We’ve all been in so many fights in MMOs that they mostly blend together in a memory stew of numbers, phases, buffs, debuffs, animations, and (of course) loot. But every so often there is that encounter that goes above and beyond, with an incredible set piece or particularly tricky mechanics.
One of the more recent fights that stick out for me was fighting in the Overwatch tower in Star Wars: The Old Republic. What I thought was going to be a very standard boss tank-and-spank turned into a frantic firefight involving dozens of mobs and a gunship flying outside the room and shooting out the windows.
