Boss-level Creatures
Boss Results Gump
- The Boss Results system displays how individual players and guilds performed against Boss-Level Creatures. These include:
- Players can view Boss Results by typing [BossResults in game
- Results of boss fights are added to a list that have occurred over the last 30 days
- Players can go back and forth and view previous Boss kill details by clicking the "Previous/Next" arrows at the top left of the window
Recently Slain Bosses
- For a Boss that has just been killed, players who were involved in the fight (either did damage or in the same guild as a player who did damage to the boss) must wait 5 minutes before the Boss fight data is added to the list and is viewable
- Once 60 minutes have passed since a Boss has been killed, all players (regardless of involvement in the fight) will see results of the Boss fight in their [BossResults menu
- The delay in Boss Results being added is to prevent players from simply watching the results window and "raiding" groups have just finished Bosses
Boss Scaling
- Bosses can only increase in size due to player damage at most once per IP address (i.e. a player cannot use multiple characters on their account to force multiple size increases on a Boss-type or Omni Boss)
- For every new, unique player that inflicts 1000 damage to any of our boss-level creatures, it will increase the bosses Damage Dealt by 1.0% and increase the potential loot by 0.5%
Hit Points and Scaling
The starting Hit Points for boss-types are as follows (with ocean boss-types having listed exceptions):
- Ocean Mini-Boss: 20,000 Hit Points
- Mini-Boss: 40,000 Hit Points
- Lore-Boss: 40,000 Hit Points
- Ocean Boss: 40,000 Hit Points
- Boss: 80,000 Hit Points
- Omni Boss: 750,000 Hit Points
For every new, unique player that inflicts 1000 damage to one of these boss-types, it will increase the bosses Hit Points by the following:
- Ocean Mini-Boss: +10,000 Hit Points
- Mini-Boss: +20,000 Hit Points
- Lore-Boss: +20,000 Hit Points
- Ocean Boss: +20,000 Hit Points

- Lore Boss: 10 Unique Players
- Mini-Boss: 20 Unique Players
- Boss: 40 Unique Players
- Omni-Boss: 60 Unique Players
Boss Loot Skull Tokens
- All boss loot drops as Skull Tokens
- Upon moving the Skull Token anywhere other than the boss corpse, it will transform into its actual loot item
- "Normal" looting rights apply
Loot Increasing
- High volume items like Gold, Reagents, Arrows, etc, will increase by a flat amount of 0.5% per player
- "Guaranteed" drop items such as Aspect Cores, each player involved will have a 0.5% chance to cause that loot item to drop a second time for each that normally drops
- "Rare" drops that have drop chances, each player involved adjusts the loot drop chance by 0.5% of the normal amount
Boss Creature Carving
- Mini Bosses, Shrine Bosses, Omni-Bosses, and Event Bosses now have a uniform "Difficulty" level, when player carve their corpses, that is used to determine amount of Meat, Leather, and other resources that appear on the corpse
- Mini Boss Difficulty value for carving is 1000
- Shrine Boss Difficulty value for carving is 1500
- Boss Difficulty value for carving is 2000
- Omni Boss Difficulty value for carving is 5000

Boss Barding: Provocation and Peacemaking
- Provocation and Peacemaking on Bosses (including Lore Bosses, Mini-Bosses, Bosses, Shrine-Bosses, Omni-Bosses, and Event Bosses) will no longer function as normal, and instead will apply a “Boss Barding” effect to the creature
- A Boss Barding Effect reduces their Melee Attack Speed by 25%, increases Spellcast Cooldowns by 25%, and increases Ability Cooldowns by 25%
- Boss Barding Effects have a similar duration to normal barding effects and also utilize the same Barding Cooldown mechanics and lengths as before
- A Boss with a Boss Barding effect in place will have “*Barded*” displayed above their name when single-clicking on them
