Hate reset and you, why the devs are lazy

If Square want TP moves to be a difficulty factor they need to remove them from the logs, people use bots to stun these moves now very widely so any difficulty is void.

Have them resist stun. Force the party to eat the TP move, and thus need a tank.

Let it have a few seconds to charge, as to let the party run out of range or die, and only have the tank survive.

IDK there's tons of ways around it.

This so much. Could even give it a little count down and if the tank is not geared for it not even great gear just have smart gear. If only SE could make a mob like this. Hi utima what you been up to. >.>

You'd have to tune damage in a way that the group eating said TP move doesn't mean a near wipe, while adjusting healing to be easier to use in the context of alliance damage. I know its a bit on the hyperbole side, but that's the way things have been for several years now. Hence why everyone and their mother was so focused on avoiding damage altogether when possible (hi2u, PLD/NIN).

On topic, there's very little that can be done to the game's encounters due to, as has been said, all the tons of legacy code that have been there since the game launched. Monster behavior has been set to be a certain way, with certain parameters and resources that are there, for better or worse (monsters being reliant on TP as a resource falling into the "worse" category). As such, they can't really add many new mechanics to bosses to simulate difficulty. Not to mention you'd have to tune all 20 jobs to perform in synch with the new mob mechanics.

This. The only reason Khim/Cerb/Tia/Etc became easy fights were because you either started using SMN's low man, or Zerging and eating deaths with SAM's/BLMs and a few SMNs thrown in to use Odin.
