    This might be a little far-fetched, but am I the only person that sees how this as a perfect example of why the roller-coaster holy-trinity tank-and-spank-everything model eventually fails?

    You can't put in events that require communication and coordination when (almost) everything else in the game caters to facerolling. Maybe if there were more situations where people have to pay attention and be creative, such as events like this one or the presence of support classes, the playerbase overall could benefit from some actual critical thinking/situational awareness and eventually whine less.

    I know, it's probably too late to change the overall model now, but hey I got my chance to say it.

    yeah a bit sad that fun boss like this arent the norm , we need more steps of faith no less!!! , fun bosses > faceroll bosses , however i agree that using cannons + boss adds and no wait to reset the fight ugh , cool idea but the implementation was a bit off
