Contractual Boss Immunity	comment	The top-level bosses in a game will be immune to the player's most effective or strongest attacks. Any magician, fighter, or hero with powers, abilities, or weapons that enable them to cut through mooks like butter will rarely be able to use these skills on The Dragon or the Big Bad. In Video Games these enemies will be flat out immune to these attacks, or in the case of a first person shooter be able to take head-shots and keep on ticking, while (annoyingly) players have no such protection from their instant-death attacks. Where's the justice? The reason programmers and authors do this is for game balance and narrative issues. Where's the big climactic and fun battle if the hero instantly lops off the enemy's head? A hero who can send the Big Bad into the Phantom Zone, turn them to stone, cleave them limb from limb, or otherwise kill/disable them in less than a heartbeat skirts dangerously close to an Invincible Hero. However, this immunity can lead to a number of problems for players. It can cause Gameplay and Story Segregation or break Willing Suspension of Disbelief ("why is the Exploding Heart Technique incapable of harming this one guy?"). It can also lead to them wasting their resources if they put a lot of their XP into powering up these abilities; what's the point of using an expensive, powerful attack when it only works on enemies you can defeat with a weak, easy-to-obtain move? Boss immunity is often what puts the "useless" in Useless Useful Spell. Furthermore, bosses are typically used as a culmination of challenge to test the skills the player has used up to this point, so not allowing them to use said skill can feel frustrating for how at-odds it is to the rest of the game. As always, Tropes Are Tools, and averting this trope can make for a different and entertaining atmosphere. Maybe doing the Exploding Heart Technique on the Final Boss will make them too easy, but with the right circumstances (making it hard to obtain, giving players limited uses of it that they must spend very wisely, or giving it a really cool animation), it'll be so awesome, players won't mind that it's just an instant-win button since it'll feel cathartic. Some games employ a downplayed version of this trope, most of which have to do with expanding the options available to the player and the underlying systems which make them work, watering down the effects of these potent attacks instead of outright making them useless. One example is that, instead of instantly killing the boss, the Exploding Heart Technique does massive amount of armor-piercing damage when successfully applied while the boss is made vulnerable. Another is that, instead of being unable to inflict poison on a boss, it requires multiple casts of a poison spell (instead of the usual one on mooks). The Monster Hunter series loves this version, but even it has instances which play the trope straight. Unrelated to Joker Immunity. Compare SNK Boss, which is a type of Boss for Fighting Games that really breaks the rules. Contrast Boss-Altering Consequence, which may allow the player to One-Hit Kill a boss depending on the objectives they fulfilled.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_102b7173	comment	inFAMOUS: The final boss has this in spades. On easy mode all your attacks work, and he can be beaten quickly, and on normal mode your strongest doesn't work, but he can still be killed easily. On the Nintendo Hard mode? At least one of your skills will be below maximum level (assuming you chose an option to get a ton of XP), and all but your NORMAL ZAP and one (relatively weak) evil move work on him. Considering the sheer number of ways he can one-hit you if you're at less than full health? Painful fight to say the least. Can take over an hour, not counting the inevitable dozens of retries.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_10d303a2	comment	In Shin Megami Tensei IV, the game offers a variety of conversation skills that allow you to make demons do things like give you items, healing, or money. All of them will, surprisingly enough, work on most bosses... except two particular skills, Scout (recruits an enemy demon) and Negotiate (makes enemy demons go away), because if they weren't, you could trivially end boss battles by bribing them until they agree to join you (although you can fuse most boss demons that you've defeated) or leave. Notably, one particular boss can be put to sleep, and while Sleep status guarantees that non-bosses will let you leave if you use Negotiate on them, this boss will somehow prevent you from escaping battle through this skill even after putting him to sleep.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_1af341a1	comment	Disgaea has the Evility "Like a Boss", which nullifies Deathblows, prevents capture and greatly weakens the effects of certain status ailments. It usually has a cost of zero Evility slots, so boss-units tend to have it slapped on. Later entries would further this by having the "Like a Boss" Evility have levels. The Level 4 version not only grants the previous immunities, but also complete immunity to poison, paralysis, and weaken. Many bosses would have the "Can't Fool Me" Evility too, which nullifies the ability to lift the boss (outright killing a common cheese strat in previous Disgaea games), and it also removes all possible damage from all sources except being attacked. Bosses also tend to have the "Theft Prevention" Evility as well, which nullifies your ability to steal their equipment mid-fight (thus weakening the boss). Other Evilities commonly popped onto bosses include "Can't Fool Me" (negate evasion buffs), "Three Laws" (cannot hit own allies with attacks), "Status Guard" (debuffs can only reduce stats by 25% max and no more), "Absolute Power" (negates lifting and knockback, and stats cannot drop by more than 5% from debuffs), and "Double Lock" (always hits guaranteed when attacking with the same attack as last time).

