Because there is not crit% for taunts? They are not spell casts and not melee...

I thought they were spells. They proc PoTM.

Anyway, if you want to test it, if you can find a taunt that has a set taunt amount and not a range you can test it against a spell with a set amount thats higher then the taunt and see if you ever can reclaim aggro with one taunt (thus proving a crit taunt). If that makes sense.

Tested wearing 3 pieces of warrior gear giving a damage proc on taunts and added a mythical coercer buff, both procs either crit or don't crit at all. Don't know for sure for the taunt, but the damage part is added to the spell text and either eveything procs or not. Maybe taunts car crit as spells, they do proc everything which says "hostile spell".

Do not taunt happy fun ball.

If I recall, my taunts (guard) were not affected by INT or +spell mods (not online to verify) however they do proc as "hostile spells."

In the end 95% of my hate is from DPS anyways, so never bothered to look deeply into taunt mechanics.

Unless you are an SK, our taunts don't work.

I'm only half joking... in a raid, equal geared and equal quality players of crusaders, if an SK uses the encounter taunt which has a debuff in it, she will not pull agro unless the MT is ass. If a pally hits his equal taunt/debuff, he will likely pull agro.
