I am wondering if anyone has a list of the Bosses and Mob in FBs and TTs that buff themselves and how often? I usually just purge and amp as a matter of habit but it would really help to know where it is really essential to purge, and where purging is a waste of time.

    Off the top of my head:

    1. Holeen, King of Frientz-something in Frost.
    2. Ape in 2-2/2-3.
    3. Belial in 2-3.
    4. Steelation in 3-1/3-2/3-3 (when he says something about having bones to crush in norm chat and does the Wind Shield genie animation).
    5. Armageddon in 3-3.
    6. Massacre Seben in Lunar (when he goes berserk; you'll know because he'll do an AOE metal DOT on the entire party).
    7. Noxious Sovereign in Nirvana.

    All the hedgehog-type mobs selfbuff with brambles - they don't usually live long enough to use it though. So Oggo the quillhog king (the culti-boss hedgehog) is really rthe only one worth purging.

    Lots and LOTS of normal mobs use an "Increase attack rate" short lived buff (everyone is on the aps craze now!) but again, they don't usually survive long enough for it to matter.

    Whirly slashy doomy boss can be purged and thus made to forget his whirly slashy doom. I REALLY do not advise this. you're much more likely to die trying it.

    I'm pretty sure one of the bosses in lunar - the cat one? self buffs a bit. But not certain of that.
    Technically the 3 minute boss and snake both self-buff, but it's not purgable.

    The one hit boss in Nirvana self pattack buff, also Arma in 3-3 only self buffs when killing something/someone. I forget if this include pets, but certainly a veno must be ready to purge when he kills any player.
