So I summon this minion for 3 or 4 pips and all he does is "taunt" the monsters. What is up with that? Was he trying to get the other monsters to attack him?
Taunting grabs mobs kind of like how doing damage does, except without the damage. If you're a storm wizard, that means you're fragile. If mobs attack your minion instead of you, that means you don't die. That's a good thing, even if a lot of storm wizards seem to disagree.
