Rogue backstab angle of attack

    I used to play a rogue on Mangler but haven't played one for a few years and started a new one on Teek. The first thing I noticed is that if I'm just a little off of directly behind the mob, I get that annoying "You must be behind your opponent to backstab!" message. Screaming "I f%#(@!g am behind him!" didn't seem to work so I thought I'd come here and ask around. Is this a recent nerf to rogue backstab? Does it get better as we level up? On some raid fights you're lucky to get in a position just past being in front of the mob to be able to backstab. Are we just screwed on these fights?

    Is this a known issue they're going to fix? I hope so. I love playing a rogue and was getting really frustrated every time my bs got messed up lol.
