Simple question: in PvP, how can I keep an enemy targetting myself rather the squishies with me?  Do I need to keep taunting - is there a "Threat Threshold" where it forces the enemy to target me?What about scouts and evade?I'm building my toon to be the PvP sponge - who takes all the damage while everyone else does their damage thing...Thanks in Advance,-Fred<div></div>

When you taunt it makes a resist check, if the resist check fails they're forced to target you and hold on you for a couple seconds. Hold the Line can also proc when they attack you, it's the same 50% chance except it forces them to hold on you and target you. Encounter taunts work the same way on groups of PvPers.Scout evades just force you to drop them as a target if you have them targeted.<div></div>

The above poster is tottaly right -- your healers better be ready to heal you.. sometimes youll hit the ground quick after hitting the group taunt and helping them focus on you <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />I'd suggest just single taunting the other tanks/bruisers/scouts and not touching the group taunt unless you are grouped with 2 healers.or group taunting statics casters/healers is very good too.. =)<div></div>
