Description

[edit]

The Hidden Boss is a large and fast boss that appears in Casual, Legacy Molten, Intermediate, Molten, Base Arena PVP and Molten Arena PVP modes. It also appeared in The Classic Event. It has decent amount of health and decent speed. Towers must have hidden detection to target the Hidden Boss.

The Hidden Boss can be spawned from the Mystery Boss upon its death in the Easy and Legacy Molten modes.

Appearance

Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Dev:Tabber' not found.

Strategy

[edit]
  • Towers with decent DPS and hidden detection, like the Minigunner, Hunter and Crook Boss can be used to deal with it.
  • Towers like the Ace Pilot or Firework Technician can be used to grant hidden detection to towers that do not normally have it, like the Ranger, Mortar or Toxic Gunner.
  • While some splash damage towers like the Demoman and Mortar cannot target Hidden Bosses, they can hit them through splash damage, if another detectable enemy is near the Hidden Boss.
    • This is very useful for towers which have a large explosion range, such as the Mortar.
    • The Rocketeer can be effective against the Hidden Boss because of its hidden detection and high DPS.
  • You can use the Frost Blaster, Freezer and Warden to slow the Hidden Boss down.
    • While Sledger and Tesla do not have hidden detection, they can still indirectly hit the Hidden Boss if a detectable enemy is near it, though this should not be relied on as its quite inconsistent.
    • Due to the Hidden Boss's size, various forms of stalling like freeze or knockback will be less effective on it.

Trivia

[edit]
  • When the Uber Mystery was in the game, it had a chance of spawning the Hidden Boss, upon its death, in Golden and Fallen modes.
  • The current appearance of the Hidden Boss is very similar to the original version of the Shadow Boss.
  • On some devices, the Hidden Boss may have transparent skin instead of black skin, with certain graphics settings.
  • The cape used by the legacy Hidden Boss is a re-textured version of the Guardian of the Night Cape accessory from the Roblox catalog.
  • Multiple Hidden Bosses can be seen as a chess piece in the Chess Board map, representing the Bishop chess piece.
    • One of the Hidden Bosses can also be seen hanging on the chess piece.
