    I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Bosses already randomly target other players avoidable attacks, they just don't suddenly drop aggro. There's also already many mechanics that tanks must deal with protect the party, like the tank towers in EX1 or grabbing tethers in EX2.

    There are bosses that ignore the tank and just attack random players, but they aren't all that threatening, especially for tanks since the damage has to be low enough that it doesn't 1-shot other roles. Using 4 tanks against Rathalos Extreme was very common back in the day because of this.

    What would the mini-game to stop the boss from "raging" be? Provoke it? Stun it? An Active Time Maneuver? Could use an example.

    What I mean by rage mechanic is:

    You can't stun provoke or anything the boss will attack dps only that is most annoying to them

    The attacks is avoidable but if tank didn't succeed to knockout the boss within the time frame.. boss attack will be harder to avoid.

    How knockout will be idk but it could be a mini game that tank has to do within time frame
