Because you can't dodge/parry/block while casting.

Figured that was it, thank you. I use Exor liberally during pulls, never while engaged.

That is good to know about exorcism though. I have been thinking about breaking my pally out and leveling him in LFD.

For a time Exorcism was insta cast and when they changed it back to a timed cast I had trouble not using it. However I'll use it now on occasion when pulling. Or as an OT when I need to stay at ranged due to a debuff or something. If it's a sinlge mob that agro'd me while fishing quite often I'll stun and exor exor judge yada yada. It's quicker ot kill them that way than reequip my shield n hammer.

A mob can not block, dodge or parry any blows from behind either.
Actually a mob can dodge an attack from behind.

And once again, Quazi is right. If mobs couldn't even dodge, there would be no need for expertise.

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

That wouldn't be a bad thing if expertise went away.

Is this a new thing? Didn't used to be that way, in fact I seem to recall on those little log in tips is mentions as much, that a mob can't dodge an attack from behind...but maybe that's something out of the 2005 book again...
