Do you think taunt range of 20 meters is to close.

well since you ask : no I don't think it's too close (short)

Thanks thats what I wanted to know.

hmmm one problem I kind of saw but didn't really understand was that it seems to be affected by action penalty - I've seen my taunt drop down to 4 meters in heavy armour with a shield and sword. Thats just silly.

But - in actuality it seems to work over further distances than this, so I'm confused...

I would like to see it increase in range at higher levels tho - particularly cos its quite hard to pull mobs 20-30 lvls above me to a point where its safe to fight them (without risking a load of adds from respawn or just plain aggro). Mainly just cos they do so much damage now - died a few times on the way back from pulling!

when this works it gives us 1-2k xp - just in case someone wants to tell me we should be fighting mobs of our own level! Now and again we'll take on a mob that is 40 lvls above us but that becomes an epic battle and whilst fun is not a good way to get xp by any means!!

IMO the range should increase a bit for each level of taunt you get. Or reduce the AP.

IMHO there must be an EoE version at high lvls

I'd rather see it's duration a tad longer... 1 tank + 1 healer + 2 mobs = playing ping pong

Tried to yell at the mob with your big helmet? "hey ugly clopper, your momma was a lobster!" "clopper... did you hear something guys?" ... or give the finger with a gauntlet; "why's that guy pointing at us?"

more like ping- splat.....then about 10 seconds later.....splat

Hahaha, you made my day

But on the subject of taunt, I have no idea because I don't use it

I thought that the penalty lowering range was removed but i might be mistaken.
20m is a very good range for taunt. It's great for pulling most mobs. Also is good for the tank to pull off the puller at a much further range than before.
