I personal believe taunt is not broken and is close at the skill the should be, issue is alot players here got used to be spam bomb taunt/warcry to bosses and mob without doing any actual damage.
Taunt is aggro control but in no way should be the only the only aggro attack . It's ridiculous the all warriros here expect a cry to keep aggro from a mob the is getting kill by someone else .
So to all warrior learn to do combos to keep aggro is alot good damage skills the will help your taunt you can't honest believe the you will be a good char with 2 war cries ...... So learn to play balance this is the same for the other classes the are dps maniacs to be more balance.

I was killing a Connacht Shieldmaster Captain with my level 60 ranger... had it about half dead, a level 40+ warrior came up to it, hit it once, not sure if he taunted it or what, but the Captain hit him once or twice. Not sure if level has something to do with the way agro works now :|

Because it is broken when you taunt a boss 4 times and you are full tank and it says you succeeded but te monster doesnt even turn around and bat an eye at you its broken =)

Its the relative level factor that screws it up!

It is not as bad for me but, I am having some energy issues gear wise which I can fix but, for the most part if i shield bash first then taunt its pretty much mine. However say my energy is low shield bash is not up and dps pulls aggro i cant try and taunt a boss off till im blue in the face and it will say it succeeded over and over but just keep killing the same dpser and when he dies then the boss will turn on me. The issue may have to do with boss targeting as I do not have this issue on normal mobs.

Taunt is maxed so is bash warcry is for adds so i dont max it. Its at 7 and can still pull bosses but, both warcry and taunt needs to be fixed. Either have it stop saying they succeeded when obviously they didnt or have it make the boss attack you.

Even without the relative level factor, taunt is still a lot weaker. A friend of mine, who's a ranger my level, was soloing Crumblehorn. He invited me and told me to tank it, so I did. He had taken out 10% of it's health already, but I literally had to taunt it like 20 times for it to shift it's agro to me. I'm pretty sure no more than 5 taunts would have worked before the update. My taunt is like around 25/30. :|

My taunt is 30/30 and it is like that. It is not relative lvl factor. My 7/30 warcry almost works better. It is stupid that dps issues have priority over tanks holding aggro. I may as well not waste 30 points in taunt cause im sure 1/30 is same as 30/30 right now even though there really is no defined value the player can see from his end.

My taunt is 40/35 and i can hardly get aggro off a level 140 rogue wth really im level 176 and i can't tank some things cause it looses interest,? Really ? Something big needs to be done about this cause the days of tanking are done if we can't hold mobs let alone bosses. Please if they really care about the tank warrior they will fix this, the game has not been the same since even after the small boost they gave.
