Kaug... more to him?

[U. Dye]

The following is an IM conversation between me and Rand. I removed names.

[Me]: Also, I had a thought about Kaug just now.
[Me]: We all know how to kill him. Push his ass over the edge. I don't see why he shouldn't be able to do the same. Grabs somebody one round and begins moving backward with them (this paralyzes them). If he's not stopped (via doing x amount of damage to him, or maybe stunning him), he'll hurl them over the edge.
[Rand]: That combined with everything else might make it too difficult. Unless it were a second round, where he came back up on the otehr side of the bridge beat up or something and tried to do that.
[Me]: I could see a second round happening... Just because we push him over the edge doesn't mean he can't, like, grab it or something.
[Rand]: Or climb back up.
[Me]: Yeah, that's what I was getting at.
[Rand]: Though it'd be something to ascertan from Kija first. That'd be some badass regeneration even for Kaug.,
[Me]: Well, I meant he grabs a rock jutting out a bit below the cliff edge and climbs back up from there. Short fall.
[Rand]: He'd still have to get beaten up some by it, though. No one goes overa cliffedge unscathed
[Me]: True. But hey, much more believable that he could regenerate from that than regenerating from the full fall.
[Me]: Another scenario I just thought of... Party starts to cross the bridge, but halfway across, a couple more Bridge Trolls stop them, and Kaug comes back up from the other side. The party is in a pincer, and Kaug is hurling people over the bridge one by one, starting from the back.
[Rand]: No, if it were a full fall he'd be done.
[Rand]: Why dont you forum these ideas? I don't mind the thought myself, but I want to see what other people have to say too
[Me]: Hm. Think I will, in a little while.

I do indeed like the ideas, I wouldn't mind Kaug being more *challenging.* The problem is, his battle takes a freakin' long time if the stars, moon, and planets don't align with ya.

However, if he was toned down to not recover as often from being pushed, the second battle would be nice -- if people didn't have to move. I know in the latest Kaug battle I was in the entire party disbanded like a minute after it was finished. It would just surprise a bunch of people, piss them off, and more or less kill the ability to solo unless you are a dragoon or can deal 900 damage in one turn.

Exceptional conversation but i did not like the whole paralyzing this, i believe i got enough of that for V8 Gry, the nubcake...Either way, it does seem to involve the principle of using tactic as a means of winning. It does seem "harder" also but just commenting on it, nice ideas being thrown around.

Each boss has to be unique so thats why i didnt like the paralysis but meh, everything else looks peachy
