The glorious Red Panda boss named Ailurus has the following known abilities:

Panda Intimidate: All non-red pandas nearby are debuffed as pretenders or "Pretendarens" permanently reducing all damage done by 100% and suggesting the player delete the Pretendaren character and roll up a proper beast, like a Charr.

Tail Swipe: Deals low damage to all targets in a 45 degree angle behind the Red Panda. All targets hit are immobilized, held in place by a desire to feel the soft fluffiness of the tail once more.

OmNomNom: The Red Panda begins chewing on some bamboo, healing itself for 1% health per second over 10 seconds, channeled. All characters within 100 yards are affected by the "Baawww" debuff, making it impossible for them to attack Ailurus.

Frolic: Increased movement speed by 20% as the Red Panda rolls and prances about. This ability can be used at will and has a 50% chance to affect nearby characters with "Baawww" debuff.

He doesn't have a lot of attacks, but good luck forcing yourself to attack him!

1) Whirlwind - Red Panda chases after his tail. The spin direction is random, but always towards an attacker; does big amounts of damage.
2) Snow Waves - buries players in waves of snow, for 50 damage/wave but it adds a -50% movement speed debuff. (its harder to evade the Whirlwind).
3) Karate Chop - Hits one player at a time in the head and renders him/her in downed state. Hits max. 10% of the players that are participating at the event, for every 20% HP he is missing.
4) Rage - at 10% HP it enters a immune state for 20 sec; he pulls out from his back a laser gun that shoots a magenta ink like ray that disarms the players hit. It prevents the players from equipping the weapon that he/she was holding for 2 min, and for elementalists it adds a cooldown on the attunement.

If a Giant Red Panda were a boss in GW2....?

Ok, simple.

He'd be big, of course, occupy a rather large semi-wooded arena/area. The boss would be mobile and have elemental attacks of fire and ice as such:

The boss alternates between two stages; in stage one he releases an Ice Aura that turns the area/stage into a snow zone, his attacks(physical and range) are all fire type that slowly alter the arena/area. After about 60% of the stage is altered, he releases the flame Aura that transforms the stage to fire one and his attacks, as expected, are of ice types.

He does this a total of 6 times through the fight with the first Ice stage being snow, second is icy slippery ground with heavy snow, third is foggy blizzard (sliding goes away) with large ice pillars. As for fire, the stage starts off hazy with slight warps to the screen. Second is red hot, with the trees of the woods on fire and hot spots on the floor for damage. Third stage has large twisters of fire, a manageable amount but there nonetheless with persistent damage if you are too close to the boss without a debuff from the previous ice field.

Now for the physical attacks. On an ice stage, he has fiery swipes, that come in either 1-2 or 2-4 swipes, small fire balls that radiate (few and easy to dodge) and a fire tail he spins. As the stage increases (for ice stage 2 and three) his attacks get stronger. For example, the fire swipes start radiating outward (previously a close range attack) the fire balls become bigger, and the fire tail doubles. He also becomes a large fire boulder and randomly rolls around the field in the last stage. Second stage however he can also summon small fire foxes for both a pun to firefox and cuz... well, they look like foxes.
For the fire fields he can trap a random player (or players) in a pillar of ice, no special targeting, just random. He fires, ice rods and slams his tail to the ground for a small circle of ice spikes to sprout.
Again, these attacks increase as the stages move forward, and the tail slam's spikes start to move in a line outward and the ice rods he fires become more rapid and 1, 2, 3 at a time. in stage 2, his claws become large ice fists for close range punches, and in the third stage he summons two great-wolves (just cuz, you know, winter is coming).

The tells for the stage transition are a long animation and a scream to the sky, this way everyone can position them selves, grab whatever buffs were placed to the stage for the next one. Also, in the ice stage, players trapped in ice aren't completely out of play as the freeze time becomes longer they still play by getting to see a timer for his stage transition and glows or hints to the next attacks. Not uber helpful but enough to have the team ready. This is not emulated in the ice zones, and instead, the whole group can see the tell by haze around the boss.

Thats all. Hope it wins :)

I'll think of 4 skills. If I think of anymore, I'll add them in.
Alright. Hm, let me think. They look so moe moe~kyun! so I will think of cute and simple skills!

He'd be in a snowy area, because that's what the video had.
1 - Glomp
He'd fall on you as a ball of cuteness after trying to pull of a different skill and deal AOE physical based damage based off of how close you were to the area of impact

2 - The Fluffy Fierce Ball
The Red Panda will roll up into a ball of fluffiness and will continue to quickly roll around in ball for 10 seconds dealing physical damage. Projectile attacks such as arrows will be reflected off him and attempting to attack him close up will result in damage to yourself too.

3 - Kawaii Truck
You've been struck by the kawaii truck! The panda jumps to the nearest branch and attempts to clumsily climb around the tree. You are dazzled by how adorable the panda is and will wander towards the panda for 2-3 seconds.

4 - Playful Tail
The Red Panda will grab the nearest player with his tail and disable him for 7 seconds whilst the panda plays with the player. At the end of the skill, the player is thrown aside and is dealt physical damage.

5 - Immortality!
The Red Panda will never be slain. Before he is killed, the Red Panda becomes invulnerable and jumps to the nearest tree and climbs away very even more clumsily as usual because he is tired from the fight. He drops loot for the players who partook in the scuffle as a thank you for playing with him as he runs away.

If the red panda was a giant boss in GW2 then his abilities would be,

Charm: Turns one of your allies into a red panda for 1min
Pound: Slams the ground for 60% of your HP
Beastly Roar: Damages and knocks back all enemies in front of the panda
Tail swing: The panda swings his giant fluffy tail in a cone damaging everyone 20 yrds around the panda ( doesn't do much damage because his tail is to fluffy to hurt)
Back scratch: Scratches its back summoning flees to fight for the panda.

If a red panda was a giant boss, one of his skills would be a passive called the Snow grave. Once every 20 seconds, the Red Giant Panda would start running all over the walls of the instance, making snow fall to the ground, snaring the players, and applying the "Snow Grave" debuff on them. This skill would then make his passive, "The Snow Hunter", proc. The Snow Hunter makes the panda destroy instantly any entity, be it player or object, that has the Snow Grave debuff, after a short animation in which the panda enters a frenzied state and starts jumping around and attacking the entity.


He would be a very OP giant boss.

Also, he would have the "Climb Anything" ability, which would let him walk around everywhere like a baws, and another ability called "Plant Eater", which would let him regen his health after eating plant stuff around the insta.
