Hi, i was just wondering, when fighting Onyxia and other bosses with a tailswipe or other "DO NOT STAND BEHIND" gimmicks does this mean that Shred is useless? Thus we now have to mangle spam? Or does it still let us Shred even from the sides? Or where are we supposed to stand?
My druid isn't high enough to raid yet, it's only 74, but i was doing Ony on my mage lastnight and it made me think.
Thanks.

Tail sweep
is not a problem with Onyxia. The positioning is *a little* tricky, yes, but Shred is perfectly usable. You might think that taking a few steps to the side of the tail (effectively placing yourself behind her heel) will get you out of trouble. Not true. Tail sweep has a pretty wide angle. And standing behind her heel will get you knocked away straight into the whelp eggs most of the times.
The optimal position is actually besides her leg, somewhat a little behind her knee, on the exterior. This allows you to Shred, as her hit box is pretty large and you'll still be 'behind' her. Make sure not to move too much in front or *inside* her body, as you may enter her frontal cone. While still being able to Shred, you'll be prone to
Cleave
in this position.

Tail Swipe's angle is 30degrees. So from her centre it's only 15degrees to each side. There's plenty of space for you to move around without getting hit and shred away at those tender heels!
I'm not sure if feral charge will land you bang on her tail swipe range so be careful with that. Anyone doing this that can confirm?

Yep, don't feral charge to her, you will get tail swiped. I was in my pvp spec (I don't have feral charge in pve spec), and got wtf punted across the room. You can stand anywhere on the side of her and shred as long as you don't face the side, but stand at an angle. I shred her all the time. She has a huge hit box so don't get too close or when fear happens she turns and swipes you to death.

OK, since Mr.
Doomrouge
brought the idea, here is a bit more detailed drawing of the Onyxia positioning (I took the pics from wowhead model viewer and edited them with Paint):

Here you can see it clearly ^_^
