Boss weaknesses at a glance

Across all 74 bosses, these are the elements that most often deal bonus damage. If you are choosing which elemental weapon or Phantom Edge to upgrade first, the count of weak bosses is a good tie-breaker.

ElementBosses weak to it
Lightning26
Fire20
Frost17
Poison9
Water5
Chaos1

23 bosses with HP data have no elemental weakness at all, including Zuo Shang, The Puppet Scavenger, The Gold-Masked One, Mó Yuan, Leader of the Bastion of Mó, Iron Fiend, Young Mistress's Guardian, Chaos Yucong. A few resist almost everything: Gu Wanyue, the Wailing Wraith (immune to 6 elements), Meng Hua, The Merciful Lady of the Blossom Veil (immune to 7 elements). Bring raw damage and Guard Break for those fights instead of elements.

Three codex entries (Stone Hand Iron Fever, Bi Feng, Giant Saber Commander, Kui Yanyan, the Deranged) have no combat stats in the files, so they are left out of HP rankings.

Bosses that drop weapons and Phantom Edges

39 of the 74 bosses grant gear or key items when they fall. Several weapon and Phantom Edge drops are tied to two boss forms of the same character (for example You Loong and Chang Hong), so you only need one of them. The table lists the 29 that drop weapons, Phantom Edges, accessories or medicines.
