|-|Beta JeanRBLX=
Beta Jean is one of the three failed clones of the original devs and of the three bosses that appear in boss_beta, along with Beta Port and Beta Xerroz.
===Overview===
Beta Jean consists of short, blondish spiky hair, a pair of white sunglasses, light skin, a smiling expression, and a brown horseshoe mustache. His outfit consists of a black shirt with fire patterns at the bottom along with his entire collar, a gray ring necklace, A pair of blue jeans, and white shoes. He wields a pixelated turquoise colored dagger as his primary weapon. This weapon is based on Cube Cavern daggers.
===Abilities===
Jean's base health is 1000, and his walk speed is around 21, allowing him to chase after players a bit easier. To fight off players, Jean will use one of his attacks below.
Dagger Stab - Jean will stab players with his Cube Cavern Dagger. This attack deals 32 damage upon hit and inflicts a Poison effect.
Heal - Jean will stop in place, raise his arm and heal either one of the three Devs by 20% of their maximum HP.
Dagger Airstrike - Jean jumps up into the air, and strikes down a random player with his dagger. Any players who were to be caught in the airstrike will be dealt with 45 damage, but will be ragdolled and thrown far away if they are not careful. This may risk them a life if Jean throws them off the platform.
Teleportation - Jean will immediately teleport to any corners of the map, leaving a small turquoise orb that appears for a brief second. Jean also has a chance to teleport every time he is hit.
===Trivia===
*JeanRBLX's beta avatar makes a cameo appearance in the map ffa_betaislands in which he is depicted as a chromatic statue with text under him saying "Xerroz and Port didn't want me to make this map, so I did it anyways" with his username at the bottom indicating it as a quote.
**In the Christmas update, it was temporarily changed to "help I'm frozen".
*He also appears in lobby_purgatory.
*Jean is the only Boss to fail landing on two feet during his boss transition, and instead landing on his chest. He is subsequently the last one out of the three to introduce themselves visually and he gets back up later.
*His design is based of Guy Fieri, a famous restaurateur and author.
*The reasoning behind the appearance is because of Jean ("looks cool").

|-|Beta PortABoi=
Beta PortABoi is one of the three failed clones of the original developers and bosses that players have to face during Boss beta.
===Overview===
His head is replaced with an blue egg-shaped wireframe mesh with a mountain of the same characteristics sticking on the top with a stylized sun on the to top right. He has pale skin and is seen wearing a sleeveless blue hoodie as well as what is supposed to be either black legs, or black pants.
===Abilities===
Port's moves are a tad bit faster than the default 16 walkspeed of a player. This helps him chase players easier. He has a total of 1350 health.
Uppercut - Port will do an uppercut, dealing 35 damage and ragdolling them into the direction he hits. This attack is quite dangerous as it may send them off the map, and because Port may use the attack multiple times in quick succession.
Main Article: Stomp
Stomp - Port smashes the ground, causing multiple pillars of dirt to rise out. If any player is hit by any of the pillars, 35 health points will be taken away. This attack also launches them high up into the air and will ragdoll after landing, and can risk a life if Port catches up.
Retro Sprint - Placing one arm in front of his torso, along with a purple indicator on it, Port charges at a random player. It deals 35 damage and launches anyone in his path into the air. An uppercut is usually used after this attack.
When Port reaches half HP, he will emit a fire particle, alerting players that he has entered his secondary phase, in which he will have a 35% damage increase on attacks. This can happen periodically.
===Trivia===
*Beta Port is the first boss to have an item based on one of their abilities.

|-|Beta Xerroz=
Beta Xerroz is one of the three opponents the players have to defeat to win the round. He is also one of the three failed clones with him being based on the vanilla Xerroz.
===Overview===
Beta Xerroz retains some of his current characteristics; he wears a black beret with black hair piercing out from the left side, a serious expression with pale, greenish scales on his face, bees hovering over his head, a black handkerchief, and the same styles and headphones at the same locations. His outfit consists of the same hoodie beta Port wears but colored purple along with a black torso strap attached to a duffel bag, mechanical wings with keys at the sides, black bandages on his right arm, and what appears to be black pants. He uses a stock PNG image of a pistol as his primary weapon.
===Abilities===
Xerroz will slowly walk towards players at a slower pace. Whenever a player is close enough to his large attacking radius, he will perform various attacks listed below.
Gun Fire - Xerroz will rapidly fire bullets with his gun, dealing 15 damage with the firerate of Xerroz's handgun being medium, but it will shoot much faster once Beta Xerroz reaches half health. The bullets travel at roughly 100 studs per second and can pierce through players and terrain.
Teleportation - Getting too close to Xerroz, or attempting to hit him using melee weapons will have him teleport away for the offender, usually to one of the edges of the map. This can be dangerous as he will immediately use his Gun Fire once after.
Zoner - The muzzle of Xerroz's handgun begins to pulse, and fires a large projectile. A purple crosshair will appear close to any player. The crosshair continuously spins and deals a high DoT (around 20 damage per second), and inflict anyone inside a curse effect. Multiple Crosshairs can exist at once, but they despawn after a while.
==Trivia== 
*Beta Xerroz makes an appearance in Lobby_purgatory and lobby_bakamitai.
*Beta Xerroz is one of the three possible figures to find in a Body pillow.

