Should baron inflict grievous wounds?

I have no idea if this has been suggested before, but here goes anyways.

A select few champions have the ability to solo the baron at some point in the game , or maybe to name a few. It seems they just out-lifesteal the baron before he can kill them. I feel like baron shouldn't be something that a single champion can solo, let alone chunked down before he kills the player. I think he's made to be this epic beast that requires a team to take down (quote riot if they said otherwise).

Adding grievous wounds to his attacks would stop those fed players from soloing him, while hopefully not impacting a proper baron hunt.

Will this make him too hard to kill? I have no idea. I have not taken the details into consideration, I'm just throwing an idea out there.

I thought baron was supposed to be a "Team objective", having a xin/yi on the enemy team is pretty BS because you have to watch for where the jungler is at all times or it may just end up being taken

This should be done only if less than 3 people are fighting Baron. Having Baron being soloed just isn't fun at all, it should be a team objective.

I see no need for Baron to be changed seeing that until very late game it does in fact require the whole team to kill him and that's only if the enemy team is mostly if not all, down at the time being. This gives the team a short amount of time to fight the boss. If you were to change anything about Baron it would definitely not be damage, but it would be health. I enjoy being able to solo Baron if I get a proper build, maybe a slight increase in damage as well as health will do to help counter the solo'ing part so that people can come in to attack a weakened jungler for trying to do something by himself. Other than that it's pretty fine as is.

I disagree. It is a strategy sometimes for one or two people to take baron if they can sneak it without losing anything...why should that be hindered when that is a huge risk/reward play
