Even as someone who hasn’t done savage since like, Deltascape floor 1&2 (longboi dragon and eyeball) it was always a given that a fight would probably have some form of ‘enrage’.

Not to say that it always being there makes it ‘correct’ or ‘ideal’ design. But aren’t enrages also overcome mostly passively by improving gear anyway? I always figured they used them because you can either surpass early them with ‘skill’, or by ‘preparation’ by getting the absolute best gear and melds and whatever beforehand. The latter takes longer but means even those who struggle can still have a chance

There are a few in the alliance raids(first boss in dun scaith comes to mind - fight goes too long and all 8 squares are dangerous to the death cast). In normal trials bismark will eventually break the island, and ravanna will eventually smash all the walls(anti-knockback would still save you, and... if you line up directly with a pillar does that work? do the pillars stand and block? not sure). There are also a couple more who add damage+ at the end of their cycle, so if you let them drag forever they become unhealable. But normal-difficulty enrages are pretty rare overall.

Hmm did we play the same unreal? This is HEAPS better than the last one. We had like 10 deaths and still cleared... on the first attempt... blind. It's nearly as easy as the normal mode version TBH. The last one, Suzaku, on the other hand is a nasty snapshot-fest with ultra strict DPS check that if get 2 deaths, it's a near enrage.

So not sure where this is coming from.
