Taunt, How does it work here? EXACTLY

OK I remember on live like... Taunt was Max hate +1.. or something like that.. so.. basically like you would attack hit taunt. and your now on the top of the hate list.. Stupid to keep hitting it unless you lose aggro because say like..

You taunt your now top of hate list lets just say that's 500. So your 501
Now you proc your hate or whatever procs and your dmg your now say 800+
If you were to hit taunt you just trashed your aggro .. now your 501 again.... etc...

I was told that HERE its more of a +hate button... so to speak.. so its more then OK to keep bashing it over and over. On live this was NEVER a good Idea....

Yes my numbers are goofy and everything I know.. but I hope you can at least Grasp my understanding etc.. =P

maybe a gm can clear this up, I tried to search for this but didn't see anything cut and dry

Thanks
 
A successful taunt gives you top aggro on the mob +1, so if you use taunt while you already have aggro, it only gives you +1 aggro, whereas if you use it when someone pulls aggro, you'll jump to the top.

When I play a tanking class I use my taunt a lot at the beginning of the fight, but once I have aggro I only use it to get a mob back. YMMV
 
basicaly just like live, i only asked becasue someone told me there was a wiz post or something saying NO its just like a +hate button here. *shrug* wanted to make sure......

Im a 65 SK not real probloms with agro heh.. but if spamming it is +hate then i would do it.. just goes against everything I was ever told..

So i was making sure.. thanks =))
