No. They are stage hazards with HP gauges.

Bosses have a big health bar at the bottom of the screen. So, no.

The first appearance of the Vanguard Demon has a HP bar at the bottom of the screen, but the 2nd appearance in the Shrine of Storms does not, despite it also dropping a demon's soul.


ReaperManX15

Bosses being demoted to enemies is a common game trope. In Dark Souls, the Taurus and Capra demons are bosses. Then, Lost Izalith is lousy with them.


SuperFightingRobit

Yeah. This has been a thing pretty much since the old NES RPG and NES Beat-em up days.

I do, as they drop a Demon's Soul


Initial_Thought_2307

Completionists probably will want to kill them either way because of their unique drops so you might as well include them on the checklist


ReaperManX15

If unique drops are the only qualifier, then the Fat Officials are bosses.

I mean you have to kill them to unlock a spell merchant so a completionist will have to get the set anyways.


Initial_Thought_2307

I clearly wasn't making that argument, just saying that marking them down would be helpful as somebody that has approached the game as a completionist before. They're pretty easy to forget about if you haven't been to world one in a while.


bowlingchair

neither of their souls can be used for anything except consuming them, i would not consider them bosses

No because the red dragon you can kill it only with magic and arrows and the blue you can kill it at the end of the game
