What exactly did the improved encounter design do?

[Maltothoris]

The point is, the 'lack of creativity in encounter design' is so fundamental, so 'at the core' of their thinking, that even the end of the fight is the same thing: 9999999 damage raidwide, you died go again

It is kinda sad how the last unique enrage to my knowledge is A11s with the platform health and cruise chaser's move doing damage until you have only one generator left and then it ending the ga-100 that destroys it.

After that, it's either the 9999999 damage or just j-wave style aoes.
