Rework player Magnaguard like Tank Takedown

In the hands of a player, raid Magnaguard would have incredibly impactful choices to make.
Do you attack an exposed enemy for bonus damage? Or do you leave them alone so your Magnaguard taunts them? Do you even avoid using your B2's AoE to maximize the amount of taunts you get?
The current player Magnaguard's passive ability (Relentless Assault) could move to a different underpowered tank in need of a soft taunt, like Jedi Knight Guardian. Call it Force Focus - the ability fits flavor-wise.
Reworked Magnaguard could also benefit from synergy with General Grievous. Tactical Maneuvering could guarantee targeting Magnaguard. Magnaguard's Relentless Vanguard could also gain taunt against any enemy starting their turn with a debuff inflicted by Magnaguard or General Grievous.

    I think some tweaks to the player versions of both are in order. Grievous, rare; Magnaguard, neglected. If they tweaked them both to raid-style performance, it would be a nice synergy and a nice thank you to the hard-earned Grievous owners alike.
  • MagnaGuard definitely needs a rework, but I'd prefer to see something with separatist synergy. Maybe a taunt that only works when a separatist is critically hit. Or better yet, have it only trigger when Dooku, Ventress, or Grievous is hit.
