    Default Intercept Theoretical Question

    Can you intercept another tank in your raid and if he Force Taunts a mob do you get that Force Taunt aggro during those 6 seconds?

    How about if He AE taunts with a force taunt like Concussion?

    How about if he uses a Call, which I understand is NOT a force taunt but rather a significant amount to threat generation?

    Force taunts won't be intercepted because they do not add a set amount of agro, they cause the player that uses the force taunt to have their threat # adjusted to match the current highest threat on the agro table at the time of the taunt.

    AoE force taunts work the same way, the taunter is just getting themselves to the top of all of the targets in the AoE.

    Calls add a specific amount of threat (based on endurance). Intercept will steal this threat and add it to your threat total.

    If you use Intercept without a target, it will default to intercepting the highest threat target on the agro table (not always the tank, or yourself if you're tanking... since players have to have 30% more threat to actually steal agro).

    Intercepting another tank can be fun, and confusing for the other tank... I recommend intercepting a DoL-spamming cleric tank when adds pop, they don't understand what's going on at first.

    I haven't tested those exact scenarios, but yes. That is the way it works.