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_1c1ceec7	comment	Monster Hunter: Elder Dragons cannot be captured and thus are completely immune to traps. Even if the Elder Dragon is weak to electricity and can be paralyzed, it will walk right through a shock trap like it doesn't exist. Several large monsters are unable to be captured for various reasons and is forced to be slain by the hunter. Vespoid Queen from the Freedom never touches the ground, rendering them immune to both Shock and Pitfall traps. Wind Serpent Ibushi, Thunder Serpent Narwa, and Narwa the Allmother from Rise also never touch the ground, so even if they weren't Elder Dragons they won't trigger traps. Both Abyssal Lagiacrus and Raging Brachydios are unable to be captured due to being unable to set traps in the habitats they reside. Additionally in Iceborne the latter upon trapping the hunter, prevents the usage of any traps, forcing the hunter into a Duel to the Death. The giant Kulu Ya-Ku in World that is encountered during the Final Fantasy XIV collaboration is immune to any stunning effects including traps. The Final Boss of Monster Hunter: World cannot be mounted, presumably due to its sheer size. Apex monsters in Rise, Ibushi and Narwa also cannot be mounted. While Narwa the Allmother cannot be mounted, a monster that can be mounted shows up partway through the fight, enabling you to use Wyvern Riding against her that way. All of the multiplayer-based monsters along with Xeno'Jiiva can't be forcefully turned nor be flinch shot into the wall to stun them for several seconds using the Clutch Claw from Iceborne. Shara Ishvalda, while not immune to it, resist the flinch shot effect unless it's sent into falling boulders.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_2192aeb3	comment	In the Fire Emblem series: Several games in the franchise have one boss who possesses an item or skill that nullifies effective damage against them: Michalis, Narcian, Valter, Walhart, Hinoka, Gwendal, Ladislava, Edelgard, Claude, Lord Arundel, Dedue, Ingrid, Seteth, Gilbert, Nader, Rodrigue, and the Immovable. Several of them allow you to either steal the item or simply pry it off of their corpses. In addition, in Awakening, Walhart's Conquest skill is also wielded by SpotPass Zephiel and DLC Ephraim, and Walhart himself comes with it when he joins you and can pass it along to Morgan if he is his father. Meanwhile, Three Houses allows any unit who achieves S+ rank in armor, flying, or riding to gain immunity to effective damage as an equippable skill. Assassins, in the games that have the class, can randomly kill their opponent instantly, even if the attack would otherwise have dealt 0 damage. In Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade and Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, everything but the final boss is fair game to be assassinated (albeit with the rates halved), but as of Path of Radiance, all enemies classified as bosses have contracted the immunity. Lloyd/Linus in Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade and Caellach in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones have the Iron Rune and Hoplon Guard, respectively, which nullify critical hits. Fortunately, you can steal these or pry them out of their cold dead hands. Another form of a boss immunity in the GBA Fire Emblem games is that thrones always cures status conditions of whatever unit is in it, usually being a boss on a Throne in a seize chapter (primarily (in addition to the great amount of evasion and a significant defense and resistance boost.) The final four bosses in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn all come equipped with either the Nihil or Mantle skills, which prevents attacking units from using their own skills against the boss (and in Mantle's case, Critical Hits). This is mainly to prevent them from being quickly dispatched by the Mastery Skills, many of which can reach ridiculous amounts of damage when used by a high-level character with an SS weapon. The majority of other bosses are still vulnerable to them, however, and the player even gets a few Nihil scrolls of their own. Fire Emblem: Awakening and Fire Emblem Fates have the Dragonskin skill, used by all four final bosses between the two games, Validar on Hard and above and Apotheosis enemies in Awakening, and Gunter in Fates: Revelation. In addition to cutting your attack power in half, it nullifies Counter and Lethality (in both games) and Countermagic and poison skills (in Fates). It also weakens critical hits and offensive skills in Fates. Fates also has a weaker variant called Divine Shield, wielded by a couple of generic DLC bosses; it does mostly the same thing as Dragonskin, but affords no protection against critical hits and offensive skills. Fates and Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia have the Immune Status and Nullify Ailments skills, respectively, which render the bearer immune to status effects in both games and stat reduction effects and poison skills in Fates. It is wielded by Gunter and Anankos in Fates: Revelation and by Jedah, Duma, the Creation, Mila's Servant, and Duma's Apostle in Shadows of Valentia. Fates also has a weaker variant called Resist Status, which merely halves those effects and is wielded by Ryoma in his final battle with you on the Conquest route. In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, major enemy bosses have either the General skill (immune to instant death effects and half damage from enemy gambits) or the Commander skill (immune to instant death, movement effects, and status ailments, and 1/4 damage from enemy gambits). Major magic-wielding bosses also tend to have Unsealable Magic, which renders them immune to Silence. In Fire Emblem Engage, on Maddening difficulty, bosses tend to have either the Unbreakable skill (immune to break) or the Veteran+ skill (immune to break and nullifies effective damage), the former on bosses without a type weakness and the later with at least one weakness. Hard difficulty downplays this, as bosses in this difficulty with weakness will have the Stalwart skill, which reduces damage effectiveness from 3x might to 2x might (however, they are still vulnerable to being broken by weapon triangle advantage).

Against bosses and overworld minibosses, however, they are effectively reskinned bomb arrows: they do a fair amount of damage, but nothing mind-blowing. They also aren't a guaranteed kill against Guardians: they can kill a Guardian in one shot, but you have to hit the Guardian directly in its eye for that to work, otherwise it will just do some basic damage. Lynels are completely immune to all elemental effects. They cannot be burned, frozen, or electrocuted. Even explosive arrows will do little more than stun them, and even then only if you actually hit them directly in the face. They can still be one-shotted by the One-Hit Kill Ancient Arrows, but doing this means you won't get any of their extremely valuable item drops.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_2d644371	comment	Most bosses in the Tales Series are vulnerable to a few status ailments, but can't be hit with instant death in the games that have it. Tales of Symphonia has All-Divides, items which cut the damage taken by both allies and enemies in half. It slows the fight down, but effectively doubles the power of all healing spells and turns even the most difficult battle into an easy (if long) one. Even That One Boss isn't immune. The Playstation remake would make Abyssian, the hardest boss in the game, immune to them. Richter from Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World has an unusually specific case of this, as any attempts to hit him with Emil's Ain Soph Aur mystic arte will simply result in a No-Sell and him countering with his own Eternal Recurrence mystic arte. Same goes for Asch cancelling and countering Luke's Radiant Howl with his own Rending Saber mystic arte in Tales of the Abyss. You could still pull it off though launching it while Asch is airborne as a result of a nice combo. The Fodra Queen from Tales of Graces f is vulnerable to almost every status ailment in the book while in her ranged attack mode. It doesn't stop her from being insanely difficult, however. On the other hand, there's the Rockgagong, who's immune to time stopping effects and can't be hit with blast calibers; two immunities no other bosses in the game possess. However, it is vulnerable to artes with the "Chance of One-Hit Kill" property, though it requires you be at level 200. In Tales of Xillia 2 virtually every boss being susceptible to everything in the book save for instant death, though the duration tends to be shorter and in the case of damaging effects, they generally deal very little damage compared to normal enemies (Though there are notable exceptions). This includes even the Petrify status (Formerly available only to enemies), which makes them completely incapable of acting for a few seconds and with the right setup, you can lock them down almost indefinitely with it.

