What is the success rate of taunt these days? I stopped using it on raids cause it simply doesn't work more than maybe 2 times out of 10. if I need to taunt something I always go straight for AA taunt now.
 
It is my understanding that when the warrior is not at the top of the agro list, taunt will do something like 100 or 200 hate points, and when the warrior actually does have agro using taunt generates significantly less hate. I dont know the exact numbers. But to answer your question, I think it always works in that it generates a certain amount of hate, but it is not always enough to regain agro. So basically it "works" when the warrior taunts a mob and it switches from its previous target to the warrior, and doesnt work when the warrior does not gain agro. And if you are asking to know whether or not it works when you already have agro, I think it always does work, but its not really a means of sustaining agro as much as regaining it. Maybe I am wrong, but if Im correct a message would be useless.
 
Unless things have changed, taunt is top of the list +1 (when successful.) Mash taunters stop now please :p.
 
Ah ok. Even then, youll know when it works and when it doesnt without a message, correct?

More or less. If whoever used to be at the top of list generates just a tiny bit of aggro the second after you successfully taunt, well, you'll lose the mob's attention right away.
 
How to tell if your taunt works:

Since you should only use taunt if the mob is attacking something else, if the mob starts attacking you after you hit taunt, your taunt is sucessful!
 
yeah honestly if a mob was just sitting there slackjawed infront of you, why would you expect some kind of message to tell if your taunt works?

my consern is when taunting befor breaking mezz

And that is exactly why we won't add it.

Taunt it twice and 90% of the time you will hav eno issue. Also you enchanter should be standing when you break it. With the new mana regen changes all your casters should be standing anytime you are in combat anyways.
