Taunt works a little bit due to the fact that it actually takes more than +1 threat to take aggro from someone the usual way. You need something like (tank's threat +1)x1.2 before the mob will turn on you while a succesful taunt forces the mob on you even though it only puts you 1 point above whoever had aggro. This means you can hit the mob a few times after the warrior taunts it away before it'll turn back on you, and if the warrior is pretty high level and the other guy is low, it should be possible to keep the mob on the warrior maybe half the time, and then he can finish it off when it gets below 50%. It's not a great way to PL, but it'll work and it's better than nothing. Honestly though, you're better off making an alt to level with him instead. Just make the best babysitter class for whatever he's playing. If he's playing just about any melee class, make a shaman. If he's playing a caster class, maybe make an enchanter, you get Breeze at level 16 now so that'll help a lot.