The Wizard of Yendor is similar as, after you have stolen a McGuffin from him, he will constantly revive no matter how many times he is killed and will make the remainder of your game miserable.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_2e9ef429	comment	From the Batman: Arkham Series: Typical combat moves won't work on most bosses, but this tends to be justified given the nature of said bosses. If the battle is a fist fight, you can bet the Instant Takedown and Disarm and Destroy moves won't work on them. As for ones with other types of boss immunity: Batman: Arkham City: The boss of the Catwoman DLC is Two Face, who is fought in a Predator Encounter. He is immune to all types of takedowns, and has a health bar instead. An endless supply of Mooks will come into the room to replenish the ones you defeat, forcing you to pick them off, attack Two Face, and then retreat before his men (alerted by you attacking him) can kill you. Rinse, repeat. The Harley Quinn's Revenge DLC from the same game does the same thing, this time with Harley Quinn. Batman: Arkham Origins follows suit with Deadshot, with the added complication that the Disrupter won't work on his guns. Fortunately, it does still work on the guns of any Mooks in the room. Batman: Arkham Knight in turn, has this for the Predator battle with the titular Arkham Knight. He cannot be harmed by any takedown, and the disrupter won't work. You have to defeat or bypass any guards, sentry guns, or drones in the room. Fortunately while they come in stages, they aren't limitless. However, since this happens after you learn his identity (Jason Todd), you don't actually fight him. Instead,you instead get close enough to grapple up to his sniper perch, triggering a conversation. The conversation lowers his health bar, symbollically reflecting you destroying his will to fight.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_2f203125	comment	Shin Megami Tensei is unusual for a JRPG in that only bosses are outright immune to instant kills and incapacitating spells. All other enemies will be vulnerable to at least some of them, and in a good number of cases outright weak, translating to "one cast, one kill" against those types of enemies. As far as general gameplay is concerned, instakills are definitely NOT Useless Useful Spells (Being MegaTen, simply "attack"ing a random counter is a good way to die). Also, stat debuffs definitely do work on bosses (and are seriously necessary in most cases). The first Shin Megami Tensei I game shows why this trope is in effect: bosses did not have blanket immunity to many status effects, so many otherwise difficult boss fights could be instantly trivialized by having your human party members open fire on the boss with Charm Bullets loaded in their guns. The bosses would then start beating on themselves. Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne contains 5 elements for inflicting aliments (mind, nerve, death, expel and curse). All but 2 bosses (Forneus, who comes before the first instant death spell and Troll, who is weak enough to be a miniboss at most) are immune to death/expel and all but a handful of early bosses null or strongly resist the other 3. Most of the instant kill effects do work well on various flunkies however. In Persona 3 and Persona 4, instant kill spells return as Light and Dark magic. Some enemies can block either or both elements, but every boss is immune. This hits no-one harder than poor Naoto in Persona 4. Naoto specialises in Light, Dark and Almighty magic, which is great for mowing down large numbers of Mooks but utterly useless in boss fights. Persona 5 has series of damaging Light and Dark spells in addition to Hama and Mudo, so bosses no longer necessarily nullify Light and Dark, but the One-Hit Kill skills will just refuse to work. Persona 3 does offer a highly entertaining exception though; the October full moon bosses can be, with some luck, locked into the "fear" status. If you happen to have "Ghastly Wail" — a skill that's guaranteed to kill anything inflicted with fear, you can trivialize this boss. In Persona 4, Chie's Follow Up attacknote Follow Up attacks have a chance to be performed whenever an enemy is knocked down, Galactic Punt, insta-kills a random normal enemy. When done against a boss, it becomes Galaxy Kick which simply deals a large amount of damage. Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth like the above has bosses immune to instant death but they can still be hit by most other status ailments. One really notable one is being hit with Panic which makes them unable to dodge, do anything other than basic attacks, and frequently target themselves. Binds can also lock up whatever the boss specializes in such as physical or magical attacks. While bosses tend to break out of these statuses quickly, they're also vulnerable to Stagnant Air which makes ailments last much longer. The day 7 boss in Devil Survivor 2, Benetnasch, has a passive "Pacify Human". What this means is that your human player characters will not be able to scratch him, period, although your demon mons are not under such constraint. Persona 2: Innocent Sin offers the fusion spell Armageddon, which kills anything including the final boss... except for the Superboss. Try it out on him, and he'll smack you back with it. You have to grind like mad to get it, since you need both Lucifer and Satan personas to cast Armageddon and they're far higher level than you'd get just playing the game normally. In Shin Megami Tensei IV, the game offers a variety of conversation skills that allow you to make demons do things like give you items, healing, or money. All of them will, surprisingly enough, work on most bosses... except two particular skills, Scout (recruits an enemy demon) and Negotiate (makes enemy demons go away), because if they weren't, you could trivially end boss battles by bribing them until they agree to join you (although you can fuse most boss demons that you've defeated) or leave. Notably, one particular boss can be put to sleep, and while Sleep status guarantees that non-bosses will let you leave if you use Negotiate on them, this boss will somehow prevent you from escaping battle through this skill even after putting him to sleep. Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse turns Light and Dark spells into standard-damage spells, with their One-Hit Kill properties only kicking in if the caster has Smirk status. While this does mean you can no longer insta-nuke mobs willy-nilly just by spamming Mahamaon and Mamudoon, this also means you can actually damage bosses with Light and Dark spells, and in fact some bosses are weak to either element. They're still immune to the Smirk instant-kill effect, however. Shin Megami Tensei V has most bosses be resistant to all statuses, but not immune to them, so you can land them if you spam them repeatedly, and can even get a guaranteed success if you use your Limit Break on it. The instant-death effects of Light and Dark spells still don't work on bosses even if they're otherwise weak to them, though; they're still good for damage, just like the game before. On a side note, Abscess demons cannot be negotiated with regardless of lunar phase, requiring you to kill them, and they have the same boss immunity to instant death even if their species shows up later.

However, all standard bosses now recover from status ailments much quicker then normal enemies do, and are immune to things that cause a One-Hit Kill. Some of the later group boss fights also have the Prevention team skill, which makes it so you can only inflict one of them with a particular status ailment at any time. Lastly, the legendary Pokemon bosses are completely immune to all status ailments and also aren't affected by Endeavor (As reducing their 1K+ HP count to equal your generally 100ish HP would make things too easy).

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_318fe3d2	comment	Played with in Etrian Odyssey: status effects besides instant death are only moderately less likely to work on FOEs and bosses than mooks, and are useful for doing things like wasting their turns, doing damage over time, or preventing them from using their most powerful attacks. However, status effects only last a few turns, and successfully applying one to a unit makes the unit more resistant to that status for about eight turns — applying the same effect twice is considerably harder than doing it once and it gets successively harder. In Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan, the Arcanist has a spell that resets this resistance; it costs an extremely large amount of TP, but may still be worth it against particularly tough enemies. There are oddballs in many of the bosses that stand out: Manticore in the original is only vulnerable to brute force, being immune to ailments and binds. The Fallen One of IV resists instant death, but is not immune to it, meaning a lucky instant death attack will end the fight instantly.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_3565350a	comment	In Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, bosses and some leaders of enemy armies usually have ribbons marked by their names. Said ribbons make them immune to the laws that are constantly hounding your own characters (and any enemies without ribbons by their names). Characters who break the laws badly enough are carted off to jail — a "mission failed" scenario if it happens to main character Marche — and enemies without ribbons will never deliberately break the laws. But thanks to the ribbons, bosses can (and will) do anything they want without penalty. although it should be noted that in this game and its sequel enemies can have either the normal ribbon accessory, immunity to all status effects as an equipped item, or in some cases have the "Immunity" passive which does the same thing but in a skill slot. Thankfully the player can get ribbons for their own team un each game although Immunity the passive skill is this trope incarnate.

Some of these are understandable, with one-hit kill moves and moves that change the boss's core ability, but others are banned just because it would make the fight "too easy", like the use of Leech Seed, a move that slowly drains the boss's health over time, or Haze, a move that would clear all stat changes on the field. It also weakens toxic poisoning into regular poisoning, makes it so paralysis never prevents a boss from moving, and causes boss Pokemon to unfreeze immediately. Frustratingly, these status changes are never voiced to the player, not even through a message similar to what's received when the player tries to use a banned move.

