Bosses are enemies in Bloodborne who feature a larger health bar and may be defeated to consider a stage "cleared". They will usually drop unique items. Players summoned to help defeat a host's Boss will be returned to their own game world after that Boss has been cleared. Bosses listed below are currently known and more will be added when data becomes available. It isn't 100% clear if the Root Chalice Dungeons will pull Bosses at random from the game or if it has its own set of them.

To defeat the boss that looks like it has a brain for a butt you have to hit the butt that increaseingly lowers its health.your welcome.
And there is a trick with the weapons hold R1,R2,L1,and L2 then when the weapon glows let go and it will swing around.Your welcome again.

For everyone who's confused as to where the rest of the bosses are, they're listed under Great Ones, Chalice Dungeon Bosses, and DLC Bosses. You can toggle who you're looking at above the boss list.

I think the game changes certain things (enemy weaknesses, drops, item locations, etc.) based on the order that bosses are fought and insight. That may be why only certain bosses are required to be beaten to open a new area that advances the main game. But perhaps it's not that. It simply appears procedurally determined in some ways.

Took me a minute to figure out what the hell is going on here. Turns out the bosses listed as "Great Ones" are separated from the other bosses, despite there being no functional difference between the two. That's just confusing.

The Boss Checklist is super helpful, but there are a few spelling mistakes and either Cleric Beast or Blood Starved Beast is necessary to progress.

Bosses not using all of their abilities05 Jul 2016 14:55
Has anyone else seen this happen? I've had it a few times, but I'm not sure why. It doesn't seem to be a bug.

So I've needed to use the beckoning bell for almost every boss except the cleric beast, am I just a bad player? Or does it mean something else, cause I've been doing it a lot and I'm starting to think I'm just bad... am I?
