Provocation

Using the Provocation skill, a player has a chance to make two creatures fight each other. It is one of the most powerful skills in the game. Beware that if you fail the monsters will look for a new target, you. Provocation is difficulty-based skill. Some monsters are much more difficult to provoke than others, depending on their Barding Difficulty. Once two creatures are fighting each other, they will continue to do so until either the provoking bard leaves their line of sight or one is killed.

Training:

I have and always will use the boat method for training provoke. Line up your boats so they are all next to each other lengthwise. So now you can open the plank for all 3 and walk across. Get on the middle boat and move it back about 3-4 tiles. Stand on the middle and put your targets on separate ships.
