Arlgunik the Green dragon rare spawn in the Broken Tooth Hole area, next to the harnak bush, is the toughest dragon I've seen outside of dungeons, it has a lot more HP and does more damage than any other overworld dragon I've come across. And it doesn't have any extra or special loot. It absolutely ripped apart my conj spec buffed fire elemental, I summoned in another player to fight it. A fully buffed lvl 30 melee can fight it fairly easily, but it's still got a ton of HP and took a while to go down. It feels like the dragon should have some kind of special or extra loot, since it's a rare spawn and is difficult. Sort of like a rare boss mob that can appear.
Another rare spawn that is difficult vs reward is the storm giant thing on top of Mt Valtheran. It's easier than Arlgunik, but, doesn't really give much reward or even a lot of XP. I think the challenge is fair for people doing writs or leveling, but, the XP it gives or loot it gives could be boosted. Otherwise I always avoid it now when I see it, because I burn more resources fighting it than I get back in reward from beating it.
I think it would be cool if rare spawns spawned treasure chest loot on them, so it's like getting an extra treasure chest in a dungeon or while adventuring. It would make rare mobs more exciting to find.
Some rare spawns have bad rewards compared to difficulty
