1.10 Leap Attack Barbarian

[Occhidiangela]

While messing about this morning with Taunt, it looked to work this way:

...................Barb1...("Your mother was a hamster!")
.........Barb2..................("You silly knees bent running about Abyss Knigggets!!")
-----------------|..|-------------------------------------------
......MonsA.........MonsB.............MonsC

Barb 1 can Taunt MonsB and sometimes MonsA, depending on slight angle adjustments. Pure line of sight not required, but something very close to Line of Sight seems a prerequisite.

Caveat: with soft walls, the kind that atatcks get through, sometimes Taunt seems to go through that wall as well.

EDIT: Addition. The "Open Roofed" buildings in Lower Kurast, etc, allow you to taunt over or through the wall, unlike underground walls in underground settings, but of course the monsters run around trying to find you, poor things! :)

Barb2 can successfully Taunt MonsB but not MonsA.

Neither Barb can Taunt MonsC.
