Bosses

Every dungeon has one named unique living at the bottom of it, and it will not come out on its own. You summon it by farming that dungeon until its gold bar fills, you fight it alone, and you get one kill a week. It is the only fight in the game you can lose permanently — read the warning below before you ring the bell.

☠️

There is no corpse run. If you die here, your gear is gone. Lose any other fight and your things scatter into a lootable pile you can walk back to. A boss does not leave a pile. Everything you were carrying and wearing is destroyed outright — not dropped, not recoverable, not sitting somewhere waiting to decay. Blessed items survive, and your mount dies with you as it always does. Bank anything you would grieve over, and go in wearing gear you can afford to never see again.

Summoning one

Weekly

Every coin you loot inside a dungeon feeds that dungeon's own boss bar — including gold from a Dungeon Boon, a Potion of Power, a Paragon kill or a gold-finding pet, and including everything your character farmed while you were offline. Fill the bar and the game tells you the moment it is ready; the summon button lives on the dungeon's own screen.

Each dungeon's bar is separate, and the cost is the boss's own — see the roster below.

Rule	What it means
Alone	You cannot summon while in a party. This one is yours to face.
No Auto Battle	Turn it off first. A boss fights you through the normal combat window.
One kill a week	Beat it and that boss is locked to you until the weekly reset — Friday, noon GMT. Other dungeons' bosses are unaffected.
The bar resets weekly too	Gold farmed toward a boss expires at that same Friday boundary, so a bar cannot be banked across weeks and cashed in the instant one lands.

If you lose

Permanent

Your unblessed items are destroyed, as above. Beyond that, losing costs you the bar but not the week:

	Your items	The gold bar	This week's kill
You win	Kept, plus the drops	Emptied	Spent — locked out until Friday noon GMT
You lose	Destroyed	Emptied	Still yours — refill the bar and try again the same week

So a defeat is not the end of your week. The boss does not walk away locked; it walks away having taken your gear and your progress, and you are free to farm the bar back up and go again as many times as you can stomach.

How they fight

Combat

A boss swings and lands like its own dungeon's monsters — it is simply far tankier and hits far harder. On top of that it has a signature ability that fires roughly every 10 seconds, independent of its swing rhythm, and every boss shares one nasty habit:

🔥

They all enrage. Drop any boss below 30% health and its damage jumps by 50% for the rest of the fight. The last third is always the dangerous third — plan your healing around finishing, not around starting.

What they drop

Rewards

A boss pays no gold — you already farmed that to summon it. What it leaves instead, every boss, every kill:

Drop	Details
A weapon	Guaranteed, always magical to some degree, and occasionally the dungeon's own Slayer variant. It arrives unidentified unless you have the skill or the Virtue talent to read it on sight.
Leather	A large guaranteed haul skinned from the corpse, often upgraded to a better grade than the dungeon would normally give. Trains Camping.
Skill scrolls	One or two, of any skill.
Virtue Binding XP	A large flat grant — the deeper the boss, the bigger.
Special Loot	The rare stuff — rings, cloaks, the carried craft charms. A boss rolls for it several times over, and deeper bosses roll more often.
Its trophy	The one drop nobody else has. A house placeable unique to that boss, listed on its card below. You want exactly one; a second is worth nothing.