Most Star Fox and Star Fox 64 mooks will die if you shoot them anywhere, and the rest usually die with only a few shots. Bosses, on the other hand, are usually invulnerable to laser shots and nova bombs, except for their easily-identified glowing weak spots. The bombs ARE the weakness for the first fight with Star Fox's Great Commander at Venom, and it's just a matter of timing it with when the cannons are open. However, the sequel does not impart nearly as much damage to bosses with nova bombs, and Star Wolf's advanced ships can even deflect them with barrel rolls.

This fight is notable in that it's pretty much designed to be won by using status ailments and debuffs, short of simply cheesing the battle by manipulating the random number generator to have obtained a large amount of an item called Dark Energy, which deals 50,000 damage to all targets. The judges are extremely fast and can heal each other with Elixirs (though not themselves). Three of them, however, are vulnerable to the status ailment Disease, which prevents all healing and which they can't heal. Another of them can be inflicted with both Sleep and Silence, while another is vulnerable to Confuse, Blind and Immmobilize, in addition to the aforementioned Disease. A typical strategy involves hitting the three that can be with Disease, then repeatedly summoning Zodiark and using its Final Eclipse, which deals 60,000 damage to all targets in range. Once those three are killed, this leaves Gabranth and Zargabaath, Zargabaath being the one who can be hit with Sleep. The player can then simply keep him asleep. Gabranth's shtick is to repeatedly whack a character with strong physical attacks, but he is vulnerable to Wither to lower his strength to the point where his damage is negligible. Once he's killed, the player can then simply deal with Zargabaath at leisure, even still keeping him asleep if they want. There are a few other bosses that can be dealt ailments, but this is the one fight where it's truly necessary.

By the time you reach the harder content, bosses will be immune to Stun so that you can't cheese the fight by constantly interrupting their big attacks.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_49ad83ee	comment	Bosses in World of Warcraft tend to be immune to incapacitating effects such as Polymorph, Interrupt and silence effects, and most notably stun effects. This is quite necessary, as if they weren't, every party would simply take as many rogues as possible to keep a boss stun-locked and incapable of doing anything. Similarly they're almost always immune to slow, to prevent them from being kited to death. There was a boss in The Burning Crusade whose movement speed was slow enough to allow kiting, and on heroic difficulty some people did indeed refrain from ever getting close to it. Bosses are almost always immune to silence, and some of their spells cannot be interrupted, though others can be, and indeed interrupting them can be necessary. Lady Deathwhisper's is a good example with her interruptable frostbolt of Kill the Tank. The game is helpful enough to provide a shield around the cast bar of uninterruptable spells so people don't waste an spell. A few spells also simply have a different effect on them (most notably the Deep Freeze spell of Frost Mages). And they are fully vulnerable to attacks or spells that can only be used on targets with low health or do more damage in that case. Those skills typically kill of a normal enemy right away, but against a boss they are still valuable, especially against the kind of boss that is the most difficult at low health.

Normally this would be your cue to break out a Gas Arrow to take everyone out at once, but the target in question is immune, due to wearing a gas mask (explained as him being paranoid about the gas-belching Burricks that formerly infested the area). You can (and should) still use a Gas Arrow to drop his bodyguards, but you'll have to run up and blackjack him afterwards before he can fleenote Luckily he's coded as a noncombatant, meaning you can use your blackjack to knock him out even while he's in an "alerted" state.

The Bible kills Mom and Mom's Heart instantly, but trying to use it on Satan results in the player dying instantly instead. The Chaos Card will kill absolutely anything in one hit, including most Final Bosses (it will skip 1 phase on most final bosses)... except Delirium, The Beast and Mother's Shadow. The Plan C item, which will kill everything in the room instantly, including any boss in the game... but it really does mean EVERYTHING in the room, including the player. Assuming the player doesn't have a resurrection method handy, it's mostly used on Final Bosses, who die slightly before the player does, thus it still counts as beating them... except for Delirium, whose death animation takes a full five seconds to finish, meaning the player will die before Delirium does. It's possible to gain so much attack power that bosses are taken out nearly instantly, but two of the Afterbirth bosses have a damage-blocking mechanic which rapidly scales up their armor when they take large amounts of damage in short periods of time. As a result, even runs that would instantly kill a normal boss can take a good deal of time to wear the boss down.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_4d2d6ce4	comment	Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn plays a variation; in the GDI campaign, the Temple of Nod has way more HP than can be taken off with a shot from the Ion Cannon, and repairs fast enough to be at full strength by the time it recharges. You have to breach Nod's defenses and damage it normally before you can obliterate it with the Ion Cannon. The rest of the series usually makes sure you can't knock out the superweapon building or construction yard with only one superweapon attack, but the rest of the base used to power these weapons are usually fair game. Tiberian Sun's expansion Firestorm had a curious glitch in the last mission of the game. While a single Ion Cannon blast won't destroy the mission objective, it can destroy the firestorm generator protecting it. Doing so bypasses the entire sidequest of having to capture the relay stations to shut the core off. In addition, while the Core Defender is resistant to all attacks, it was still programmed as a base land unit, so if you destroyed the bridge it was on while it was over water, it just dies due to the game not knowing what to do with a unit dropped into water.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_5425ce75	comment	Grand Theft Auto: The mechanics of the games usually allow anyone to be killed during gameplay (but may give you a Mission Failed if you kill them before their plot-driven death/wasted moment). Usual methods for killing mission targets include shooting their car until it explodes or running them off the road and carjacking them. However, there are rare instances in the series where key targets resist these methods. Occasionally, a target's vehicle may be invincible to damage and/or have locked doors. The most egregious offenders behave as an unstoppable force, knocking heavy semi-trucks off the road as if they were made of styrofoam to follow a scripted path. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City: All enemy NPCs follow standard mortality rules except for three bosses. Ricardo Diaz, Lance Vance, and Sonny Forelli are the only enemies who cannot be instantly killed with a headshot. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas has Tenpenny only appear in cutscenes, presumably so no clever player could kill him before he's supposed to die (also in a cutscene). During the one mission where he is in gameplay, his fire truck is invincible and follows a pre-determined path. A case in many titles involves characters who undertake missions with you on your side, but are later fought as enemies. They'll go down from a small hail of gunfire when they're on your side, requiring you to protect them, but once it comes time to fight them they'll be able to withstand several headshots. One aversion to this is Ryder in San Andreas — since the intended method is a chase sequence in boats, he himself only has a regular amount of health. Combine that with the fact that he has to swim out to his boat before the chase sequence starts and that the mission gave you a sniper rifle to handle the first half of the mission, and you can skip the whole chase and gunfight by simply gunning him down before he reaches the boat.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_57ad0c07	comment	Resident Evil In Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, Nemesis is encountered seven times, and no matter what Jill does to defeat him, he won't die, or even stay down long, the first six times. He can only be killed permanently the seventh time, in the Final Battle. The final boss of Resident Evil 4 cannot be killed with the rocket launcher. He needs a special red rocket launcher, which you receive after you pummel him with regular weapons for a while. The REMake of Resident Evil: You can find the Self-Defense Pistol, a .22 magnum derringer that can only be fired once but will down any enemy in one single hit. Bosses are the exception of course, with it instead doing about the same damage as one of Barry's .44 magnum rounds. Granted this is still a significant amount of damage, making the weapon helpful in fighting the Black Tiger or Yawn, but don't expect it to take them down in one hit. In fact, it was actually deliberately coded to not be able to one-shot a "boss" type monster, even if its damage output is higher than the boss's health, instead doing a HP to 1 effect. Subverted with the Crimson Head Prototype 1, one of two mandatory Crimson Heads encountered and the only one that you actually have to fight. Even with its massively balloned health compared to regular Crimson Heads (having between 2300 and 5200 depending on the difficulty, compared to a regular one which has between 300 and 2600) it's still as vulnerable to lucky headshots as any other zombie. One very easy way to kill him, at least as Chris, is to let the bastard grab you and use a flash grenade which will instantly kill him without wasting a single bullet.

