v2.3.8 ​

From BossRush · Qinglan Archipelago Wiki

Release Date ​

  • 2026-10-24
  • This update adds a new Boss, the Eclipse Bloom, and its signature totem, the Residual Sun Shield Shard. Ordinary raids gain three optional field adventures: the Gluttonous Mimic, Awen's Odd-Parcel Delivery and Dingdang's Dangerous Prototypes. The Shadow of the Champion joins the Boss pool, and Dragon's Breath no longer deals zero damage to zombies.

New ​

  • Eclipse Bloom: a three-phase Boss. Take the introduction quest from Jeff at base, then find it near the marked area of Experimental Area 37 on a normal raid. Its four petals shield the core while intact, the fan-shaped warnings on the ground swing toward you before they lock, and staying far away calls down solar flares at your feet. After the quest, roughly 30% of raids to Area 37 meet it again, and it also joins the compatible Boss pool.
  • Residual Sun Shield Shard: a totem the Eclipse Bloom always drops. Rolling raises a 0.65-second shield in the roll direction that catches one frontal attack and reduces it by 70%; a successful block adds the same amount to your next direct hit.
  • Gluttonous Mimic: about 35% of ordinary raids run into a hungry giant chest. Feed it up to three helpings of ammo, grenades or medicine and it grows matching cannons, bomb growths or a medicine bottle, getting bigger, tougher and more rewarding. Its iron shell takes only 45% damage while its mouth is shut, so hit it when it opens up.
  • Awen's Odd-Parcel Delivery: find Awen or his dispatch box on a raid and carry a squawking Quacking Egg or a ready-to-burst Angry Soda to the signing stand. A perfect delivery pays 2400 gold, up to two parcels per raid.
  • Dingdang's Dangerous Prototypes: once Dingdang's affinity reaches level 10, accept her one-time commission at base; it completes when the conversation ends. After that, about 45% of ordinary raids spawn her prototype bench at random (marked on the map), each holding one rig: Duckback Mk.I Overdrive, Ricochet Sun Unbound, Quackrail Cannon, Thunderbill or Grand Finale. It attaches to the gun in your hands; meet the target in time for 1 Cold Quench Fluid.

Improved ​

  • Shadow of the Champion joins the Boss pool: it can appear in Standard BossRush, Infinite Hell, From Scratch and random intrusions, still behind the early-wave strong-Boss protection, and still drops the Astral Staff. Faction War, Blood Hunt, Fate Echo, the Duck Cup, the Relic Nest and Zombie Mode never draw it.
  • Zombie Mode starter loadouts: the description now makes clear that picking melee or guns at the start does not lock which weapons you can use for the rest of the run.

Fixed ​

  • Fixed Dragon's Breath dealing zero damage to zombies. Copies you already own are corrected automatically, keeping their reforges, wear and other stats.
