Killing bosses D-E-D dead! 

Just found this little tidbit of info on boss battles. Click the quote for the official forum thread:
QUOTE
Will we be killing the same old bosses over and over in the game?
No, one of the innovating aspects of the play is the opportunity given to players to truly leave a trace, and to influence the environment. For example, a large boss present in the world will only be able to be killed once. Not "we killed this one boss thing last week – we’ll go kill him again this evening". Thus each exploit will have truly a heroic value in the world and will constitute notable events within the community.


This all seems like a real interesting concept to me. I don't know exactly how they plan to do it, but I think they'd need a whole lotta names and textures to be able to replace bosses as they get killed.

RE: Killing bosses D-E-D dead! 

Yeah, but those'll probably be the insane bosses that are darn near impossible to kill, and take everyone in the entire game about three months to do.

Still, it does seem kind of unfair. But I can live with that, in exchange for the realism, which is nice.

I actually really like this idea. It means when you take down a boss, you are the only ones to do it. Rather than everyone taking down the same guy every night of the week. I love the idea of unique bosses. I just wanna see how different they are all from eachother.

Finaly! 

This is one of the things that i hate about WoW, killing the same bosses over and over again, and i also think that this prob just involve the greater bosses, something like Nefarian and Onyxia in WoW.
I guess the "race" to take them down can be a bit.. stressful?
All the guilds and houses prob want the trophy from them.

I cant wait to see how its all gonna work.

RE: Killing bosses D-E-D dead! 

Once a boss has been defeated other players will be able to visit the contents while doing Ancestral Quests. But yes, only one bunch of players will get to kill him in the "live" world.

I like the fact that you only need to kill the boss one time in your current character's lifetime.
