So which World Boss is your favorite? Triple Trouble isn’t on the list because it’s unique difficulty

PS: Did I miss anyone?

My picks:

Starter: Great Jungle Wurm

Schedule: Inquest Golem Mark II

Not on Schedule: Champion Drakin Cinderspire

Orr Boss: Risen Priest of Grenth

Dragon: Tequatl

Starter Zone Bosses: None; they are all boring now. Fire Elemental and SB used to be awesome.

Bosses on a schedule:

• For loot, Legendary Karka Queen
• For the event chain, Modniir Ulgoth
• For the actual fight, Megadestroyer

Bosses outside of schedule:
Champion Foulbear Chieftain (favorite fight, loot, and event chain)

Orr Bosses: Legendary Risen Priest of Melandru

Dragons: Tequatl the Sunless

Starter: Old school Shadow Behemoth

Schedule: Modniir Ulgoth

Not on Schedule: Champion Drakin Cinderspire

Orr Boss: Risen Priest of Balthazar

Dragon: The Shatterer. Might not be the most interesting fight but its the one I remember most from being a newbie many moons ago.

Great jungle wurm, Ulgoth,Lyssa, and Tequatl

Starter Zone Bosses
Best: Great Jungle Wurm (more interesting that the rest)
Worst: Fire Elemental (dies way too fast)

Bosses on a schedule
Best: Inquest Golem Mark II (barrel done gone)
Worst: Modniir Ulgoth (half his health’s gone before he starts fighting)

Bosses outside of schedule
Best: Captain Rotbeard (interesting mechanics)
Worst: Champion Foulbear Chieftain (Does he attack?)

Orr Bosses
Best: Risen Priest of Grenth (Hero Takes a Fall)
Risen Priestess of Lyssa (Daze Phase and Pink Gorillas)

Dragons
Best: The Shatterer (Nice to see new branded that can pose a threat; massive herd can still fail)
Worst: Claw of Jormag (chain fear and plateau wide ice spears are annoying)

Did you forget anyone? Cursed Shore Megalodon?

I think I should’ve done a “Worst World Boss” question too Maybe a different thread.

Behemoth (my first ever boss event – I still remember the “wow” factor")

Golem

Cinderspire (good mechanics and he can hurt you – this should be baseline diffuclty for bosses like Ulgoth who are otehrwise deeply disappointing for the build up)

Grenth (satisfying when victorious)

Jormag (Shatterer may eventually overtake and Tequatl I’m just burned out on. Undead themes bore me anyway)

I would love to see updates to Karka Queen and Ulgoth one day. They seem most pressing for attention.

My answers:

Starter Zone Bosses
Champion Svanir Shaman Chief

Bosses on a schedule
Inquest Golem Mark II

Bosses outside of schedule
Eye of Zhaitan

Orr Bosses
Statue of Dwayna

Dragons
The Shatterer

Rhendak the Crazed for the off-schedule bosses – perhaps more for the mini-dungeon than the boss.

Starter: NONE

Schedule: Ulgoth

w/o Schedule: Fire Shaman

Orr: all are good (since im a guest there nowdays)

Drake: Stinkless.

Launch Version Fire Elemental: 9,000

To be honest I’ve never fought him….

Oh yes! Those were the times! And after you killed it, you got some greens and blues for your effort…

Shadow Behemot – The coolest looking one, in terms of mechanics they are all kinda boring.

Bosses on a schedule
Inquest Golem Mark II – by far this one, the fight is just super fun for me, unless you stand at the edge and pewpewpew with skill 1.

Bosses outside of schedule
Never really done them much so won’t vote.

Orr Bosses
They are all the same for me :p

Dragons
The Shatterer
