The ramp up on bosses is just too sudden for me. There's Zakum and Hilla - Zakum doesn't do anything lethal, and Hilla has revives. Then there's HT and PB - both with lethal skills that must be avoided, but with reasonable HP. Arkarium, lethal skills, huge HP, but you can revive. And then there's Empress, Chaos Bean, etc. - with half a dozen lethal skills, no free revives. Hard mode Root Abyss and Magnus - some revives, but insanely high HP. Enough HP that classes are locked out based on the damage cap - how ridiculous is that, a boss that can't be beaten because you'd have to be cheating to do enough damage.
I can probably take down PB, with practice and the right party. I can solo HT and lower. But the step up to Empress and CPB? It's such a huge shelf that I'm not motivated. I'd need to pretty much start from scratch on gear. I have a 40% bossing weapon and that's just plain mediocre compared to what some players have.
