The Lair bosses have far more going on than obsession. On top of that he dubuffs your ability to heal as well. Phase 1 get all tokens on your tank, phase 2 damage race an insane twice a turn nuke that hits for 30 damage base which is the bosses only move outside of marking characters when none are marked. Its no wonder that many take multiple runs to figure this out if they don't seek out an explanation online. Yet despite that your actually meant to let the eyes progress to their 3rd phase while trying to get all the tokens on your tank. This actually gets reinforced because if you let the tokens stay on a character the eyes start using damage and stress ability's on them. So after teaching the player to engage with special tokens in that manner the obvious thing to do is kill the eyes to stop them applying the tokens. In both cases the counter play is to damage/kill the enemy to prevent the attack or build up of worship on champion cultists.

Up to this point the players experience with special tokens will be the chapter two boss and cultists with worship. Nor is there any hint that said token is basically a target marker for phase two. The eye progression and tokens are not explained, nor is it explained that they only target their opposite rank. The boss is really bad for a number of reasons.
