why you can't pay attention to your party's position.
    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.

    have you ever seen where melee range sorcs or archers stand? your movement skills collide with them and you stop right infront of them, iframing out is also too slow on the first boss of rmhm, you cant double roll or single roll to leaping or charging you will die.
  • body blocking is one of my pet peeves in the game especially for people who cannot help but stand in the wrong places...

    but my hate escalated after alliance was introduced...

    have u ever played kuma... u will know the true meaning of what body blocking is...

    sounds more like you're in the wrong place since you keep running into people...
    end reply.

    in general:
    this is a game about skill, not just spamming iframes and dps, heals or whatever with no thought or awareness of the fight and other party members locations in it. not that freaking hard to see where everyone is since your cam should already be pulled far out. never had an issue with being blocked because...oh my i pay attention and can keep track of the battlefield.

    movement is a mechanic and a damn important one in the game...not just yours but awareness of other players as well. you get blocked spamming some skill that's on YOU. that's YOU not paying attention, that's YOU having tunnel vision on 'deeps' or whatever.

    it's your damn fault, take responsibility for your own inattention.

    You want everything easy? You will be body blocked in real life. Body blocking is on every game, specially MMO, specially non-target combat needs it so. No. The only dumb thing I see is you mentioning it like this.
  • Imagine three melee dps in the same dungeon run.

    Where do they ALL need to be in order to deal better dps than a soggy noodle?

    If you think body blocking is not an issue I can only assume you're stupid, or you have never played a melee dps of any sort.

    Out of 180 degrees you can run out to, you picked the very spot where your range dps were standing still in, jumped into them and then blamed them for being there ? Hello ?

    Even if there're 3 melee dps, all of you don't have to be inside the exactly same pixel behind the boss to get back crit, unless you only know how to mindlessly spam skill buttons. Almost every melee skills in this game move you around bit by bit, and if you don't know how to use them to reposition while not losing dps then, as ppl say, get gud. Remind me of the few pug ninjas who backstabbed the boss, appeared behind me, then processed to spam all of his skills while being blocked, because not seeing your dmg pop up is perfectly normal.

    I mean, as everyone has said, it's not a problem if you just press "D" for a half second, it does get annoying but you just have to look around, assuming that you're melee because they most suffer from this, you don't have to be looking at the boss to hit them, point to him and start your rotation, while you're doing it, look around for dodge route for when the mechanics start. As long as you keep an eye out it shouldn't be a huge deal.

    its funny since i believe i saw you openly post about not being able to do rmhm, not trying ot be confrontational but there are more people in this thread that i know from multiple servers that i have run the dungeon with and i can tell you while they come here and tell people to get good or that they're bad they kiss the floor more often than not even while some here are playing ranged classes which have the easiest time in this specific dungeon. the problem doesnt really stem from having 3 melee dps the problem mainly occurs when you have 1 to 2 melee ranged ranged dps and a melee dps, melee ranged ranged dps dont stand as close as a melee but they stand basically right behind them and it does cause an issue, either losses in dps as you have to premptively stop dpsing to get away while they stand there not caring or giving a dam or you die.
