Complete GHOUL RE Boss Guide: Locations, drops, respawn times
While GHOUL RE is very much focused on its PvP (and Perma Death PvP), the devs have been hard at work at keeping the PvE scene strong and healthy. In a recent update, GHOUL RE added Raid bosses, and we're so thrilled to take a break from all the player killing that we decided to give you this Complete GHOUL RE Boss Guide. How to spawn bosses in GHOUL RE There are two types of bosses in GHOUL RE: CCG and Ghoul Bosses (the smaller bosses) The Raid Bosses (the really tough ones) Screenshot by Destructoid You can spawn smaller bosses by accepting missions for your faction's mission board. As a Ghoul player, you can accept CCG Boss missions, and as a CCG member, you can take on Ghoul Boss missions. When you accept one of these, you'll get a yellow arrow showing you where the boss has spawned. Even though these are smaller bosses that can be soloed, we recommend you bring a friend or two along just in case. You never know if players of the opposing faction may decide to ruin your fun. Other than CCG and Ghoul Boss missions, both factions can also accept Bosses Fighting missions. These are interesting because not only do they spawn one of the opposing faction bosses but also one of your own bosses. In a sense, this is a clash between two NPC bosses where you get to tip the scales. These are arguably easier to do than regular boss missions because the bosses will be focused on each other while you'll just do damage. Again, while you can solo these, it's always safer to bring a friend or two along. Screenshot by Destructoid As for spawning Raid Bosses, you first need to have 5,000 Yen. Then you talk to the Boss Raid NPC (a girl with blonde hair near the CCG building), and get her to spawn one of the three. Once you do, you'll be teleported to a secluded area where you can fight them. You can (and absolutely should) bring as many friends as you can. Up to 7 people can tag along with you to a Raid Boss. To respawn bosses, simply accept another mission from the mission board or pay another fee to the Raid Boss NPC. GHOUL RE Raid Boss Guide Don't think you can solo these, without some serious cheese tactics (we do have a few here to share, by the way). Raid Bosses have a ton of health and lots of attacks, and they tend to hit pretty hard. Unless you know what you're doing, definitely grab a group of friends (up to 8 players can attack a Raid Boss). Eto Boss Guide in GHOUL RE Gif by Ghoul Re Trello board Eto is, arguably, the easiest of the three bosses in GHOUL RE as of writing this. Despite Eto's intimidating appearance, you can destroy it pretty easily with the right knowledge. Eto has 4 moves. Basic attack - Eto swings one of its arms to the opposite side. Easy to predict and can be parried Scream - Eto lowers and then raises its head u,p releasing a scream. You can spam the parry button to avoid most of these Slam - Eto raises both its fists and slams the ground. Can't be parried, you need to dodge this one Shards - Eto turns its back to the person it is attacking and releases shards from its back. Can be parried if you spam the parry button quickly While it might seem like a lot, once you learn all the moves above, Eto is pretty easy to kill, especially with a good team of players. Even if you aren't prepared, most will probably learn the moves during the fight, which normally lasts anywhere from 3 to 5 minutes. Tatara Boss Guide in GHOUL RE Gif by GHOUL RE Trello board Tatara is even more predictable than Eto, but it is arguably more difficult because of how much health it has. Fighting this thing for the first time was really discouraging because of how little damage we were doing, but after fighting it for a bit, this is just an easy but very tanky boss. Basic attacks - Tatara swings one of its arms at you. Super easy to parry Flame Thrower - Tatara claps its fists, its head will glow blue, and it will release a flame attack. You can parry this by spamming the parry button Barrage + Slam - Tatara claps its fists (without its head glowing), and it will start attacking the ground (the player) with both arms. All of these can be parried except the last slam attack it does at the end of the barrage, that one needs to be dodged Slam - Tatara raises both arms (and one foot?) above the ground and attacks the area in front. This needs to be dodged Nero Boss Guide in GHOUL RE Gif by GHOUL RE Trello board Nero has the fewest moves, but it does the most damage out of all other Raid bosses. Almost all of its attacks are parryable, so with enough practice, this may become one of the easiest bosses to fight. Despite this, Nero's attacks cover a wide area, so definitely be prepared to take some damage until you learn the ropes. Basic attack - Nero uses one of its tentacles to attack from one side to the other. Can be parried (Jump) Slam attack - When the battle starts, Nero will pick one of the players and jump slam into them. This can be parried. As long as none of the players get too far away from Nero, it won't do the Jump Slam again, just a regular Slam Hug attack - Nero will extend all its tentacles and slam them all into the ground in front. This can also be parried, but it's pretty tough to time Ball curl attack - Nero curls its tentacles into a ball before releasing them all at once. Can be parried, but if not, it can knock you back (definitely get back to it so you don't suffer a Jump Slam) Currently, there aren't any cheese methods for Nero. GHOUL RE Boss Loot Drops Unfortunately, most bosses in GHOUL RE have the same loot pool. Raid bosses can drop a few unique items, but for the most part, you can similar loot from all bosses. Here are all the drops you can expect Loot Type Loot Name Equipment Panda Mask, Yomo Outfit, Senior Investigator Black, Despiar Necklace, Centipede Bracelet, Leg Shackle, Bloody Cape, Armband Fragments Rinkaku, Koukaku, Ukaku, Bikaku, Kakuju (both regular and refined) Other Panda Mask, Yomo Outfit, Senior Investigator Black, Despair Necklace, Centipede Bracelet, Leg Shackle, Bloody Cape, Armband Additionally, each Raid boss has a few unique drops.
