-The **beta boss randomization** is a rework of the previous [[boss_randomization]] feature. Where the legacy boss randomization only swapped single-target bosses with other single-target bosses and did the same for double-target bosses (leaving bosses with 3 or more targets as they were), the newer version does a much better job of mixing them up. Single- and double-target bosses can not only mingle with each other, but with few exceptions, bosses with 3 or more targets are now part of the shuffled pool as well.+The **beta boss randomization** is a rework of the previous [[flags:boss_randomization|boss randomization]] feature.

 In 3.2 Boss Randomization, the twin boss is not treated as a separate "single" slot with two targets as it was before - it can now be a repeated "twin" of a boss that players have already seen in the seed. The major things to note are that **having already seen a boss does not exclude it from appearing in the Ocean Palace** and **Dalton Plus is now eligible for the Twin Boss slot** (previously he was banned from it for being too difficult - balance changes have also been made to accommodate this). In 3.2 Boss Randomization, the twin boss is not treated as a separate "single" slot with two targets as it was before - it can now be a repeated "twin" of a boss that players have already seen in the seed.

 +===== Boss HP =====
 +
 +Currently, the beta boss randomization uses a formula to scale boss HP depending on the location where it's slotted. There is a [[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/148AHLZek_gITSTPaLOKCbhKdfdz4na-y5syeg_iVEHg|spreadsheet]] of this info from the [[guides]] page.
 +
 +We are looking into using spot-based HP like the legacy boss randomization had, but it needs to be tested further and for the time being the above will remain in place.
