Add a taunt to one of the destruction staff skill morphs (when using a frost staff)?

Would that work? Seems like it would be more effective than a long animation heavy attack and address concerns with the taunt on the heavy attack. Maybe add it to clench with a frost staff (with the shorter range)... Was just a thought

This might be the best idea I've heard for trying to fix frost staves

idk

All tanks already have an instant cast ranged taunt available with the undaunted skill line. If it is good enough for S&B tanking then it is good enough for any other tank build. Much simpler solution since it is already available.

In other words, if a player is doing full staf tanking and not using that skill they are doing it wrong.

The tank stuff should be on elemental susceptibility and maybe frost clench. As it is right now, tri focus is a massive issue and frost ancient knowledge doesn't buff damage when it really should.

Inner fire and frost staff heavy attack, they can just do the simple thing, taunt

No armor debuff

Elemental Susceptibility in it's current form doesn't make much sense since it costs nothing to cast.

It would fit the bill by taunting and providing a debuff.

I literally posted this exact idea in a separate thread

Just throwing in my support for Elemental Susceptibility as the destro staff taunt.

I would prefer if they remove tanking from ice destruction staff completely and add alteration line to the game.

Except tanks will use ele drain from time to time in specific instances. (Off tank vas hard mode, downstairs vcr, etc) There wouldn't really be a point to have that morph for a taunt when inner fire exists.

Adding a 15 taunt fracture and breach to ES would be a great start. Add a cost. I don't know why people want to duel staff tank but that is the least invasive way to achieve that.

Inner rage brings a synergy, es would provide the over time taunt.

Major breach is super prevalent with a few classes or a healer usually providing it. Even in the off chance you are 3DPS + tank without a magden or magro you'd want to slot Inner Fire and Ele Drain for the mag steal anyway.

Major fracture is quite prevalent too with 2 stams, 1 mag, and either morph of puncture. Plus with stams around the Inner Fire synergy spam is great for Lokk.

Since they reduced Inner Fire's cost, I can't see slotting any of the options mentioned unless it did something better than 1 unique synergy every cast.
