The Lynx boss.

The boss must die before the time lapses. If time expires during the fight, you've failed the timed run for that instance ID, and have to wait until the next reset before beginning the time trial again.

I'm fairly certain from our run last night that that the Lynx boss has substantially more HP in shaman form than the summoned cat does. Assuming that to be the case, it's a compelling reason to just dps the cat down rather than the troll.

This is just based on a quick glance I had using mob health while tanking last night, so I could be mistaken... but my impression was that the boss has around 600k, and when he splits at 75%/50%/25%, he becomes a 400k Shaman form + 200k cat add. Totems are 5k or 6k hp.
