Boss

A boss is a special unique type of enemy in Borderlands. The main bosses are considerably tougher than most enemies and may require special strategies to defeat.

Main Bosses
These are the main bosses in the Borderlands story. Each must be fought in order to progress through the main story line. The first time a character is introduced to some of these main bosses they will be treated to a brief cutscene and a static splash page that carries a tag line about the boss.
