      Fan knives one piece of thorns armor and one piece of duelist armor mixed with this should keep you at the top of the aggro table all the time.

        You need to take the “only works in coop” off here. It clearly works and is designed to work with you or your mimic taking the agro. It’s easily testable to confirm yourself. The whole point of this is to put in on your clone, or yourself, to draw agro.

          So fitting that the talisman is modeled after the most punchable face in the universe and universes beyond.

          Btw, does this work on bosses? Can I equip this and 2H a great shield and just harass the boss so the host can get free hits?

            When I first found this, I thought it would make every enemy in my vicinity go "Alright, f*ck this *****" and come at me, sort of like an opposite version of the darkness spell but a constant wide AOE, which could have been a fun challenge... But unfortunately it's entirely useless if you don't use summons.

                Tried this on a boss when helping a player and it didn't work well.

                Also, I wish this talisman would make invaders only be able to target lock you if you're in vicinity of other players or the host. It would make things interesting.

                  how to tank:
                  - blasphemous blade (OP), or a weapon with the Blood Tax skill (higher AR or status the better)
                  - 51 or 101 poise
                  - CRIMSONBURST CRYSTAL TEAR
                  - OPALINE HARDTEAR
                  - BESTIAL VITALITY
                  - GOLDEN VOW (SPELL)
                  - boiled crab
                  - USE THROWNABLES
                  - dragoncrest greatshield
                  - ritual shield
                  - swaddling cloth if using blood tax, or whatever you want if using blasphemous
                  - shabriri's woe if you don't have duelist's helm, or whatever you want (rotten wing insignia if you use Blood Tax)

                  you should be able to keep ritual shield talisman up pretty regularly with this if you don't suck. You'll be taking very very little physical damage. you need to consider what type of damage the boss you're fighting deals though, and remember that your buffs have a limited duration.

                    (Reposted from a post on Duelist Helm)
                    Perhaps confirmation bias, but I think this does increase the amount of aggro you "produce." Testing with throwable daggers got Margits' attention in 2-3 daggers instead of 4-5.

                    Tips and tricks for anyone more than likely going for a tank aggro build:
                    -Throwables are a must, this will be your main means of grabbing aggro as many enemies bounce and twerk as fast as possible, not only are they easy to procure they also don't cost much.
                    -Don't bother with iron skin perfume, reduces any and all mobility for a buff you can acquire from Dragoncrest Shields and Pearldrake Talismans as well as armor and shields (use uplifting).
                    -Your main assistance will be applying buffs, tanking aggro, and applying debuffs- damage is not your main concern.
                    -Know your enemies and know what shields to use- as well as when/what will drain your stamina too fast to tank(dragons breath is annoying as ****).
                    -Shields can also be two-handed if you don't have appropriate strength or strong weapons (unlikely but it's there).
                    -USE THROWABLES
                    -Circling around an enemy and throwing **** at them is important to pull combos, try to wait until after allies attack as this really ****s with their aggro and resets it to them usually.
                    -USE THROWABLES

                    Armor:
                    -Duelist/Rotten Duelist helm, it's a pain to get but until actually proof comes out I'm going to say it stacks with Shabiri).
                    -Poise thresholds and resistances are king, I think Commander O'Neils is the meta best poise to weight ratio tho.
                    -You can equip Deathbed Dress as well to provide a healing Aura, but I don't know the range/heal/if it's worth it.

                    Weapons:
                    -Lances are probably the best weapons for this build, Lances can get B STR scaling base from Heavy application right out the gate. Their poise damage is incredibly strong as well and if you're fighting an enemy that blocking isn't feasible- dual wield the ****ers.
                    -Commanders Standard- applies an AOE buff og like, 25% damage increase, need I say more?
                    -You can also get a Golden Vow offhand (i like misericorde for criticals) if you can't get it though.
                    -Antspur(with poison) can also turtle poke applies the ever present crimson rot/poison.
                    -Pulley Crossbow is good for a bonus offhand that applies debuffs even better and you can help with bleed and rot feasibly too.

