Game Mechanics: Taunt Skill

[Shin Noir]

Scumbag, what level are you?
His conditions and formulas essentially say this: As you gain dual wield, double attack, and have a higher base level, your taunt skill will increase not just by the skill number, but by raw power too.
As a newbie, it will be unreliable, because the formula makes it better as you level. When lower levels your best bet is to kill blues and even con for more reliable taunt, but even then it isn't the most stellar. Once you get higher, it will be better.

In my memories Warrior taunt always sucked until they got proc weapons in olden days. SK and Pally had superior aggro (spell generated taunt) for the longest time, we just couldn't tank as well so it was a trade off, especially lack of disc defensive.
