Maga Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 *** TAUNT *** I can't tell you how many times I have seen tanks just start wacking away. at a mezzed mob. Guess what when you give it that rude awakening it then goes into seek and destroy the chanter mode. I have seen SK's wake them up with a cast too. Please taunt mezzed mobs before you start the punishment. Some tanks taunt once then break, others taunt 3 times then break. There was some possible weird bug going on where if they taunted twice then broke the mob still went after the chanter. i am not sure if it was a bug or if it was just because of the tank's skills. So remember *Taunt* (pause for reset) if not sure *Taunt* (pause for reset) *Taunt* some more & some more until you have it's attention. Remember the button takes some time to reset so clicking on it 3 times in a row will do Nothing! Wait for the reset. It's only a few seconds, (I hope) Then Maga (Hunters Moon) There will always be a Hunter, and there will always be the Hunted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebma Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 Too true maga I have seen this happen far too many times as well and have died several because of it, but I would like to offer a tip to your friendly neighborhood enchanter as well. Often times if we are fighting a mob with a whole lotta HP's *such as moktor in umbral plains* I'll hafta remezz a mob 2 or 3 times before my group is done with the previous mob. This just multiplies aggro by about 1000. No amount of tank taunt is gonna help you now. So in these instances it comes in very handy to keep a form of the memory blur spell up and handy. When the group gets the previous mob down to about 5%, blur the one that's mezzed, and Voila! You got a mob thats ready to be slapped around and won't come after your chanter.

Rumblebore Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 Toofless and I had a system down - at about 20% health of the mob we were whacking, I would break off (if enough DPS wawould still be on the whacked mob) and head over to the Mezzed mob and start taunting it - I always kept taunting to 5 taunts even if Toofless came over in the middle of taunting - As MT, He would then break mezz. The thought was that the mob would then aggro ME and not the chanter. I can say that 9 of 10 times, toofless' breaking of mez after that netted him the aggro, and the other 1 in 10 was about 90% a few swats at me. I recall only once where the mob actually moved after someone else, and I think that was the slower/shammy who had already slowed the mob. So, this tactic of TAUNTING a mezzed mob is vital to maintain control and to keep the mezzer alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthania Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 Aye it sure was and it works lovely... I also know playing a warrior that when the fight is over and I go over to taunt the mob ( I live with a chanter I Know to taunt first) Mezz would break or wear off before I ever got to the third taunt.. This does happen I thinkthe Best way to clear it is to mem blur the mob it seems the best way and makes the most sense.. Rumble way though works Perfectly I have only seen it not work once or twice like he said.. Just keep up the good work because it helps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
