I was thinking the other day how interesting it would be if taunt actually worked in PvP.
For instance, let us say that a person was pounding the crap out of your Doctor or Combat Medic. Wouldnt it be interesting if taunt would cause that person, who was attacking your healer or other person within your group, to switch targets and attack you instead?
So, just out of curiosity I was wondering what you guys thought about that?

Interesting, but likely too easily exploited. And the screams for nerfs would abound here in the forums. Probably not worth the backlash..

Get two guys with taunt, and you can make someone never be able to attack effectively.

That is the whole point of taunt. Keep the damage on the tanks, and if you think about it if your in PvP .. more then likely someone will be taunting you as well. It will just cause people to pay attention to what they are doing in PvP and help keep an entire group from targetting one single player because the tanks are DOING THERE JOB. TKM is tank, not damage dealer.

Still, think about the exploiting. As a previous poster said, two or three TKA's taunting some guy and he's never able to attack. Far too imbalancing without strict rules or something.
