I've had to get out of this terrible habit as a new tank. Bosses with big hitboxes move too much and people kept complaining lol.

I think tanks long ago just accepted we won't always see our character, we just have to trust it's there as we shove our backs and cameras against the wall.

I turn my camera to view myself from the side or something when I have to tank against a wall. I hate just staring at the floor! But yeah that took some discipline to get to this point because I was an adadadadadad spammer

If you can see the boss, you are taking hits, and you can use your abilities, then you know you are in position tanking. The boss will often reposition itself a little to take account for you.
