I am wondering if Scourge is working as intended. I just got him and he is in his default gear, I use him in the DPS role but he seems to take way more damage in battles than Kira. I am not sure why, I use guard on him and it doesnt seem to help. I tried placing him in both the Combat and Guard Stance but for some reason he gets roughed up far more. Anyone else experiencing this? Is it a matter of the difficulty ramping up post lvl 40? Maybe its more imperative I get him better gear than his default?

Im fairly certain he taunts on default settings and Kira doesn't, may explain his extra damage. Ive not seen any real difference in the damage they take other than the fact that he's tanking

Yes - you can disable his taunt ability and then activate it only when you need him to taunt. Much handier.

LOL thanks folks, I think I figured it out. It wasnt the single target taunt but he has 2 AoE abilities that draw a high amount of threat. I think this was causing a lot of the problems.
