Overview

Field Bosses, known as "Guardians," represent core PvE content in Chrono Odyssey. Unlike instance-based bosses common to MMORPGs, these encounters exist organically within the shared open world of Setera.

"Field Boss battles are dynamic and interactive experiences where every action and decision made during the encounter can shape the outcome."
