If so, there was loot for everyone who contributed, and next week it would be back with more HP, so it became harder to kill with each iteration. If you died while fighting it, your damage didn't count and your try for the day was done.

Granted after 150 iterations it got stale and the thing became pretty much unkillable, but it was a fun activity, pretty much unlike anything I had experienced prior. I'd like something like that, a little fun daily "solo raid" where it actually makes a difference if you die or not, that has players working on something together while still allowing them to do it when it suits their schedule.
That's... not how the fight worked, not at all...

However, that fight in Dragon's Dogma was an awesome design and I would welcome something like this here in the game. But I would prefer it to be multiplayer content, maybe something like Eureka where you have a 100 man instance wich you can enter solo, team up, fight against the boss for a while and then leave. And when the boss finally dies you get rewards for the amount of damage you did / participation.

Extra rewards for actually killing it (being there at the end) would be nice too, but that would probably melt the servers >.>

Regarding solo extremes... no, I don't want that. Too much time and effort needed for niche content in an MMORPG. But I am all for Extremes for 4 man groups.
