This tip is wrong, you can't dodge a mob that is attacking you from behind.

Quazi is right. You can't dodge or anything when being attacked from behind, only the inherent 5% miss (assuming that's even still around, not sure on that). Only mobs can dodge attacks from behind.

Post count just means you spend too much time reading and not enough playing.

Sadly enough I've had to actually tell tanks this in 5-mans... That and "please don't cast exorcism or heals else while tanking stuff. Please."

Well since we all know that these are all really Rill using different names, here you go... Rill, its time to throw the Prima Guide away that you bought back in 2005.

As a tank I always pull the mobs and then back away fromt eh group so the mobs are all in front of me and have their backs to the group. A mob can not block, dodge or parry any blows from behind either.
