Yeah, this was another thing i didnt like - now the 'taunts' are no longer linked to your avatar but to the leader you're using.
So, i have to live up with the stupid crap most leaders say, instead of the great lines i had with Ciri, and other non-leader avatars (now i use Doggo avatar from TB, its just too cute, and i wish he had taunts, kinda like the phoenix avatar from that event last year)
