For those who wonder, the Boss in question did have the word 'Improved' in his/her/its title.

I agree! My first (and most likely, only) attempt at Ascension I made with a swashbuckler that had ~200 DI by game's end. If this is the same boss I'm thinking of, isn't DI the
greatest? One round to shear off all protections, then unload a nice potent barrage of death on one target, take a round to recover, and repeat.
Imagine Mariel and Anomen facing a lich. She'd take out his protections with DI, he'd take out the lich with TU. This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship...
