    Why doesn't world event bosses become scenarios?

    Like Headless Horseman and others - it's just one boss, don't make much sense to be dungeons, would be nice if they become scenarios so that you don't have to wait in the queue. You can even do them without tank or healer.

    That...... is a very good idea.

    You would still have to wait in a queue if it was a scenario, just hopefully a shorter one.

    A significantly shorter one. Most of my ques tend to fill up with 3 dps around the 2 minute mark, and then have to wait for 5-10 minutes fora tank, healer, or both. Scenarios would be overall much better for all of the holiday bosses.

    I have no idea why they aren't. They already don't require tanks or healers for the actual fight.

    I have wondered this since the first months of Mists. When people moved on from Galleon and the Sha of Anger I had thought the easiest and simplest way to keep them from being lonely was to put them into 40-man scenarios. Never happened obviously. Still something of a mystery.

    Noooooo, it takes the feel they currently have away. Also it would stop people from paying me to tank them for them for faster queues.

    I think OP meant only event bossrs... Like Horsman... But i agree that also world bosses should be instanced

    Oops. Guess I misunderstood. But yeah, it's something I've wondered about for a long while now. Once world bosses get beyond their shelf life, why not?

    Event bosses, yes. World bosses no. If world bosses become instanced in their own bubble, then they immediately (by nature) cease to be a world boss.

    I get the irony of that but after a while no one is visiting them anyway. Just create an instanced fight for them but still leave them in the world. It seems like they go mostly to waste otherwise. Lot of the game follows that path though so...

    The only reason to farm the world bosses are Felblight, Rukhmar mount and Pepe achievement.

    So... Esentially, you only need to kill them once, and you're done. (Except for Rukhmar).

    Even when they were dropping "relevant" gear they weren't popular.

    They really should have something bringing them back to relevancy.

    I'd have to back this up, it is a damn fine idea. In fact, removing the need for a tank or healer means it may even be possibly to give such fights a quick yearly tweak so they're not quite the same.

    But, with the exception of event bosses that become active near the start of an xpac, they're generally already a scenario fight as it is anyway.
