There is no official source for the definition of the word "punchvoke"

 

Whatever.

 

And, yes, based on how you were using the term, I did say it wasn't Gauntlet.

 

The wiki is about as official as we get. It says that it is a term used to refer to gauntlet.

The wiki is more official than you are.

 

I'm done with this conversation.

 

If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore.

(It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications)

Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case.

But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable.

Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them.

FWIW, whenever I was combing through patch notes a few topics ago I did come across this:

 

Quote

Brute PunchVoke is now also applied via a global proc.

 

I always considered Punchvoke to be the name of a mechanic (whenever a taunt effect triggers on activating attacks) rather than tied to a specific AT's inherent. So IMO Tankers and Brutes and Kheldian Dwarfs all get it. I know the Wiki claims Brute's is called "Pokevoke" but I haven't heard anyone actually use that term seriously since circa issue 7.

The wiki is completely unofficial. From the home page of the wiki:

 

Quote

Welcome to the Unofficial Homecoming Wiki

 

Unless it cites an official source anything on there is no more official than me, you, or anyone else.

 

However, from the official Homecoming Issue 26 page 4 patch notes:

 

Quote

Brute PunchVoke is now also applied via a global proc.

  • Any power that either inflicts damage or takes accuracy enhancements will trigger PunchVoke.

 

So at the very least the Homecoming devs, which is about as official as we get, refer to attacks that taunt as "PunchVoke."

 

But again, this is pedantic and irrelevant to your ultimate point that Dwarfs shouldn't have Taunt or additional threat added to their attacks, to which I responded they already do.
