Q:

I just don’t feel like taunt is a good idea for PvP.

The amout of control effects was already high enough in my opinion. Fighting a ranger with a 15 second cooldown on taunt is not a great experience and I would not like to see more of this in HoT.

What do you guys think?

A taunt in GW2 is a slow pull. It’s not like the bad taunts in other games.

Whenever pull would be too fast, taunt works better instead.

Need? no. All it is is a variation on the current control effects.

Do we need all the control effects we currently have? probably not. Would we miss their removal? Probably.

Will we miss taunt if its removed a year after release? probably.

Personally don’t give a squat about issues with PvP but I would love a reliable way to grab aggro in PvE.

But in MMOs with taunt in PvP, it simply forces targeting and in this game I can’t image that for more than one or two attacks.

We are heroes. This is what we do!

Thanks for sharing your opinions. It would be great to hear the opinion of some other sPvPers on this.
