Monster Changes

Bosses now have an Anti-Burst damage mechanic: Once a boss has finished it’s emerge or becomes aggro the damage reduction period starts counting down. The damage reduction tapers down from full effect to no effect over the course of this duration. For every unit the boss moves from it’s starting location the damage reduction will fall off even faster. Bosses which cannot or barely move have a shorter damage reduction period.
