Oh yeah, I forgot about those! The first encounter on the ship in Dun Scaith used to be the same way, if you got knocked off. I think there's room for certain rare fights to have quirks like that, to add a twist and crank up the tension of certain mechanics. I just wouldn't want it to be the norm for all content. That way, we curse and blame the boss monster, and not the players.

This suggestion just comes off as someone wanting to lord of others / being seen as "the savior" due to a system that has no reason to exist in the first place.
Players might seek to abuse the system in that way, but I think Renalt's intentions with this topic were good. They were just presenting an idea to increase the sense of challenge in the game. It's just a suggestion. Sort of like releasing a game in "Early Access," so players can discover all the bugs that may not have been apparent.
