Taunt

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Taunt is a recurring skill in the Megami Tensei franchise.

Profile

Taunt is a Support skill that increases the attack and lowers the defense of all enemies.

In Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne Maniax, Dante and Raidou Kuzunoha XIV have a variant of Taunt localized as Provoke, which also restores the user's MP.

In Shin Megami Tensei V and the Devil Survivor series, Taunt instead increases the chance of the user being targeted by single-target attacks. In the latter, it additionally reduces damage taken by the user.

In Persona 5, Taunt is instead an Ailment skill that inflicts Rage.