==Strategy==
The player can either finish off Jean first and finish off Xerroz last, due to Jean's ability to heal himself and the other beta devs. Alternatively, the player can defeat Port first so they can easily wipe the other two without Port interrupting. Either strategy is equally effective, it all depends on personal preference. The player should stay as far from Port as possible, as his moveset allows him to toss players into the air; this allows the other Beta Devs to attack, putting the player at risk of dying. If Port does get close enough to attack, one should escape his vision and jump continuously. Jean may attack users repeatedly with the same ability. During this period, the player should make use of weapons that can knock him back or weapons that increase your mobility. The player should not attack Xerroz with any melee weapon, as he will in most cases teleport at them or away from them if they attempt doing so. It is recommended to have items such as skeleton juice or cassiebucks coffee as they increase your movement speed, allowing one to out manuever the Beta Devs' attacks. It is best kill Jean first, as his ability to heal either him, Port, or Xerroz can destroy any progress one may have made. Port and Xerroz can be roadblocks in killing Jean, however, so if one has the firepower it may be better to take care of them first.
==Perfect Run Strategy==
The Beta Devs are simple to beat if you get certain "good" items, but if you do not receive these items, you're in for a world of pain. Beating them with "The Perfect Run" enabled awards you with the achievement triple threat takedown. The following is the most optimal strategy if one wishes to defeat the Beta Devs by themself.:
*Pray for night reaper, as it has a large range, 8+ speed and a double jump.
**If you are unlucky, any other speed boosts like sunshine in a bag, cassiebucks coffee, or skeleton juice will be your only chance for survival, as Jean and Port move faster than a player with base stats.
**A good ranged weapon includes, but is not limited to: chicago, blaster, kentucky and distressed red ball. lilynette is an incredibly effective weapon due to its movement and damage abilities, "Sonído" and "Cero Metralleta", respectively. If you receive a bad ranged weapon such as bottle, it may be ideal to simply reset and try again. If you receive a powerful melee weapon and a speed boost such as zaihop or cassiebucks coffee, however, you may wish to attempt to complete the run anyways.
*If night reaper has been obtained, it is advantageous to learn how to switch weapons rapidly to evade attacks and to shoot from afar.
*If you don't have night reaper, run away as far as possible. If you have masamune and a speed boost, you can run circles around Beta JeanRBLX and Beta PortABoi and they won't be able to hit you. You can also weave between attacks due to your speed.
**Try to stand perpendicular to Beta Port's Dash and Stomp attacks.
*Try to kill each Beta Dev in order.
**It's best you kill each Beta Dev from most to least threatening. The order is seen below here with their strategies:
***Kill Beta JeanRBLX first.
****Jean should be your number one priority, as he can heal himself and the other Beta Devs. This makes progress on the Beta Devs' health difficult to maintain. Additionally, Jean has the lowest amount of HP out of all the Beta Devs, which makes him a prime target.
****Move to the side if Jean begins to leap. If you do not have a mobility-boosting item, walking directly towards or away from Jean will often fail to exceed the leap's AoE. If you cannot avoid it, position yourself where you'll be knocked toward the map rather than potentially off the map.
**** Jean's primary attack has considerable windup but a deceptively large hitbox. In a similar vein as avoiding the leap, jumping and dodging sideways will evade the attack.
****Jean is the fastest of the Beta Devs at 20 walkspeed and frequently teleports, meaning he can easily evade your attacks.
***Kill Beta PortABoi.
****While Jean can be reliably fought in melee range, it is heavily advised to never attempt this against Port. His primary attack has minimal windup and cannot be dodged by simply moving to the side. At longer distances, his Retro Sprint is easy to dodge but becomes almost impossible to avoid if casted within a medium-short distance for players with no mobility boosters. The Stomp, however, is easy to dodge, as you can simply sidestep it, even at closer ranges.
****As a general rule, try to stay as far away from Port as possible, as he has a tendency to stun lock you until you die.
****Port does not teleport like the other two devs, however temporarily enters an enraged state upon dropping below half health. 
*****It should be noted that Port can do this multiple times if healed by Jean and then brought below half health again.
****Port is slower than Jean at 18 walkspeed, but possesses more health; 1350 solo, and often around 9k in full servers.
****If played well enough, you can bait Port into dashing off the map to stall time and reposition alongside gaining a great amount of distance from Port, depending on where he teleported to after falling off however. Speaking of so, it is heavily advised to automatically zoom out and check as to where Port has teleported to.
***Kill Beta Xerroz.
****Xerroz is only a threat when accompanied by the other devs and his massive health pool; 1550 solo, usually around 10k in full servers. By himself, he is easy to kite by staying at his maximum range and circling around him due to the bullets' slow speed. The zoner has a massive charge-up period and rarely makes a hit if the target is constantly moving.
****While Xerroz’s Zoner may have a long charge-up delay, the actual Zoner lasts for a decently long time and can heavily close in space between you and the Beta Devs. It is heavily advised to stay away from Port or Jean whenever you are nearby a Zoner, as Port’s charge attack or Jean’s leap attack can send you directly to the center of the Zoner and absolutely obliterate you.
****Like Jean, Xerroz will sometimes teleport. If he happens to teleport right next to you, especially during phase 2 when his fire rate is accelerated, expect to take massive damage or die entirely before being able to react and distance yourself.
