    Request: "Endless" mode battle against the 7.3 trial boss

    (Spoilers, obviously.)

    OK hear me out. Necron is a primal that's supposed to get stronger every time you kill it. What if that actually happened? I want a version of the fight where every time you kill it, its health bar refills and it powers up. No enrage, no way to actually win. (Edit with realization: I guess you'd technically "win" if you made it to the lockout without wiping, but how likely is that?) Instead there can be rewards and bragging rights based on how long you last.

    I would also like a variant where he gets stronger based on the person in the group with the least amount of kills, but rewards also scale up in some fashion. Like you get more tokens, and there's some long-term rewards you'll always want to re-buy from the tokens.

    But it'd be non-optional. If everyone has 20 or more kills, Necron is at +20. No way to change that with that group. It's the nature of Necron that it'll eventually be so strong you cannot beat it.

    This would make for a fun side content for sure. Maybe a minstrel ballad content so it doesn’t break canon but sound fun and could bring a fun grind and rewards if done right

    Something like that would be actually new and interesting.
    However you'd also add some more things to it otherwise it's just DDR that takes longer and longer.

    Like how BA does Raids where difficulty stages also have added quirks apart from just more dmg and more hp.

    That's something that would be interesting to grind, rewards stacking up the higher a stage you reach and not "Farm this same EX for 99 times lol"

    Depending on whether we took the normal or the extreme version there would probably also have to be a ramp-down in mechanics, simply due to the accumulating mental fatigue.
    Necron currently takes somewhere between 8-10 minutes (we have no clear data on the average normal mode killtime so I just assume 8 minutes here as well), killing him twice could already take longer than most ultimates.
    With no interruptions between "power-ups" it quickly becomes about being able to even concentrate enough to execute mechanics correctly.

    But I definitely like the idea, it would be an interesting new concept.