But the only ones who could wield Holy Swords are those who possess the Title of "Hero"; Which Satou doesn't have.

Some enemies can block either or both elements, but every boss is immune. This hits no-one harder than poor Naoto in Persona 4. Naoto specialises in Light, Dark and Almighty magic, which is great for mowing down large numbers of Mooks but utterly useless in boss fights. Persona 5 has series of damaging Light and Dark spells in addition to Hama and Mudo, so bosses no longer necessarily nullify Light and Dark, but the One-Hit Kill skills will just refuse to work. Persona 3 does offer a highly entertaining exception though; the October full moon bosses can be, with some luck, locked into the "fear" status. If you happen to have "Ghastly Wail" — a skill that's guaranteed to kill anything inflicted with fear, you can trivialize this boss. In Persona 4, Chie's Follow Up attacknote Follow Up attacks have a chance to be performed whenever an enemy is knocked down, Galactic Punt, insta-kills a random normal enemy.

This makes is impossible for higher level creatures to suffer a critical failure effect, and heavily reduces the chance of a normal failure. However, this is usually reserved for abilities that have traditional 'save or suck' effects that heavily debilitate a monster and its ability to fight — such as stuns, removals, or spells like Baleful Polymorph and Feeblemind that essentially render a creature ineffectual — so damage spells and spells with more minor debuffs (like penalties to rolls or stats) are still fair game (and are in fact encouraged to help beat major threats). In addition, incapacitation effects still work on equal and lower level creatures, and certain creature abilities will have this trait too, making them less powerful against players if you fight them at a higher level!

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: Golems are flat-out immune to spells that allow spell resistance unless otherwise stated, and even then, it usually either slows it or heals/hastes it. Oh, and we can't forget epic-level golems! The Mithral Golem is only DE-HASTED by an actual slow spell, and the Adamantine Golem is straight-up immune to everything (most epic monsters have a ton of immunities on their own). Even this, though, doesn't stop creative wizards who can bypass the immunities by not targeting the golem itself. Image-creating illusions like silent image (mindless creatures don't have the reasoning capacity to disregard out of hand the river dancing gnolls that just appeared), buffing the meatshield, and simply "greater invisibility"ing past them are all accepted methods to defeat golems. Any wizard can bypass SR if they're properly prepared, and there's a ton of spells that ignore SR anyways. But those tricks will not affect the Golem's immunity, which works off the original text. And in 3.0, Golems were flat out immune to ANY SPELL not listed in their entry, even new invented spells. Every Elder Evil is immune to a slew of status conditions and magical effects, including petrification, anything that would alter its form or reduce its ability scores, and mind control. Your wizard will not be taking one of these down in a single round with a Save-or-Suck spell. Fourth Edition largely avoids this by not having a lot of potential instant-kill tricks in the first place. Elite and solo monsters will be tougher than standard ones (to say nothing of minions) and may take less damage from some attacks, but outright immunities to things player characters are likely to use often are relatively uncommon and conditions can be inflicted on these creatures as normal. Most solo monsters are immune to the "stunned" condition or have some easy way to shake it off. Since all the PCs are focusing on one monster, it would otherwise be too easy to keep the monster disabled for the whole fight. In the Fourth Edition Monster Manual 3, Lolth (the evil goddess of the drow) is given updated stats (she also appears on the cover). A sidebar describes an ability that Lolth and all actual deities have called Divine Discorporation which means that they can be defeated (even by mortals, though unlikely) but very hard to actually kill. If they are in danger of dying, this ability activates automatically, reducing the god's body to an incorporeal state that cannot be harmed, which reforms into his or her true body in anywhere from a few months to a few years. The only way to truly kill a god is to somehow neutralize this ability, and it can only be done by a method unique to each deity. (The book gives three suggestions for Lolth; apparently, such a method is supposed to be some Impossible Task similar to what is needed to destroy an artifact.) In 5th edition, most monsters that could be considered high-level bosses have the Legendary Resistance trait, which lets them straight up succeed on a saving throw three times a day without needing to roll for it, even if they have already failed the roll. This is generally used to make sure they can't be defeated with some simple Save or Suck spells. Constructs like golems, animated armors and similar also have the Immutable Form trait, which lets them No-Sell any attempt at transforming them. Deities like Auril in Rime of the Frost Maiden takes it a step further with not only legendary resistance, but the Divine Being trait, which renders her immune to all transmutation magic and makes her instantly aware of anyone trying to attack her, no-selling ambushes.

He's completely immune to projectile attacks including those that would stun or paralyze an enemy such as Subzero's freeze and Scorpion's spear. Projectiles hitting him simply bounce back at the caster making those attacks worse than useless. Additionally he can't be juggled either, moves that launch enemies in the air simply knocks Motaro down, preventing a possible combo on him. This immunity makes him possibly a tougher boss than the Shao Kahn for Mortal Kombat 3 and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3.

However, creatures with the [TRAPAVOID] tag will not trigger a trap while they're standing. In vanilla, this includes kobolds and gremlins, but also titans, forgotten beasts, werecreatures in their creature form, and the demons unleashed by Digging Too Deep. These enemies do trigger traps if they're stunned (by, for instance, putting giant cave spider webs on cage traps), as this cancels the effects of the [TRAPAVOID] tag. Dropping a drawbridge on a creature will usually kill it instantly. However, if the creature you drop a drawbridge on is too large, the drawbridge will shatter harmlessly against their heads.

