Excessive Taunt Resist?

[DarkLord35]

<DIV>Didn't get into game till pretty late last night but was able to do the Tower instance in Looping Plains.  I experienced numerous resist on AE Taunt (M1), probably somewhere near 25% on blues and a little more on yellow cons.  I do not recall this being a problem in beta and was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same on live now.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Jedod</DIV> <DIV>70th Paladin</DIV> <DIV>The Tyrants - Permafrost</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

This may not be relevant, but I made a paladin last night (starting back playing the game, had been waiting for the expansion to hit) and experienced extreme parry/dodge/resist rates from mobs in just the newbie area.  For the last week I've test-run classes trying to decide what class I wanted to play and never saw but 1-2 taunt resists on the Isle, yet this morning I had 4 taunt resists (was triggering heroics...or trying to) and 6 kick/wild strike parries on the same mob.  This happened repeatedly while fighting this morning to the point where I couldn't even complete an HO before the timer ran out because of the resists.  It wasn't just on taunt though, it was on the newbie nuke as well...seemed like any 'triggered' attack got bounced back/blocked and I never experienced this in 10 characters that I levelled up last week.  May just be a side effect of the combat changes though - I'll be playing more tonight so hopefully it was just a fluke.<div></div>

Did Valdoon and Ob... noticed this and commented on it to my guild group... glad to see it wasnt just me. It seemed worse in Valdoon than in Ob. I am thinking vampires have high divine resist... kinna a catch 22 having to get the taunt to stick to get the divine debuff in <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
