All Crimson Desert Main Questline Bosses
Here is a quick overlook at all the main quest bosses in Crimson Desert. However, these are the minority, so make sure to explore the Crimson Desert map to find all the option bosses listed above. Also, don’t forget to check our Crimson Desert review to learn our opinion on the game.
Myurdin
Myurdin is the first boss that you have to fight right in the prologue quests in the game. Myurdin is the leader of Black Bears, and this fight is made in a way to make you lose in the end. Even if you do defeat him, the ending remains the same, so do yourself a favor and die to him early to save time.
Matthias
Matthias is a knight in a shining armor, literally, and he is the first boss that players will come across while playing the main quests in Crimson Desert. You will meet him in Hernand City, where he will challenge you for being a Greymane. You will get to learn the Pump Kick skill from Matthias during the fight.
Kailok, The Hornsplitter
Kailok, the Hornsplitter, is the first challenging boss in Crimson Desert. Kailok is the leader of the Goldleaf Merchants and one of the main reasons they resort to banditry. As a boss, he is quick to execute long-range AoE attacks. Defeating him will get you the Sword of the Lord, which is one of the best weapons in Crimson Desert.
Reed Devil
Reed Devil is one of the famous Crimson Desert bosses, and he appears in Chapter 3. The boss can be fought in a field of reeds. The entire fight has like three phases, and he is very agile with some very quick moves that you have to tackle to defeat him.
Tenebrum
Tenebrum can be fought in the Scholastone Institute, and it is a very annoying enemy to fight. The fight is simply about getting near the black cloud and spamming Palm Strike until its HP is zero.
Kearush the Slayer
Kearush the Slayer is a massive troll that deals heavy attacks and closes distances with his massive leap. Players will get to fight it in Hernand City, after the envoy from Demeniss brings it to the castle. The boss is very aggressive, so make sure to have plenty of food to heal in Crimson Desert.
Crowcaller
Crowcaller can be found in the Crow’s Nest in Abyss Nexus, and he is one of the cooler boss fights in Crimson Desert. This boss can turn into crows and teleport around to dodge attacks. The boss is very agile, so you will need to be very careful not to get overwhelmed.
Cassius Morten
Cassius Morten is one of the best bosses in Crimson Desert. He is a crimson knight, and his fight is highly entertaining. The boss uses a shield and has only one health bar. Use the Crimson Desert skill Nature’s Echo to quickly defeat this boss.
