Nightmare zone has seemingly become less active in the past years, especially since ironmen have no reason beyond imbuing(of which there are many better options). Additionally, learning new bosses can be quite intimidating for new/mid game players. The introduction of the rat boss seems to be a step towards this issue, but I think revitalizing old content is a better option.
Adding every non-raid boss to nightmare zone would be a wonderful way for players to practice bosses without wasting tons of supplies. This should also help newer players be more willing to attempt these bosses, knowing that they will not be wasting their time or gold doing so. This could also provide end game players with a better way to try out new methods/gear set-ups existing bosses.
Implementation: Add every non-raid boss to the nightmare zone, requiring access to the actual boss to choose the option. Just like the other quest bosses that already exist there. The instance might have an increased fee like 50k or so for the dream. The points rewarded could be scaled to be appropriate in a way that does not diminish the value of the actual bosses loot. Like KQ's awful drop table for example lol. Or offer no points at all and keep the entry fee lower(20k for example, similar to a hard rumble)
What do you guys think?
