that early lvl taunt spell we get, that never seemed to upgrade... that I stopped using around lvl 20 or so and finally took off my hotbar.... should I have  bought adeptIII  for that and try using it again?

The only taunt that i know that doesn't ugrade is rescue, it is level 25 and thats the emergency taunt that all fighters get. And since you only need a t3 rare its worth the upgrade. Don't know which spell else you could mean.

I believe, though I am not positive, that he is refering to the level 1 "Taunt" ability.  When you use your upgraded taunt, not shield bash or decree of decay, but the other one (the name escapes me), though the picture is different - its like a cloud thing instead of a fist, when used, it causes the "Taunt" timer to reset and therefore it is effectively its upgrade.  Let me know if youre still confused and ill log into my SK and be more specific.

I noticed the same thing, I think it’s a remnant from the times where you picked your subclasses as you leveled.  However, Goading Gesture from Splitpaw has the same icon but shares a cool down w/ another taunt.  It is a straight up taunt that scales, at lvl 38 mine causes about 400 threat.

Goading Gesture is on the same timer as your standard SingleTargetTauntOverTime, the only difference being it taunts instantly for a bit less (and from memory has a chance to double).  I couldn't see the point, so deleted it from my hotbar. For Taunts - I think of HarmTouch as an extra Rescue

Would make sense for me, since i startet as a Level 1 Shadowknight directly after they got rid of the subclasses, and so i don't have any old subclass spells SMILEY

I actually think that Goading Gesture is a great.  Even though it shares the same cool down as your hate over time spell it is a lot more effective in getting snap agro.  Sometimes your nuker gets a little over zealous and you need hate and you need it NOW!  It will never leave my toolbar nor will my hate over time, they are both situational.
