Boss

**Boss** is a quite general phrase used for several special types of mobs. The following boss types exist:

* Instance boss
* Outdoor boss
* Faction leaders in cities
* Depending on usage, some players may refer to all named mobs, including non-elites, as bosses, as many of these were elite in earlier stages of the game.
* Superbosses

A common characteristic for all bosses is that they have a unique name and appear only once in the game. Bosses are harder to kill than the "normal" elite mob of the same level, and almost all bosses are immune to Crowd Control, though some may be susceptible in accordance with their intended mechanics (such as Roar in Karazhan for example).

Bosses usually have their own special loot tables. Nearly all BOP rare and epic items in the game stem from boss kills.

Bosses are usually divided into three classes of difficulty:

* miniboss
* normal boss
* superboss

The normal bosses are the most common variety. Every instance features several bosses (usually 3-5 for a 5 man instance). Normal bosses typically have special abilities that require a unique set of tactics to overcome.

## Boss Fight

The culmination of PvE are the raid level boss fights. Bosses in 5-man instances can be very tough and challenging, and may cause many wipes, but the raid bosses are designed to be a **real** challenge. They may take several evenings to learn, some may appear to be impossible to kill at first. Coordination and discipline of the whole raid are required, frequently one error by the least of the raid members may immediately cause a wipe. Many boss fights consist of different phases, where raid members have to pay attention to different aspects of the fight.

There are three archetypes of boss fights:

* Tank and spank
* DPS race
* Battle for survival

### Battle for survival

The term ''Battle for survival'' generally applies to super bosses. It is extremely difficult to defeat such bosses, and there are ridiculous statistics of life and damage. For example, Fehu is a titan that constantly produces minions in the match. Some are available such as Hawth Bowserth, bullet hell, asteroid rain. Such bosses start with after 10 billion lives.
