On normal mobs Taunt carries the same resist penalties as a spell, which means there is always a 1% chance to be resisted. It is obvious that Brutallius has been modified as tanks would be looking at 17% resist rate with no +hit, making the encounter somewhere between a dice roll and russian roulette. It is interesting that Demo and TC got added to the modification as well, as various levels of +hit have never affected their chance to be resisted.

There's not some hidden "but he tries really hard" variable built into the game. -Slake

I always love the "it doesn't fit my style of play" line. There are only two styles of play; Correct, and Incorrect. The only people that ever use this line are people with the incorrect style of play. -Sebudai
