Overview[]
Bosses are strong enemies that appear in Worlds, Dungeons and Towers.
In dungeons[]
All dungeons and towers each have their own unique final boss, which must be defeated in order to complete the level. Some may also contain mini-bosses, which are lesser bosses that usually appear in the middle of the dungeon instead of the end.
Bosses are different from normal mobs in that most of them possess the ability to use special attacks, which deal more damage than basic attacks. Some special attacks are even able to instantly kill the player. Bosses also have a 95% resistance to status effects, making the status effects deal less damage.
When defeated, bosses will glow light-blue instead of red before fading away.
In open worlds[]
Some bosses spawn during regular intervals in open worlds instead of dungeons. Unlike dungeons, players are not given a set amount of lives, so they cannot truly lose boss battles. However, the boss will disappear if the player(s) fail to defeat it before the next boss is set to spawn.
