Realistic hate prioritization
So imagine you are chilling in a dungeon with your homies. You go to take a piss and a martial artist kicks you in the head then runs off. You give chase and follow him into a room with 5 others, at which point he convincingly fakes his own death despite you having barely touched him.
At this point you are under attack and must decide in the heat of the moment who to concentrate your aggression towards: 1. A steel-clad warrior. He seems to be in your face a lot and is hurling surprisingly effective and personal insults. 2. The martial artist, who was indeed faking his death and is now back up and kicking you some more. 3. A rogue. He is repeatedly stabbing you in the back with sharp objects. 4. Xobaner, a floating torso composed of clods of dirt. It is beating on you with it's dirt-fists. You get the impression it would rather be somewhere else. 5. A magician. You are reasonably certain he is controlling Xobaner. He hasn't done anything to you yet per-say, but he seems to be conserving energy for something and you suspect nothing good will come of it. 6. A shadow knight. He used his magic to surround you in a cloud of disease. 7. A priest, sitting far off in a corner, behind all the others. He had the gall to sit down in your presence. Otherwise, he may or may not be paying attention to what is going on in the room. Who do you feel you would actually go after in the heat of the moment? | ||

With how you have worded this story, flat out Martial artist for constantly kicking me. However personalty i'd have the mechanics go off
threat generated through dmg /(divided)/ by Successful taunts/agro gains. That way if damage dealers don't check damage sums they could end up accidentally pulling to much hate from the tanks.

Gotta go with the rogue. Hard to ignore being stabbed in personal places repeatedly.

I spread my goblin/gnoll/kobold claws and beeline for the robed magician. He looks frail enough.
Thanks for the fun read.

That's entertainment! I think that drama queen faking his death, but honestly, I reckon the back stabber will have killed me before I can think too hard on it.

As an NPC, I specifically hate anyone sitting who is not on my hate list. So, get up, I need to add you to my list. No, no, don't sit back down... Get! Up!

You didn't list their race, which I feel is pretty important if I've had previous experiences in dungeons with certain ones. As a Goblin, I may hate certain races and feel that they've ruined their own lands. I may not want them to ruin mine.

The Cleric, if everybody else is doing something , weaving magics or just paying attention, and amongst them is SOMEBODY doing absolutely NOTHING, then that guy is the BOSS of all those underlings.
Everybody else working doing something and just one guy in the back nodding off? THAT ONE IS THE WORST! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] HE IS PROBABLY MIND CONTROLLING THEM!

LOL if this thread is teaching us anything, it's that taunt is useless.
I feel for you warriors. Edit: Also who picked Xobaner lmao. Poor guy just ripped from his elemental plane and bound to the will of some asshole mage. | ||
