I'm playing SR/MA, which seems lacking in AoE taunt (unless i'm not understanding something)

 

I picked up Sorcery->Enflame which creates an AoE DoT around an enemy. 

 

It appears this counts as *my* damage. Does it also cause the gauntlet affect when it hits mobs?

 

I tried to use the combat logs and it *seems* like it does, but I wanted to double check here

 

When it de-toggles on my build, it recharges in 4.4 seconds. So it's not perma but I think it kinda works as an area taunt

 

I just have 1 IO in it "Superior Frozen Blast: Recharge/Chance for Immobilize"

I believe Evasion is the "Taunt Aura" for Super Reflexes. So, if need be you should be able to slot that with Taunt Enhancements. I don't believe Power Pool powers inherent the Gauntlet ability, but I could be wrong. I'm sure someone will come along and correct me. So what you could be seeing is the Taunt from Evasion, and not from Enflame.

Gauntlet is applied by some weird global technology, it's not an attribute of the powers themselves.  So, I believe it will work with pool powers.  It's possible that going through a pseudopet (which Enflame is) might break that, and so it specifically might not work with Enflame?

 

But my confidence in any of these answers is low.  I definitely don't understand how Gauntlet works in any detail.

Huh, very strange, I just checked on two different Tanks and Kick from the Fighting pool does fire Gauntlet as do my choices from the Epics. So, perhaps any attack from a Tank causes the Gauntlet effect to fire. I have some debuffs from the Epics on other Tanks, I'll have to see if those cause Gauntlet to fire as well.
