What Is It? ​

The bread-and-butter mode. Buy a ticket, pick a map, walk into the arena, choose your difficulty at the signpost, and start fighting Bosses. Kill 'em all, grab your loot, and evacuate.

Entry ​

  • BossRush Ticket (from the base merchant)

Difficulty ​

Interact with the arena signpost to pick:

  • Easy — 1 Boss/wave, limited waves. The tutorial difficulty
  • Normal — 3 Bosses/wave, limited waves. The real deal
  • Infinite Hell — See Infinite Hell mode. Unlimited waves, no escape

How It Works ​

  1. Pick difficulty → first wave spawns
  2. Kill all Bosses in the wave
  3. Loot crates drop at death locations
  4. Next wave auto-starts after 15s (or rush it via signpost if enabled in config)
  5. On-screen compass shows Boss directions (E/W/S/N)
  6. Multi-Boss waves = surrounded from all sides. Fun!

Screen suddenly going red, a supply crate falling out of the sky, or a Boss that clearly isn't part of this wave walking in? Those are timed random events, and Standard BossRush is one of the three modes that roll them. Each one is announced, runs for a set time, and cleans itself up. See the "Random Events" page.

Boss Pool ​

  • Every Boss in the game is in the pool
  • The initial order tries to move heavy hitters (Four Horsemen, Koko Koko, Dragon Descendant, Skyburner Dragon Lord) beyond the first 20 candidate positions. Short pools, too few ordinary Bosses or filtering can let them appear earlier. The Phantom Witch is not excluded
  • Use the Boss Filter to disable specific Bosses

Clear Rewards ​

  • After the last wave, the reward crate shows up as a glowing ghost crate above you, follows you down, and becomes a normal crate you can open once it lands.
  • Easy: Reward crate with 3 high-quality items
  • Normal: Reward crate with 10 high-quality items

After clearing, an evacuation point opens. Interact to return to base.

Arena Facilities ​

  • Ammo Shop — Buy ammo
  • Repair Station — Fix durability
  • Trash Can — Clean up loot crates (clear boxes or clear all)
  • Return to Spawn — Teleport back to the safe zone

  • First Steps — First clear on any difficulty
  • Easy Peasy / Getting Serious — Clear the respective difficulty