While a single Ion Cannon blast won't destroy the mission objective, it can destroy the firestorm generator protecting it. Doing so bypasses the entire sidequest of having to capture the relay stations to shut the core off. In addition, while the Core Defender is resistant to all attacks, it was still programmed as a base land unit, so if you destroyed the bridge it was on while it was over water, it just dies due to the game not knowing what to do with a unit dropped into water.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_74f7210c	comment	The Legend of Zelda: Zelda II: The Adventure of Link: To prevent the spell "Spell" from being a Story-Breaker Power, the bosses and strongest enemies are immune to it. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: Link gains access to a One-Hit Kill move that, as you'd expect, cannot be used on most bosses. On some, the move can Attack Its Weak Point, but is merely a powerful attack and not a one-hit kill. The only exception is against Darkhammer, who actually goes down to it. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Ancient Arrows are a One-Hit Kill weapon that will instantly vaporize any enemy they hit. Against bosses and overworld minibosses, however, they are effectively reskinned bomb arrows: they do a fair amount of damage, but nothing mind-blowing. They also aren't a guaranteed kill against Guardians: they can kill a Guardian in one shot, but you have to hit the Guardian directly in its eye for that to work, otherwise it will just do some basic damage. Lynels are completely immune to all elemental effects. They cannot be burned, frozen, or electrocuted. Even explosive arrows will do little more than stun them, and even then only if you actually hit them directly in the face. They can still be one-shotted by the One-Hit Kill Ancient Arrows, but doing this means you won't get any of their extremely valuable item drops.

On the other hand, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? itself usually inverted this rule because their million dollar questions are that difficult and often obscure.

The bombs ARE the weakness for the first fight with Star Fox's Great Commander at Venom, and it's just a matter of timing it with when the cannons are open. However, the sequel does not impart nearly as much damage to bosses with nova bombs, and Star Wolf's advanced ships can even deflect them with barrel rolls.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_8f4731fb	comment	In first two installments of the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series the player is not allowed to use Orbs in a set boss battle, probably because things like the One-Shot Orb (that does exactly what it sounds like) and the Itemizer Orb (which turns an enemy into an item) would make it too easy. However, they're susceptible to every single status ailment in the book (Barring any immunities that might be granted to them by their typing or ability), which makes crippling them with moves or seeds an easy way to trivialize an otherwise difficult fight. PokÃ©mon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity does away the restriction on using orbs in boss fights. However, all standard bosses now recover from status ailments much quicker then normal enemies do, and are immune to things that cause a One-Hit Kill. Some of the later group boss fights also have the Prevention team skill, which makes it so you can only inflict one of them with a particular status ailment at any time. Lastly, the legendary Pokemon bosses are completely immune to all status ailments and also aren't affected by Endeavor (As reducing their 1K+ HP count to equal your generally 100ish HP would make things too easy).

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_9f02efb1	comment	EverQuest introduced a number of these. Many raid bosses in EverQuest were outright immune to spells that slowed their attack speed since such spells could reduce a monster's damage output by upwards of 60% or more. Notable examples for their time were Derakor the Vindicator and the Avatar of War, two end-game bosses in the Scars of Velious expansion that were notorious for their extremely high melee damage output. Eventually, Sony began allowing slow spells to work on many bosses, but with limited effect. Casters would receive messages such as "Your slow spell is only partially effective." Likewise, many bosses were immune to root spells which prevented them from moving, which forced raid parties to keep tighter control over where the boss was positioned. Most bosses also tended to summon their primary target to them if said target moved too far away. Another unusual immunity many bosses were given led to a tactic referred to by players as "belly-casting." Many named enemies and bosses were completely immune to all spells unless they were cast at point-blank range (belly-to-belly with them). This was particularly cruel when you take into account that most of these bosses also use powerful point-blank area-effect attacks.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_9f89a5f0	comment	PokÃ©mon: Averted as far as Status Effects are concerned. No PokÃ©mon (wild or trained) is immune to statuses unless their type dictates it (e.g. Steel- and Poison-types can't be poisoned) or an ability prevents it (e.g. Insomnia and Vital Spirit prevent sleep). There are a few occasions where a player is completely unable to capture a wild PokÃ©mon — even with a Master Ball — and has to defeat it: In PokÃ©mon Red and Blue (and their remakes), a Marowak ghost is fought in the PokÃ©mon Tower. Any attempt to use a PokÃ© Ball on it will fail. When facing Black/White Kyurem in PokÃ©mon Black 2 and White 2, Ghetsis' staff prevents the player from using PokÃ© Balls, thus Kyurem must be knocked out. It can be caught in its normal form later, after the main story is over. During PokÃ©mon Sun and Moon, UB-01 appears when visiting Aether Paradise. Despite being a powerful Ultra Beast at level 27, the entire island has a PokÃ© Ball jammer that prevents people from using PokÃ© Balls to capture PokÃ©mon, you included. After becoming the Champion, however, you're able to encounter it somewhere else (which lacks the jammer) and catch it without issue. Also in Sun and Moon are the Totem PokÃ©mon; regular PokÃ©mon that are far larger, can summon other PokÃ©mon to aid them, and come with an aura that gives them at least one Status Buff right at the start of the battle. You're prohibited from capturing PokÃ©mon in the area until the Trial is complete, and the Totem PokÃ©mon can't be rebattled afterwards. Comments by the island captains imply that the totem PokÃ©mon actually belong to them and thus probably couldn't be caught anyway. Necrozma is battled three times over the course of PokÃ©mon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon; the first time in its Dusk Mane/Dawn Wings forme, the second time when it's transformed into Ultra Necrozma, and the last time in its original forme. Except the last one, the game won't allow you to throw PokÃ© Balls at it, forcing actual battles to happen. Pokemon above the Trainer's badge-enforced catch limit in PokÃ©mon Sword and Shield cannot be caught to prevent the player from breaking the power scale without voluminous effort in overleveling the Pokemon they do have. That said, Eternatus, Zacian (Shield only) and Zamazenta (Sword only) cannot be caught when you face them, either. That said, Eternamax Eternatus is fought as a Max Raid Battle, and you are both required, and cannot fail, to catch it when the fight is over. In all games but Colosseum and XD, you can't capture another Trainer's PokÃ©mon and use it as your own — not even with the Master Ball. Justified since, as the game points out, those are PokÃ©mon that already have owners, and so you'd be blatantly kidnapping them. The aforementioned Orre games do allow this, but you can only snag Shadow PokÃ©mon, which are impliednote Shadow PokÃ©mon are the creations of Cipher, a criminal organization connected to the aptly-named Team Snagem to have been stolen from their true original trainers in the first place. Played straight with Tera Raid bosses in Scarlet/Violet, which have a HP multiplier making them hard to beat down even with four players against them. Needless to say they are immune to one-hit-KO moves. They are not immune to major statuses like sleep (but can self-heal them) but are immune to an assortment of effects such as Torment (prevents a Pokemon using the same move twice in a row) and Trick (swaps items, so you could stick the target Pokemon with a held item that hurts it). When they put up their "Tera Shield" they become immune to all pure status and debuff moves, though not to moves that do damage and also inflict a status effect or debuff. Also played straight with the Starmobiles in Scarlet and Violet. Since they are cars and not PokÃ©mon, they aren't affected by any status effects.

