In my mind, the abilities are decided upon entering the instance. Once set, they are what they are for the entire encounter.

And yes, these abilities are the major abilities of that encounter. This way, like valiant said, you can never just go watch the how the top guilds beat the encounter on youtube. You may learn how to deal with the different abilities themselves, for example jousting on fire breath, but you won't know if fire breath is actually going to be used until it is.
