Taunt nerfage?

I was playing my tank and charged into a group of mobs and used Taunt. I noticed I was only hitting about 5-6 of the mobs in a huge group. I looked at the power details and to my surprise it only affects five targets now. I don't recall affecting this few before. Did something change recently? Also I checked my Against All Odds and found that it affects 10 targets. Is this normal as well? I wish I could post/paste a screenshot here but I can't.

I'm afraid your memory is playing tricks on you. Taunt has had a target cap of five since Issue 5. Taunt auras follow the guidelines for other PBAoEs.

Definitely not a recent change. Taunt has affected only 5 targets for years. At least as long as i've known how many targets it can affect, and that's at least three years i think.

Against All Odds has always affected up to ten targets. No change there either.

Edit: What the slug said.

Thanks for the info. I normally don't play a tank because I'm usually on my SD scrapper who usually steals aggro from a tank with AAO.
