MapleStory Boss Guide - All Bosses, Drops and Boss Crystal Prices

June 20, 2024

One of the best parts of playing MapleStory is taking down the hardest bosses in the game for rare items, powerful weapons and millions of mesos. This boss guide will show you all the MapleStory Bosses, how you can access them and their most prominent rewards.

Before the Big Bang update, MapleStory only had a few bosses for players to take down. Today, MapleStory has plenty of bosses to fight, and you're encouraged to fight them on multiple characters to earn millions of mesos. If you've never heard of "Bossing Mules", then you're missing out.

MapleStory Bosses all have a cooldown after each kill. This can be from once per day, once per week and in some cases, once per month. This is on a per character basis, so if you have lots of high-leveled characters, you can boss on them multiple times per day!

The top-tier bosses drop the best items and as the power-creep gradually goes up, new bosses are introduced for players to fight. If you're just starting out, this Boss Guide will give you a good idea of what Bosses to take on in a nice progressive order of difficulty.

Check out our MapleStory Boss Crystal Calculator tool to see how much mesos you can earn from bosses in MapleStory.

Let's dive in!
