Should Blizzard make "funny" enrages ?

[Asgard]

Title says, well... nothing.

What I was thinking, was that bosses in raids could have "gimmick" enrages, and not simply +1000% damage, kill tank 1 and 2, kill DPS, kill healers.

For example I can imagine :
- Marrowgar splitting his axe into two 1h axes and making a huuuuuge bonestorm
- Saurfang spawning 50 beasts with +300% movement speed
- Deathwisper swirling around casting a Frostbolt every 0.1sec on a random raid member
- Lich King picking one raid member, killing him, and then casting Corpse Explosion on him
- Putricide covering the room with goo
- Sartharion flying above the raid spitting fiery balls
- Thaddius putting random + and - signs on every body, pulling them all in melee and stunning them all

See what I mean ? That could be a nice addition to the game imo.

[Scifix]

Would be kinda fun tbh, but still, lots of bosses are killed after they enrage, this would make that not possible

[Nartalath]

That would be some serious hilarity.

Festergut could auto-puke everyone.

[Vetis]

I like it, they still mean the boss will wipe if its not handled quickly but gives some leverage to manage the enrage for those previous 1/2% wipes if the group and co-ordinate.

- Thaddius putting random + and - signs on every body, pulling them all in melee and stunning them all

That would be hilarious

[BetrayedOf52]

Yeah, most of they would be pretty funny but my guild has cleared bosses before with like 4 seconds into enrage. I know i would be pissed off if boss was 5% then flys into the air or just stuns everyone before you could bust out that little dps to down him.

The best in-game example of this I can think of is Shade of Aran, who basically casts Mirror Image and goes to town. There should be more cool enrages like that :P

Patch 3.5, deep inside the hellfire citadel with an random pug.
[Tank]: I shouldn't be tank AND main dps guys.. step it up
[DPS]: Yeah no, me and my guildies made this group to see what they did with TBC enrages; sorry for this.
[Tank]: FFFFFUU-

^^ I actually wanted to reply to this thread with simply "No." but that wouldn't of been very imaginative - still for the record though...

No.

Then at the moment he flies into the air, the enrage timer runs out...
You'll just have to kill him 4 seconds before THAT.

If anything there should be a popup box that says

You failed to defeat X within X minuts. Retry?
[Yes][No]

This is a great idea and they should implement it.

Some funny way of dieing instead of aura tick damage x 1000 insta kill like most bosses do now would be an interesting addition to the game

No.

considering that hellfire citadel pug is a 5 man ... and every boss that the OP talked about is a raid boss .... yeah

Also, do 5 man bosses even have a hard enrage timer? I dont think so ...

[kiphemyst]

- Putricide covering the room with goo

ehm... i think this already happens since in p3 you cant eat any green stuff

[Video Games]

Yes, I think it would be a great idea. Blizzard always adds funny stuff to their games.

[toat]

Reminds me of the Firefighter enrage. "Self destruct sequance complete. Have a nice day" And the room begins exploading dealing 25k a second to everyone in the room.

[ejzo]

i work for Blizzard an i approve this suggestion

[Blinke]

I think Arthas should just cast Hungering Cold on everyone, activate Cold Snap, and then Howling blast crit the raid for 900,001 damage.

He specced 71/71/71

[geonexus]

Nothing says screw you like a boss doing something funny when he slaughters your entire raid.

[Hethor]

[Yes][No]

I support this idea.

[Kaneiac]

They've done this a few times.

Mimiron enrage has a unique enrage mechanic, and Patchwerk in 40man Naxx used to throw slime EVERYWHERE when he enraged. I'm unsure if he still does that, as...well...I've never came close to hitting enrage on his WoTLK form.
