Bosses

Bosses are a much stronger variant of the Enemies. They have high health, high damage, and many attacks. They are also partly resistant to Status Effects: for example, negative effects inflicted on them expire 20% faster than normal.

There are currently eight bosses in the game: the Concierge, Conjunctivius, Mama Tick, the Time Keeper, the Giant, the Scarecrow, the Hand of the King, and a 5 BSC exclusive boss.
