    Knowing SE must have done graphs with dmg curves etc for every classes, I am wondering what they thought about and what they found.

    I mean, maybe they designed the MCH to be lower on purpose but able to be suddenly stronger for dps check (so when really needed) so they are less likely to fail such boss phases.

    I'm just wondering what SE thought about. We are well placed to say what we think about it, if it's feeling frustrating, not fun, not fair etc, but they must have designed something viable in their mind, and I'm wondering what it is, so I believe they think it's ok to have less overall dps to explose scores for dps checks?

    Edit 1 : Kinda same for DRG, they are less strong overall but bring short but high boosts for dps check phases. And DRG upgrading also Machinist's dmg with Disembowel (reducing target's piercing resistance by 5%), maybe they are made for this. Not about having buffs for others to be a part of their "dps", but having buffs to be better at hard dps check phases.

    Edit 2 : In a way, it's shorter to make a hard boss in 10min instead of 8minutes if you needed 4 tries to succeed the 8minutes run, while you needed only 1 or 2 to succeed the 10minutes one. IRL timer counts too. Not only IG one.

    Edit 3 : They even changed the dmg boost from Hypercharge to be for everyone instead of just physical dmg (so even the neutral moves if there's some?). So in a way, we can see it as it's good whatever is your team, so maybe they are better to make sure to pass dps check phase, whatever your team is, and if they are good or not. So better with random people?
    I'm not saying it's that, but I'm really trying to think about what is their overall design and the reason they are the way we see them for now instead of just being a "oops we (SE) didn't realize" mistake.