                    Shields:
                    -Brass Shield of course, amazing guard boost and early 100% phys. reduction; you can tank the guardian outside the start elevator with this badboy. Magnifique.
                    -Gilded Greatshield and Jellyfish are early 100% phys. block shields as well.
                    -I'm not too sure about Icon shield but you could offset with blessed dew talisman and its passive regen?
                    -Fingerprint Shield- your endgame goal

                    Spells:
                    -Not very worth it imo, you can really only apply one which Commanders Standard or Golden Vow offhand do, for far cheaper stat-wise and don't require the high faith requirements normally required.
                    -Heals; again you could possibly use deathbed dress. Healing in a fight is unfeasible due to poise- hard to locate and sit by an ally, slow, and if you have the time to do this, just use a warming stone- or hell, Holy Ground ash of war which increases defense AND is easier to manage and get into.

                    Talismans:
                    -Shabiris Woe (again until proven otherwise I'm going to state this works in tandem with Duelist helm).
                    -Greatshield Talisman
                    -Dragoncrest Shield Talismans, I use this on every character I love it. I guess you could swap it out for Pearldrake but that's on you.
                    -Empty Slot- I use Jarsenal and later switch out for whatever, some good choices: Stamina Regen Talisman, Ritual Shield, Bull-Goat, maybe Blessed Dew.

                    Ashes of War:
                    - Barricade shield isn't amazing from what I've heard but it's acceptable
                    -Bloodhound step is my other goto for again, dodging things you can't block.

                      does this stack multiplicatively with rotten duelist set/hood? to provide a greater 'taunt' effect? or is it just one or the other? as in, this would free equipment slots if equipped? asking for my dedicated tank build. Thanks in advance.

                              I'm a bit confused by the notes on this page. One says this only works in co-op, while the other says you can put this on a Mimic Tear to take aggro for you. Unless I'm missing something, both of those statements can't be true.

                                  Even Shabriri's Woe can't help you carry someone with 500 health who panic rolls the moment the boss loses aggro from you for one second.

                                    Love using this while helping players against bosses like malenia and godfrey, I don’t have to worry about the hosts taking absurd damage as long as I throw a dagger after they attack and the bosses instantly zero in on me!

                                        This talisman + Fingerprint Shield + Greatshield Talisman + Spear = bosses will bash their heads against a wall while cooperators will unleash hell on them. I know it's cheesy (not THAT much, you still have to watch out for chip damage, stamina and unblockable grabs) but this game can be as cheesy so no shame in it. Also it's pretty fun to watch, makes me giggle a bit.

                                                    Bosses will usually focus the last person to get a hit on them on their next action. This talisman seems to make you the priority target but also make you keep aggro for the next action. You're not going to magically keep aggro, you still need to hit the boss within a period of time, but it does offer a less aggressive playstyle for you while summons or cooperators do damage uninterrupted.

                                                    So to keep it simple: Priority + ''Lingering aggro''

                                                      This item alone is not enough to keep boss aggro. It seems that it only affects the likelyhood that the boss will target you if given an equal choice on targets in the area. The best way to keep boss aggro it seems is continuous damage.

                                                      In my testing, it seems like it doesn't matter how much damage you do, but how often you are scoring hits, so throwing knives in conjunction with this item might be the best way to pull aggro off of your friends.

This tactic absolutely trivializes every boss in the game wherein one can summon the mimic. So long as I'm not closer to the enemy than my mimic, the enemy has always gone after it and keeps me free to nuke away. Not great if you want to learn what can/ can't be blocked, when to roll, etc. However, one could easily argue you can still learn patterns by watching it engage your summons.

It doesn't cause enemies to directly attack you if they are attacking other players. This does NOT mean the item is useless for stealing aggro in co-op though. Bosses tend to target the last person who directly hit them recently. If a player backs away from a boss and the boss isn't currently attacking someone and is just walking towards that player the talisman can make the boss retarget you after a (random?) amount of time. This can allow teammates a disengage period in order to heal or rebuff, but overall the item isn't amazing and the ideal option for tanking is to just stick to the boss and hit it as much as possible. Overall the talisman is better for fighting multiple enemies so more of them target you before your buddies start hitting them. All of this is just speculation from what I have seen in game though.

                                                                              • Anonymous
