This is the same problem I have with my fire/fire scrapper. Everything runs away from me three seconds after I start attacking, including monsters. Provoke might help, but I have no intention of changing up my build just to find out. I recall that my ranged attackers didn't have this problem, so I may eventually try with my corruptor once that character hits 50+incarnate.

i remade my ma/fire scrapper to a fire/ma tank for the pure reason of no taunt ability
