I remember in FFXI trying to kill a bunny rabbit once. When I pulled said bunny, I noticed the Monty Python rabbit taking notes as the poor Elvaan that was my avatar went from full health to being evenly coated across the zone. It wasn't even aggressive, but good gravy it made hell look tepid in comparison when I hit it with my sword. I wouldn't mind stuff like this running around the starter zones in XIV for lowbies to try and fight as a party for kicks.

That's kinda what those lv13(?) mobs are for, maybe. The Treant for Shroud, the Goobbue for La Noscea, and ??? for Thanalan. Admittedly, not as fun though when you can see the level, and not just learn through painful experience what "Incredibly Tough" meant.

I also remember fun stuff people did, like Bubbly Bernie: HNM-style! (Bubbly Bernie is a notorious monster spawned as part of a low level quest. He's level 10. Folks would take him on with a full alliance of 18 level 1 characters for kicks.)

Same folks (at least in mindset) that also used to do Hogger runs in WoW before they changed everything. /sigh a different era where players coming up with things to have fun with was the norm, not the exception (nor something negatively viewed upon towards a "lack of content").
