i like the idea of a hardcore mode something where mobs/bosses have normal hp do normal damage but have strengths/weaknesses which can make the fights varied and allowing for 2/3 mobs/boss fight at same time
also gives option to introduce new content into game (aka weapon ess for weapon morphing) or entirely new content (epic and lg potions for example) anything to move away from daily grind and help keep players playing (i myself have just had a break from doing same thing everyday) which not only helps community stay active it will also help with tc prices (people not playing is people not blissing for tcs)
to build on this idea a bit:
hardcore bossbaited fights example using whale eater (n lake boss)
uses crushing attacks and uses all the crushing skills (skills are at 88 same lvl as boss)
players do 15% less red DD damage 10% less blue DD damage
players do 10% more melee damage and pets have 5% greater crit chance
gem pouch is more varied with a random (randomly generated or randomly selected from a pre-determined list) gems including healing gems, auras, dots and makes use of the gem shatter ability (once again gem shatter skill would be 88 same lvl as boss)
rewards could be a small chance of a random item the boss normally drops on 1st kill (lets say 1/250 [1/500 for accel and 1/1500 for normal] chance) on top of normal gold chest
now heres where we can get creative by introducing a chance for lets say weapon ess at for example a 1/5000 (1/10000 for accel and 1/30000 for normal) drop rate for a random weapon ess. with this kind of mode you could easily then go and add new items to game making it only acessiable by turning on this mode and then getting lucky finding a item from boss
