Currently the most annoying thing aside from no RDF is the Enemy movement, which is so irritating for all tanks. Charging the mob and he is suddenly behind you. You try to rotate mob, he ends up behind you. But even when mob is in front of you, he is like entering inside your face which is so annoying, I repeat.
This needs urgent fix. I don’t know how to post it on bugs thread, because it is on US website and I have no character over there.
Can’t they just fix the hitbox and tweak the movement? This will be funny in Ulduar, since this behaviour is even worse on big mobs, and Ulduar is full of those. I seriously think of quit tanking. People are yelling, hey, stop moving mobs. While they don’t know what is the problem. At the moment it is impossible to position pack of mobs to be in front of you.
It started in WOD. When they started updating the engine. Been like this since then.
I have fond memories of our tank cursing at Blackhand and his rollerskates movement. As that boss required quite precise movement and he kept walking on top of our tank as you describing.
This is getting worse…
I think I am going back to my good old PS where I actually have fun playing the game. And where those above listen to the community and their needs and demands…
The movement example for how it should be is an obvious private server core and mobs have never moved like that on retail. I agree that the current mob behaviour can be a bit aggressive, they are always trying to move ahead of you and end up behind you a LOT. But looking at some real wotlk footage, you can see mobs sort of do the same thing as what we have right now.

We’re on the shadowlands client since tbc prepatch 18th may 2021, we have ray traced shadows and that was a thing new to SL client. Just a knitpick. 2018 Blizzcon demo = Legion, 2019 Classic beta = BFA, TBC prepatch = SL
Make a trial account on retail NA servers and get a character to level 10, then you will be able to post on NA forums. It sucks
Yeah I know the elemental does a charge that he casts, but that’s not when he runs infront of the tank in the clip. You can see it at 1:27, 1:30 and then again at 1:57 just before he starts the charge cast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBlui5bZnHc
I don’t mind that. My problem is I cant just do simple 180 rotation of the mob, without it ending behind me, or somewhere it shouldn’t be. Can mob be rotated in this game while standing in one place?
