Tigole:

Disappointed yet still eager to keeel, we headed over to Dorf Town to lay our blades to that cacksugger, The Dain. For those of you who follow our exploits, you’ll remember that we have never gotten to fight His Shittyiness the Dain. Each time he has poofed on us. Well, I hate to say it but when the Dain declared this last night, he wasn’t joking:Dain Frostreaver IV: “You will not pull me Tigole”

Yup, he was right
4 Dain Attempts, 4 Poofs

Now for all you critics sitting at home I’d like to point out the following. Each time we have pulled the Dain, we have used a different method. We have attempted him in multiple spots. It’s not like we enjoy getting everyone to Dorf Town, killing a bunch of high-hit-point-crap-loot-dropping-dorfs only to Poof the Dain because of our Dain-pulling-gimpyness. I’d like to think we have a very decent record of not doing dumbass-gimp things. . .just look at the mobs we have killed time and time again. I seriously hope VI takes a look into this problem or else issues some kind of statement that the Dain is poofing as intended. . .in which case. . .why the fug would you make a mob that poofs for 7 days? Please Verant — log in and send me a tell. It’s obvious your Quality Assurance guys are far too busy making sure the fire beetle pathing in West Commons is working right to spend any time on one of the main mobs of your new expansion. LoS will gladly give you some QA time if you’d like to witness your programming at it’s worst.

Dain was a somewhat important mob, in that he dropped good things.

Here’s the problem.

If you screwed up pulling Dain, he disappeared.

For 7 days.
