Nighthold enrage timers

[Deleted]

I really think boss berserks are entirely boring. Fights should have soft enrages whenever possible, mechanics drastically increasing the difficulty of the fight but that still aren't a guaranteed "you're dead at this time". I'm glad many of the NH fights utilize this... even though many are a "you're dead" anyways.

Although I suppose hard enrages aren't always a guaranteed death, either. I remember getting Brutallus kills after enrage with bubble-taunts.

hard enrages are needed you know -_-

I should totally be allowed to bubble Augur's Big Bang then!

ooo. I wonder if that's possible to do that x) Never actually seen bing bang before, so that would be interesting :P

Why? A soft enrage that changes the mechanics of the room can be just as 'impossible" if they really need to impose a hard limit on fight duration. Let's say Guldan enraged at X minutes, a hard enrage where the room just blew up and one-shot everyone. What's the difference between that, his next outward-growing AOE attack (I can't remember the name) covering the entire room instead of just half, or having 75 souls spawn in the middle? All three situations are pretty much a "you're screwed" to the raid but at least they're interesting and maybe, just maybe, could be survived for a few extra crucial seconds.

Does it really make a difference if a raid-wipe mechanic looks one way or another?

^nope so hard or soft, it really doesn't matter imo.
