I will be a villain and as the final end boss my fight will be nothing but me standing there, monologuing for the entire fight about how you can never defeat me, how I will rule everything blah blah.
And during this “fight” I will randomly call someone out in raid and mock them for their mog/ lack of enchants/gems/ achieves.
This will cause an uncurable debuff called “triggered” that will cause the target to curl into a ball on the ground and be one shot.
If the target has everything in order, then that will proc my “enrage” and I will go on a rant about elitists and I will take double damage.
My drops will be twenty different reskins of a horse mount, because I’m human, what did you expect me to drop?
Chilibean the tall & fearless Paladin has been slain!
Curse of the frozen bean applied to your account.
:All critters gain “adorable wrath” allowing them to become immortal, always keep you in combat and aggro from any range. Critters dismount you and prevent flight form. If using a glider, critters swarm you and latch on dealing 2% dmg every second.
Each time a piece of gear breaks, lose one battle pet from your collection. The lost pet is summoned & turns against you, draining your mana / resource by 4% every second. Upon death, the players demise is broadcast throughout the game while a laugh-track is played. When you Rez, a shade of chilibean follows you around in a ghostly sleigh pulled by fallen critters that randomly dismount you & interrupt your abilities from time to time.
I’mma go out in a blaze of glory.
Alongside everyone else.
The second the raid team steps in my room I’m immediately blowing it up with all of us in it.
I know I’m going to die, I might as well go out on my own terms.
I’m not a chick let alone conventially attractive one so no plot armor redemption arc for me. I’m ok with going out like a man instead of being some weeb’s nightly fantasy.
That said, if I were a villian, I’d actually be smart and place my lair way out in the middle of nowhere and have absolutely no treasure/loot and would do all I can to break the rules of an encounter like being able to ignore tanks to kill squishies instead as well as take and/or destroy their armor and effects as well as having untelegraphed mechanics.
This … sounds interesting. Maybe a mechanic for encouraging competitive raid performance. Each week, players who successfully completed the raid at X difficulty (mythic? I dunno) get their names tossed into a virtual hat, from which a certain number are drawn. If chosen, a clone is made of them to be used as mobs in the raid for that week. Some can be trash mobs, others could be lieutenant-type mobs for a boss or two. It could be kept as simple as requiring a certain number of each class throughout the raid, and the winners’ are simply used as skins for those mobs (name/appearance) using a standard set of abilities so difficulty can’t be manipulated in any way.
Unimaginative and non-committal. Nothing is at stake when you have a do-over at the end of every expansion (or not too distant future). Knowing the “good guy” is ultimately going to live every episode gets old. That being said, if core characters are going to fall (in death or otherwise), it needs to be for believable reasons (Arthas comes to mind) and not just “my edginess got the better of me when that half of my fractured soul went HAM that one time”.
I do not play a dk to be the good guy. All dks who call themselves “the good guys” are less than me and I shun them. I have nothing to do with them. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have atrocities to do. The city wont level itself.
