    Hi All
    Please can we all pool our boss ideas under one thread so we can get a Idea catalogue.

    Thanks guys.

    My Boss proposal:

    I'm no artist so I will leave you to imagine it but the Idea I would like to propose is a random occurrence boss that is a Ore Golem (The better the ore the tougher the Golem) and the way I imagine it to work is in this scenario:

    A explorer digging away in the dirt for Ore comes across a huge vein of Iron, Excited by the find he starts to chip away at the mass with haste until.
    A huge explosion of dirt and ore blast forth from the centre of the iron revealing the furious Golem beneath, His eyes glow with the intent to kill and he advances on the explorer (eyes could be any random gemstones which could be in the Golem drop table).

    I figure if you find a Golem deep in the ground where you cant fight there could be a special animation where he grabs the player and jumps through the dirt to the surface to do battle, leaving a gaping pit in the jumps wake.

    Thanks for reading my suggestion I look forward to your feedback or even expansion on the idea.

    What about a common materials golem ? it can spawn when there is a statistical disorder in material repatition : many lava in high altitude, or many clay in deep underground, or many glasses anywhere... and to avoid bulding hell : each wall til cancel 2 blocks tils in common material golem spawning algothm. So if you build a big mono material construction without wall, you will probably spawn a golem. If you add wall, your building is safe from boss spawn.

    As a boss loot, why not an infinite material spawner (with wall spawning in right click) who spawn the boss material (for a dirt golem, you will have a dirt spawner, for ice golem, an ice spawner, fore glasses golem...)

    Another idea :

    A treant boss.
    you spawn it by cutting many (perhaps 100) tree in only one day wthout plant seed.

    I see 3 step for this boss :
    Step one : a slow giant tree with big damage, and area slow and stunt with special attack. vulnerability to fire and no range attack for this step.

    Step two : 5, or 10 medium tree with shared HP (you can't kill them one by one). There are faster than there father (step one) and each of there shot slow you cumulativly for 5sec.

    Step 3 : 25 to 50 small tree with individual medium to low HP but very high regen (you shoud be able to kill one with 3 ou 5 shot depending of your stuff but each tree regen to full life after 3sec.

    Special loot (you can't find it an other way) : some special seeds to create a special mini-biome with fast automatic tree spawning (like terraria jungle seed but with fast tree spawn)

    I see 2 solutions for these special seed :
    - the auto spawned tree design depend of the planet style where you have sticked the special seed
    - the auto spawned tree design depend of the planet style where you have fighted the treant boss (so you can fight this boss on many planete to collect seeds of each tree style and stick them in the same area to make an exotic greenhouse with various tree styles in the same screen.

    those are cool bosses.

    what about a "binary" boss that shoots 0s and slashes with 1s and looks like one of the matrix characters?

    "On his shell he holds the Earth."
    "His thought is slow, but always kind."
    "He holds us all within his mind."

    "On his back all vows are made;"
    "He sees the truth but mayn't aid."
    "He loves the land and loves the sea,"
    "And even loves a child like me."

    It would be cool if you could go onto the disk world as a really rare biome where you can fight death :rofl: but yeah I love this idea.
