Suggestion to block for upcoming changes

How about a change to block? Lets say when you block you only block the damage in front of you like 160° or something.
So if you move behind a blocking target he has to turn or get normal unblocked dmg?
Would that help?

Guys that is not helping. I could say come to the duel spots or go to cyro and fight against a perma blocking dk.
Or heavy armor templar or in the near future perma blocking sorcs with pets?
I get that PvE needs blocking and you should be able to block. But if you would have to block into the direction where the damage is coming from you had to focus in PvE and PvP.

Psychodellix✭✭✭The axes can almost 1 hit the non tanks in the area. The tank is holding 6 of them, in order for success the tank HAS to hold all of them. If one gets behind him in your theory he is toast. Then the whole group is toast. Lots of tanks still seem to have a problem tanking these axes. So to have a 160 degree blockable radius would mean wipe....0 -

✭✭There is this thing called unit collision . It means targets (in this case) can stand at the exact same location . This doesn't happen if targets are being hold (aggroed) by the same person . So , these axes I am talking about will push each other and 6 of them will be pushing each other , creating a circle around you . So , as a tank who is holding axes , if you lose your ability to block attacks coming from behind ; as @Psychodellix said , you are toast . Hope I could explain it correctly . English is not my first language ^^0 -

✭✭✭No no no, that would require skill and ZOS never makes any gameplay changes that increase the skill cap.
Seriously... would like to see that but ZOS changes the game to a point where brainafk blocking is not only super effective but also the only counter to certain very strong abilities. And with the frost staff changes it's clear into which direction ZOS wants to go.I used to think that PvP was a tragedy, but now I realize, it's a comedy.1 -
