Dunkelschattenkavernen II, Tentakelboss

Hasenpfote

In this specific dungeon, the tentacle boss with the lightning damage and these mini lightning adds is not able to be taunted while using range taunt with Unerschrockene taunt skill or Zerstörungsstab taunt skill. If you use Einhand und Schild, you are normaly able to to taunt this boss.

I think the reason is that they aren't that much of a nuisance in terms of outgoing damage, they don't really need to be taunted as some other adds in certain content need to be taunted to avoid killing group members.

I think this is one of the bosses you should keep under control to keep the AOE from the boss controlled at tanks location. The Boss teleports to the current tanks rear location, starts its AOE, teleports to the rear of the tank location, starts its AOE and repeat. On normal, the AOE does 8k damage, i can expect in vet, the boss does 24k+ damage, but i cant tell for sure.

In random groups, DD are usually running with ~15-17k life because ... they can.

I see, but your post was about not being able to taunt the small adds of this boss with other means than Puncture from One Hand and Shield, and while I can understand the frustration about them designing adds that can not be range taunted, I think the reason for that is that these specific adds don't deal enough damage on players to actually warrant being taunted in the first place. They also seem to be programmed to automatically be drawn towards the boss location when they spawn.

You can't taunt it with range taunts because that boss reflects all projectiles while it is flying. You can use range taunts when it's down and melee direct attacks are not reflected, just heavily reduced damage, so thats why S&B stab taunt works.
