Throw warriors a bone.

Of course with the addition of AA's over the many years I really did forget just how hard a warrior has it until I came back to this server.

I re made my warrior a Wood elf, then deleted him and went Gnome. Spamming taunt will never ensure you have agro, in my experience it will only reset any decent amount of agro you have just built up. Mind you this one has always been debated over the many years.

There are many many more I have no doubt...

Peace.

Successful taunt when you are not on top of the NPC hate list = moves you one point higher in hate above whoever was at the top of the list.

Successful taunt when you are already at the top of the hate list = only give you +1 point of hate.

That's my recollection anyways.

Instead of the OP complaining that warriors work here the same way they did on EQLive 12 years ago, perhaps he should play a different game or try a different tank class in exchange for the outrageous xp penalty those tank classes incur.
