| Or you have to put in stuff that gives the players the ability to react to what is gonna happen IF they pay attention.
Say you have mr. Bigbadassgiantboss thats can do a random whirlwind attack that hits everyone around him for a_sick_amount_of_damage with knockback, why not let him do some emote 5 seconds before so that people know it and can react to it.
This makes the fight imo. more fun and challenging instead of the at X% the mob does this, at Y% that yadayadayada same BS we have had since EQ.
Or maybe you could even have the mob do some graphical thing before, like the giant from before holds his big bad ass axe high above his head just before he does mortal strike or something. |
