GeneralDecoy Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 How about a change to pulls and pushes that incorporate Boss Immunity in a more realistic manner? For example, if you use Force Push on any target with the Boss Immunity buff, you will instead get launched backwards. For Force Pull, you end up pulling yourself into the target. Basically, the target with the Boss Immunity buff becomes an anchor point for pushes and pulls, but still immune to knockback effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could be used to make some creative scenarios but not for every class... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyrusramsey Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I really like the boss inmunity it makes it a challenge. While I can understand why it's in the game, it always felt like an extremely overused cheap trick to me. It shows a lack of creativity. As for the suggestion: I like it. It allows for abilities to close and create gaps to keep some of their function when fighting enemies with the immunity without going as far as having to rethink all the existing fights affected.

No. I understand that it's in the game, as I said, and I realize that most of the more interesting alternatives in large scale fights would not be feasible on this engine, but the vast majority of enemies with boss immunity are not enemies that are fought with 16 or 8 players. It'll be that solo instance boss, that elite that they don't want pushed off the edge, even some totally randoms. It is overused, a lot.
