Bosses are powerful creatures that serve as major PvM challenges. They start with 200,000 Hit Points, though their health can increase through scaling mechanics. Bosses cannot be tracked within dungeons, but players can still receive tracking-related damage bonuses against them.
Bosses naturally respawn between 24 to 48 hours. Additionally, they can be summoned through the [dungeons gump or via the Dungeons tab in the [guild gump.

Boss Custodians
Each Boss Room (excluding Mini-Boss areas) contains a Custodian that patrols the room when the Boss is not present. If a Boss spawns, the Custodian will disappear.
Custodians periodically scan the area for hidden players and tamed creatures. Any detected players or pets will be revealed, a Fire Field will be placed on them, and they will be prevented from hiding again for 10 seconds. Custodians may also attack revealed targets.
Contested Bosses
At times, naturally spawned bosses will be Contested, triggering a hostile event where all players in the boss room are flagged as gray to one another.
- While a Contested Boss is active, players cannot cast Field Spells such as Wall of Stone, Energy Field, or Poison Field inside the boss room.
- Players who leave a Contested Boss room will be flagged as orange to each other for 2 minutes.
- A Contested Boss is marked by blue flames on the braziers outside the Boss Room, signaling that it is a gray zone.
- Once the Contested Boss is defeated, the blue flames will extinguish.
More Details
Damage Entries Expiration Duration: 40 minutes – This determines when a player's damage progress towards a creature will reset. Expired damage does not count toward loot rights, Aspect XP, Achievements, or Society progress.
Bosses do not have mandatory cooldowns for Barding Effects. Multiple players can apply the same effect on a boss simultaneously, though only the highest raw skill Discordance effect will take precedence.
The Boss Barding Break effect increases a Boss's ability cooldowns by 33%, replacing normal Provocation or Peacemaking effects.
Discordance effects on bosses suffer effect scaling reductions:
- 50% reduced effectiveness on Mini-Bosses.
- 40% reduced effectiveness on Bosses, including Omni Bosses.
Boss Results Gump
The Boss Results system tracks player and guild performance against Boss-Level creatures, including:
Players can access Boss Results by typing [BossResults in-game. Results from fights remain available for 30 days. Players can navigate previous fights using the Previous/Next buttons.
Recently Slain Bosses
When a Boss is killed, only players who participated in the fight (or are in the same guild as a participant) can view the fight details for the first 5 minutes. After 60 minutes, results become available to all players.
This delay prevents outside players from monitoring the results window to immediately raid groups that have just completed a boss fight.
Boss Scaling
Bosses scale based on the number of unique players dealing damage. Each unique player who inflicts at least 1,000 damage increases the Boss’s:
- Damage Dealt by 0.5%
- Potential Loot by 0.5%
- Chance to spawn additional minions by 1% per player
Hit Points and Scaling
Bosses start with the following hit points (with some exceptions for Ocean Bosses):
| Boss Type | Starting HP |
|---|---|
| Ocean Mini-Boss | 100,000 |
| Mini-Boss | 100,000 |
| Lore-Boss | 75,000 |
| Ocean Boss | 200,000 |
| Boss | 200,000 |
| Omni Boss | 1,500,000 |
For every new, unique player dealing 1,000 damage, the boss’s hit points increase as follows:
| Boss Type | Increased HP per Player |
|---|---|
| Ocean Mini-Boss | +40,000 |
| Mini-Boss | +40,000 |
| Lore-Boss | +40,000 |
| Ocean Boss | +80,000 |
| Boss | +80,000 |
| Omni Boss | +500,000 |
Maximum Scaling
There is a cap on how many players can contribute to boss scaling:
| Boss Type | Max Player Scaling |
|---|---|
| Lore-Boss | 10 |
| Mini-Boss | 20 |
| Boss | 30 |
| Omni Boss | 40 |
Boss Loot Skull Tokens
All Boss loot initially drops as Skull Tokens. When a player moves a Skull Token out of the boss corpse, it transforms into its actual loot item. Normal looting rights apply.
Loot Increasing
Boss loot increases based on the number of unique players:
- High-volume items like Gold, Reagents, and Arrows increase by 0.5% per player.
- Guaranteed drop items (e.g., Aspect Cores) have a 0.5% chance per player to duplicate.
- Rare drops see their drop chance increased by 0.5% per player.
Boss Creature Carving
Boss-type creatures yield additional resources when carved. Different boss types have different values:
| Boss Type | Carving Yield |
|---|---|
| Mini-Boss | 1,000 |
| Shrine Boss | 1,500 |
| Boss | 2,000 |
| Omni Boss | 5,000 |
| Event Boss | 10,000 |
Boss Barding: Provocation and Peacemaking
Applying Provocation or Peacemaking on a Boss (including Lore Bosses, Mini-Bosses, Shrine Bosses, Omni-Bosses, and Event Bosses) triggers the Boss Barding Effect. This effect:
- Reduces Melee Attack Speed by 25%
- Increases Spellcast Cooldowns by 25%
- Increases Ability Cooldowns by 33%
A *Barded* message will appear above the boss’s name when affected.
Boss-type creatures have no cooldown restrictions on multiple Barding effects, though stacking Discordance effects do not stack—only the highest Discordance effect applies.
Boss Creature Hindering
Bosses have a chance to ignore movement-restricting abilities. Instead of being hindered, the player receives a damage bonus:
| Boss Type | Chance to Ignore Hinder |
|---|---|
| Lore Boss | 70% |
| Mini Boss | 75% |
| Boss | 80% |
| Shrine Boss | 85% |
| Omni Boss | 90% |
| Event Boss | 95% |
