<p>Taunts should be added to the final parse in battlegrounds. They are parsable and should be on the list. This would imediatly create more challenging battlegrounds due to tauntlocks. Tanks would see the stat and say to themselves"hmmm, I am supposed to taunt?" Would be nice.</p>

You have to get in a healers head. Tell them if they heal you you will taunt your a$# off. You'd be suprised at how many dps will flock to a tank heal tandum. Now with resists fixed battles will be insane when 2 tanks come together with good heals and dps on both sides. Please taunt sir. I am begging you. I beg for healers to taunt me in bg's.

<p>If I have a reasonable expectation the healer will heal me, I'll taunt as well as intercept most of the damage for my group.</p><p>However, in practice in pugs, that isn't a frequent occurance.  </p><p>With resist changes, I'm looking forward to my premade groups.  20k resists + 11k mit + 30k hp with a healer behind me should now be 'interesting'.</p>
