Please, make bosses more random (tactics)

[Onyxys]

Greetings. Dear developers, please, make future bosses (and whole fights) with more random tactics. What do we have now- all bosses has stable rotation of all skills and punches. It is very boring. You need just to learn the rotation. Not funny, not interesting. Why not to let the bosses to use skills in random way, so noone can know what will be next. Tera is a god example- yes, bosses have phases depends on the amount of HP, but skill using is random or the rotation is not even clear to see. This is good. Thank you

Thumbs up...

All I have to add is....:

Be careful when adding fast reaction delay affected mechanics. Thank you!

He'll change his mind when at 25% Titan ex 'randomly' does three mountain busters in a row.

I was thinking of line bombs with landslide and random plumes, plus a mountain buster followed by an upheaval.

Oh, don't forget the egis he summoned right before the bombs!

So to summerize his random rotation, without any spare time between casts....

Egis -> Line bombs -> Plumes -> 5way Slide -> mountain buster -> Gaols+Upheaval

This can be prevented by putting a 'cooldown' on certain skills so they cannot be spammed by the monster/boss.

End game is all about learning rotations and mastering phase after phase. It's pretty frustrating playing with others that don't know it well hence why df groups fail 99 percent of the time. Also most players have to look up guides and memorize them in order to succeed.

No, the latency is too terribad for this.

Well the point is to hit a sweet spot where you can comfortably learn and know the fight, but the fight doesn't become TOO mechanical as in someone figures out the most perfect way to do the fight undisputedly. You need some X factor, but you still need a line of good/experienced and poor/inexperienced play.

agreed. I like knowing whats coming to a certain degree, but you need to have an X factor. Titan Extreme is a good example of a scripted fight that you definitely don't want with random tactics. Ifrit hard would be a good example of a fight that needs a bit of an x factor. 19 eruptions in a row, thanks to the RNG please ^^

id also like if, ala FFXII (12) that when enemies get low on health their auto-attacks combo'd. as it is, they just toss their auto attack in there. should be more like tumult with titan.
