    Kerafyrm wasn't a boss. Kerafyrm was a world event. SOE intended The Sleeper to be unkillable and did everything but make the thing literally unkillable. The proof is that SOE saw the guild alliance killing Kerafyrm and DESPAWNED the dragon because they thought that they were exploiting in order to accomplish it. After the uproar, SOE reset the event and let the guild alliance attempt it. After 3 hours of suiciding themselves at the dragon they finally killed it. Their reward? NOTHING.

    The dragon didn't drop any loot. It had no loot table. Why? Because it wasn't a freaking boss. And it's "mechanics" were killing everyone one by one. Luckily it was expansions after The Sleeper was added, so they had better gear, and they had 200 people and could just toss bodies at it and rez 1000 times spamming Manaburn/Harmtouch and melee/pets until the thing finally died. Epic? Sure. Interesting mechanics? Absolutely not.

    Not a good example.
