I taunt and taunt... - by Tonamel

But no one will attack me! Even after they say things like "Shut up and draw" or "You won't be so smart after I'm through with you" and the like. Why? I just want a little mayhem, can't they give me that?

You've got to be successful at 0% more than once to have them attack you, usually like 3-4 successes

Yeah you need to be successful a couple of times. Nothing is more boring then having to go through the taunt menu 60 times to get someone to fight you. Only to get your butt kicked and then have to reload.

Ah, thanks. But I still think that when they say they're going to kill me, they should just get it over with! :)

Lol. I have this problem all the time because my speechcraft and personality are pretty low (dark elves, apparently, have low personality ... which is odd, given that Morrowind is 50% d. elven).
So I get impatient, and pick their pockets until they get annoyed and attack me, then pay the fine... Be careful if you have stolen goods, though... they WILL be confiscated if you pay your fine, and that can be a bitch because the game doesn't recognize certain items as bought... for example, if you stole the Balmora mage guild soul gems, guards will think EVERY soul gem on you is stolen.. I lost some good stuff that way :(

That's why I just dump everything on the ground before paying the fine. If it't not on my person, I didn't steal it! :D
Of course, I prefer to just have the Thieves Guild take care of my bounties...

Yep.. i usually stand there with my weapon drawn-taunting away..until they say 'thats it goodbye' and actually attack..
The best bit is - if u have to bribe them a few times to get the taunts to work..when u kill em u get all your money back..
Came in very handy that did..in the council club!

Delete this to while you're at it, Kathode.

Oh, I suppose I'll add stuff =\
Taunt is based upon speechcraft, which pretty much means those taunts at level 1 speechcraft are like, "Well, you suck! well, not really, I mean, hmm, stink perhaps? yes, stink! Ah hah!", whereas the taunts at level 100 are... "You're father smells of Elderberries!" etc. =)
Which means that taunting at low levels is... futile at best... very few instances in the game require you to taunt people.

i have 80 personality and a high speachcraft skill (dont reemmber the exact number) and taunting someone to attack still takes forever. I really think its lame the way they did it with skills that high one good taunt should do it not like 4. Admire works a lot though =P
