Elite Boss Monsoon

[Tyrannus]

Someone wanna tell me what the ♥♥♥♥ an elite boss is? I've done 4 1hr runs on monsooon now and every boss i've killed has not completed the achievement. It was my understanding that an elite boss was one of the standard bosses that would spawn from portal with horns and a unique title like "blazing" or "glacial". I've defeated tons of these and nothing, so what the ♥♥♥♥ is an elite boss and how do I find one?

hm weird, ive already killed maybe a half dozen...

the boss need to be a teleporter boss
( not an overloading worm)
you need to be host ( but thats only help )

[Solemen Wolf]

Elemental Type + Boss Name

Example, Overloaded Vagrant

Overloaded Worm is not an elite variant of the Magma worm. it would be called Overloaded Magma Worm instead if it was the case.

I can't tell you what you're doing that doesn't earn you it, but I can tell you that my first elite monsoon boss yielded it. I played Artificer rather than engineer because I heard turret kills didn't count, and just practiced until I could get to loop 2, then got lucky enough to find a mountain shrine, which spawned a blazing vagrant.

My experience may have been unusually lucky, but the challenge is really just asking you to get good enough at monsoon to consistently reach loop 2 and beyond, and then do that for a few runs.

After that run game doesn't even feel fun below monsoon.

Good luck, I believe you can do it.

elemental beetle queen, claydude, vagrant or stone golem

Needs to be spawned by the teleporter to count as a boss, otherwise its an elite enemy

[Revolver Rez]

Beetle, Vagrant, Imp and Titan as elites give you the achievement. The horde of many do not, nor does the overloading worm (because for some reason it counts as its own class and I don't know why)

Also, turret kills do actually count towards it. I ran away while mine killed a blazing beetle and got Deicide.

I ran into the same problem a few weeks ago, it turns out that it doesn't count if a turret/non-player kills the boss. So basically play as non-engineer character and you should be able to unlock it easily.

100% turrets count. I did this with my engineer and trust me by that point I was running around while turrets did all the work. No way I killed it myself, so turrets do count (from my experience).

This has been discussed a bunch.

A lot of people are having problems getting this to pop the first few times.

I got it after activating a mountain shrine on stage 6 or so. I had to kill about 8-10 elite bosses before it popped for me. The later you go and the more mountains you pop, the easier it will be for you to get it imo