More recent bosses tend to be immune to anything that actively turns off their abilities, though (due to strategies making it possible for some teams to stunlock a boss permanently), leaving more mundane debuffs like Attack/Defense Down to do their work.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_a81325d3	comment	The vast majority of Final Fantasy bosses are immune to any form of instant death attacks, status effects, and Percent Damage Attacks. There'll occasionally be one or two bosses in a game that the spells will work on, to reward players that Try Everything, and there's frequently a slots combination that'll kill anythingnote many games feature an attack that functions as a slots minigame, with the effect depending on the combination. The "you win" combination is invariably obscenely difficult to get, and often screwing it up result in you losing., though. In almost all games, Slow is one of few effects that reliably works on enemies and bosses, which makes it one of the overall most useful status debuffs throughout the series. Odin appears in many games in the series with a One-Hit Kill attack, often called "Zantetsuken", that usually doesn't work on bosses. In Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VII, Odin can be used to kill mooks instantly, but against 'heavy-type' enemies (including most, but not all, bosses) he will perform a powerful damaging move instead. Though his instant death attack can't hurt bosses in Final Fantasy VI, its upgraded form Raiden has a chance to. Zantetsuken in Final Fantasy VIII occurs randomly at a battle's start and will instantly kill the enemies unfortunate enough to get in its way, but when it occurs in a boss fight against Seifer, Odin himself gets killed. In Final Fantasy XIII, with Odin's Gestalt Mode, Lightning can use Zantetsuken. It does fairly low damage, but has an instant kill formula that ignores immunity to Instant Death, the effect triggers if the enemy's HP is lower than the result of the formula's solution. This of course requires quite a bit of beating first, making it a Useless Useful Spell, Cid Raines being a notable exception. Surprisingly, in the original Final Fantasy, it is possible to defeat elemental fiend Tiamat simply by having a Black Wizard cast Break on her and turn her to stone. Similarly, the boss Astos is a major pain unless you cast Silence on him, making him a pushover. In addition, the final boss can be killed by casting Bane, a One-Hit Kill spell. It doesn't always work, although that's no problem since you can infinitely cast Bane using the Bane sword as an item. Final Fantasy II: Many bosses don't resist the Matter/Dimension element, which includes five different spells that act as instant-death when used on enemies. The actual Death element, which is exclusive to the Death spell, is a different story. With a Good Bad Bug in the Famicom version, it's possible to kill the Final Boss with a Level 1 instant-death spell. (He normally absorbs all non-attack elements, playing this straight.) Final Fantasy IV has the Dark Elf, a challenging midgame boss, unless you cast Weak on him, which drops him to single digits. This weakness was removed in the remake. Also, while several bosses ignore or are outright immune to the Poison/Venom spell, the upgraded Bio/Virus spell works on nearly everything (it technically applies the status effect Sap instead of Poison, and almost nothing has Sap immunity). Not only is it useful against nearly every boss, one particular optional Dual Boss becomes much easier to manage with proper use of it. Most bosses in Final Fantasy V have at least one weakness to a crippling status effect or instant-death type spell. (notably some instant-death attacks don't check for regular 'instant death immunity', but whether the target's a 'heavy' enemy; some bosses aren't) Additionally, you can use one of the Mix combinations to grant your characters the 'heavy' flag that gives enemies their Contractual Boss Immunity, protecting them from a wide range of nasty death attacks and status effects. The Lv X Blue Magic spells that inflict status effects ignore all forms of status immunity, including 'heavy'. Combo that with a Blue Magic that can manipulate an enemy's level and... There's a glitch in early versions of Final Fantasy VI that can let you use instant death spells on bosses. There's still a boss vulnerable to X-Zone in recent versions, but he's supposed to be. Final Fantasy VII: Flying bosses tend to take half damage from Gravity spells instead of being immune to them, and Emerald Weapon apparently counts as one. While you still can't inflict more than 9999 damage in one hit, at least you have a way of reliably inflicting 9999 damage per hit for a while. Note that Emerald Weapon has 1 million HP, so even at 9999 damage per hit it'll still take a while to wear it down. Its fellow Weapon, Ruby Weapon, is susceptible to paralysis. This means the player can render it unable to attack at all. During the caves of the Gi area as part of the main quest, the area boss Gi Nattak is vunerable to healing magic. A Phoenix down has a 1 in 4 chance of killing the boss, while an X-Potion which heals all life will instantly kill the boss. Two such potions can be found in the caves before the boss. On the other hand in Final Fantasy VIII: Selphie's hard-to-perform Limit Break "The End" works on bosses, including the final boss Ultimecia (assuming she's in her final form— using The End on a multi-stage boss only kills the current form). The bosses Gerogero and Abadon, being undead, can be killed simply by tossing a Phoenix Down at them. No enemy is immune to the status effect Vit-0, which causes the enemy to have no physical defense, thus dramatically increasing the effectiveness of Squall's, Zell's, and Irvine's limit breaks. This includes the Optional Boss Ultima Weapon and Superboss Omega Weapon. And it's relatively easy to get provided you play the card game (the card itself is a low level one) and have the appropriate crafting skill to turn cards into magic spells. Final Fantasy X: Yojimbo can perform One Hit Kills on any enemy, be it random encounter, final boss (not that you need it), and all the bonus bosses with his Zanmato move. However, this requires either understanding a farcically complex mathematical formula, or giving him more than half your money. Evrae Altana, the zombified sequel to an infamous boss, which can be taken down with a pair of Phoenix Downs; it's generally considered the easiest boss in the game. Final Fantasy XII: The International Zodiac Job System and the The Zodiac Age Updated Re-release add the fight with the five Judge Magisters as stage 100 of Trial Mode. This fight is notable in that it's pretty much designed to be won by using status ailments and debuffs, short of simply cheesing the battle by manipulating the random number generator to have obtained a large amount of an item called Dark Energy, which deals 50,000 damage to all targets. The judges are extremely fast and can heal each other with Elixirs (though not themselves). Three of them, however, are vulnerable to the status ailment Disease, which prevents all healing and which they can't heal. Another of them can be inflicted with both Sleep and Silence, while another is vulnerable to Confuse, Blind and Immmobilize, in addition to the aforementioned Disease. A typical strategy involves hitting the three that can be with Disease, then repeatedly summoning Zodiark and using its Final Eclipse, which deals 60,000 damage to all targets in range. Once those three are killed, this leaves Gabranth and Zargabaath, Zargabaath being the one who can be hit with Sleep. The player can then simply keep him asleep. Gabranth's shtick is to repeatedly whack a character with strong physical attacks, but he is vulnerable to Wither to lower his strength to the point where his damage is negligible. Once he's killed, the player can then simply deal with Zargabaath at leisure, even still keeping him asleep if they want. There are a few other bosses that can be dealt ailments, but this is the one fight where it's truly necessary. Final Fantasy XIII: Also, only a few bosses are immune to all debuffs. Deprotect, Deshell and Imperil are very usual vulnerabilities: Deprotect and Deshell severely reduce the enemy's defence against physical and magic attacks, while Imperil lowers elemental defenses, reduces chain resistance and makes other debuffs more likely to stick. In the sequel, they're practically required for the DLC bosses. Played straight with Pain and Fog, as all bosses are immune to them. Orphan's final form is not immune to Vanille's "Death" spell. It's a Shout-Out to SaGa (where you can kill God in one hit with a chainsaw). Final Fantasy XIV zig zags around the trope. For very early game content, enemies and bosses will generally be vulnerable to almost everything. By the time you reach the harder content, bosses will be immune to Stun so that you can't cheese the fight by constantly interrupting their big attacks. They'll also be immune to Bind so that they can't be immobilized.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_b0666b59	comment	In Neverwinter Nights, it shows the results of the in-game die rolls on the game journal. It gets rather annoying when you see "Player casts Hold Person. Boss attempts Will save. Fail!" while the boss continues to attack. Blackguard Aribeth, however, has no immunity to the spell Harm at all. This means that the entire boss fight can be resolved in twenty seconds or less if you brought along Linu as your companion, since Linu learns Harm automatically. In Neverwinter Nights 2, particularly in Persistent Worlds, bosses may not be completely immune to instant death spells, but they have saves so high that they might as well. They will also typically have Improved Evasion with a high reflex save, making many spells useless against bosses.

