It's not a case of just having bosses spawn with a higher rank either, as I believe there actually needs to be a unique entity created for the game to call up. In order to add this as a difficulty option they would have to go in and make new "generic" Elite Bosses for most (almost all) groups.
That's not to say I'm against it (more power to ya), just that it'd probably be a sizable a time-sink to implement, so not all that likely to happen.

Well I'm not sure thats entirely the case since the tech is already there to scale boss class mobs down to LT class which is available through the difficulty settings. So instead of a step down from Boss to LT It should be possible to Step up from Boss to EB.|

However I'll certainly accept evidence stating otherwise
. I'd just like to see players get more bang for the buck if the want the extra challenge/reward without having to hunt down specific missions through Ouro and whatnot.
