And I was comparing with mitigation, because we do have one mitigation example where tradeoffs exist (Plus, Mitigation is just as crucial a tank thing as taunt). Inner Beast is used in a similar way as Shadowskin/Rampart, as mitigation for a tank-buster, since it's the only %damage reduction WARs have outside of Vengeance (Foresight is very weak and often not even applicable). It also has a much shorter duration that the other spells. And using it means you lose out of a Fell Cleave. But, WARs make up in other ways.

This is very much comparable to having taunt on a Dark Arts'd oGCD, as it presents very similar tradeoffs.

Anywhoo, if you have better ideas how to make a unique but functional taunt for the other tanks, feel free to shoot, because that's what I was originally replying to. Alternately, we could just copy WAR's skillset, paste it to the other two tanks, add provoke and call it a day - all imbalances gone in an instant. If we're just going to copy tools, might as well.