In this cases, the game explicitly tells the players to follow the Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors if they do not want to have a hard time. Some bosses are immune to certain status effects (i.e. Justice Aracrum being Immune to Gravity, and Primarchs being immune to ATK/DEF Down) while others lower the success rate of being inflicted with a status effect (particularly the useful ones like paralyze) each time they're successfully hit with it. Some bosses play with this by becoming immune or vulnerable to certain status effects at certain HP thresholds. Ultimate Bahamut is a particularly special case. He's not immune to paralyze (though he does gain resistance to it), but it doesn't stop him from using attacks that are triggered at certain HP thresholds.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_c74f2d3c	comment	Bosses in most of the Diablo franchise have some form of resistance to control effects such as freeze or stun; even if not totally immune they almost always have significantly reduced duration. The first game had Stone Curse, which completely petrified an enemy. It was not effective against Diablo but did work against other bosses and was a common strategy to use against some of them. Oddly, Diablo himself has an inversion of this. He is the only enemy in the final four levels of the game that can be affected by the Holy Bolt spell, which otherwise only works on undead targets. Diablo II got rid of Stone Curse but introduced crushing blows and other effects that worked off a percentage of the target monster's health pool, rather than a fixed amount of damage. These obviously had to be nerfed when dealing with bosses. Diablo II also added the ability to freeze enemies, and although freezing attacks could stop normal monsters dead in their tracks like Stone Curse did, it would only slow down bosses. Ironically reversed in Diablo III, where minions are virtually immune to damage from area of effect spells (to make up for their inability to avoid them), which are much more prevalent than in previous games. Since bosses tend to make heavy use of such skills, minions effectively have immunity to bosses (which of course doesn't help if the player dies anyway).

Hence the only way to kill her is, ironically, rush her with a ton of marines. And even then she respawns. There is however -one- exception to this rule, the Ghost unit's "Snipe" attack, but because of branching paths in the storyline, there's no guarantee the player will have this option available. In melee matches against human opponents, The Heroic attribute and the Frenzied passive trait confer limited immunity. The Protoss Mothership boasts the Heroic attribute which grants it immunity to Mind Control effects (Neural Parasites), while Ultralisks have the same immunity plus an immunity to snares, stuns, and movement altering effects with the Frenzied passive.

The bosses Gerogero and Abadon, being undead, can be killed simply by tossing a Phoenix Down at them. No enemy is immune to the status effect Vit-0, which causes the enemy to have no physical defense, thus dramatically increasing the effectiveness of Squall's, Zell's, and Irvine's limit breaks. This includes the Optional Boss Ultima Weapon and Superboss Omega Weapon.

However, in Metroid Fusion the SA-X, which was probably intended to be undefeatable, cannot be damaged by it (or by the derived ability called the Shinespark, which has the same effect on enemies as the Speed Booster). The Screw Attack insta-kills normal enemies but doesn't work on any boss.

As long as an enemy has a layer of interrupt armor, they're immune to status effects. However, every status-inducing attack removes a layer of interrupt armor, allowing even bosses to eventually succumb to status effects with a coordinated effort. This is a major gameplay mechanic, as hitting an enemy with a status effect while they're casting an ability will interrupt the attack, and render the enemy helpless and doubly vulnerable to damage for longer than the duration of a normal status effect. Certain enemies will occasionally have infinite interrupt armor, making them immune to being interrupted. However, they will always conveniently become vulnerable to interruption just before using a particularly nasty attack.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_fa5e90fd	comment	In MMORPG City of Heroes, Arch-Villains and Heroes (essentially big big bosses) have a system of resistances to controlling effects such as slows, stuns and immobilizes so high that they are all but immune. This presents a significant problem for characters who specialize in these effects, ranging from forcing them to game the system or use their secondary abilities, to making them outright powerless. This is referred to as the "Purple Triangles of Doom" because of the aura of purple triangles floating around the Archvillain's head. When they point up he has magnitude 50 protection against most status effects on top of the magnitude 6 protection that he would have as a normal Elite Boss. When the triangles point down, then he only has the magnitude 6 protection. This up and down cycle is not very obvious with all the other visual effects going on during battles, so usually nobody notices that they are down unless the Archvillain is suddenly locked in a Hold. For reference, your average status effect tossed around by the player will at most have a magnitude of 3. Get enough control specialists on your team, though, and the Useless Useful Spells become almost Game Breaking. Two Dominators or four Controllers can lock down almost anything in the game.

Contractual Boss Immunity / int_ff0f1797	comment	All bosses in Rogue Galaxy are immune to Burning Strikes, generally because they're too big to accommodate for their animations: since normal enemies go down too quickly to warrant using them and charging them up tends to take too long, they only really see any use against otherwise damage-resistant Mimics that don't respawn, which is a shame since most of them look pretty good.
