That's the thing. It's one thing to get close to a potential failure, and another to enter a less telegraphed fight with temp lockout mechanics and eat definitive wipes. Of the two, Mist Dragon is the superior boss-battle. Even when you know the mechanics, still plenty of room for royal screw-ups or accidents to challenge everyone else, whereas my one and only encounter with MrPooBoss involved correctly guessing mechanics and the rest being something that RandoJoe could handle while you're blissfully unaware of what's going on. At the end of the day, music aside (love the ambient creepiness of the (Hard) dungeon, just like its original), I greatly prefer the Burn's bosses. Even the 2nd boss was a cramped panic during my first blind encounter. Just a much more enjoyable experience and a pleasure to experience blind and actually feel bad for not knowing what is going on when it did lead to wipes with an equally blind group.

Having said that, I am not one to spoil it for myself by researching first. Getting new content and wading into it with a blindfold on is the most exciting point for me in games like this (especially as a Healer), mostly because they all eventually get put into farm/or/forget territory so quickly.
