Actually, that's kinda why I disliked the Ultros fight. Sure, it doesn't gate anything but more Manderville content (which, I suppose, is still a good enough reason to be unhappy), but it's basically a fight where the DPS HAS to know what they're doing. One DPS not paying attention can easily mean "welp, we're doing the fight again."
... At least until I learned about the whole "jump out of the ring beforehand" trick. Which is why I always tank Typhon when I get it as a random on Chachan. If one of the DPS died or has no water because they're punching Typhon for whatever reason... I'm waiting on that edge to jump out.
But at least that fight can be reset relatively quickly. Having to wait for SoF to play out completely before you can try again is inexcusable.
