Who are the Terraria bosses? Bosses in Terraria come in all shapes and sizes, but all of them take a little extra firepower and patience to take down.
Terraria bosses can usually be triggered by reacting with the environment, but can also be summoned using specific items relating to each boss. There are a few different boss types, like pre-hardmode bosses, hardmode bosses, and mini-bosses. Hardmode bosses will only appear in hardmode, and event bosses or mini-bosses, will trigger in certain events and situations. Hardmode bosses will only be available once you've completed the first playthrough and defeated the pre-hardmode bosses.
Defeating Terraria bosses has its benefits, from receiving items, upgrades, equipment, and materials, to also progressing the game and leveling up. Hardmode bosses are a lot, er, harder to take down than the bosses you'll encounter on your first playthrough, so you'll need to really know each bosses weak points and do some prep work before taking on these Terraria bosses. Here's everything you need to know to prepare for the boss fights.
