A Field Boss is a significantly strong enemy that you can fight in the open fields of Lumios to earn rewards. Every Field Boss has a Quick Time Event (QTE) which adds challenge to the fight. Once you complete a Field/Elite Boss Side Quest, the Regional Quest equivalent will become available.

Field Boss Types:

• Elite Boss
• Unique Boss

Quests that require defeating a Field Boss will have either a purple or orange monster icon in the quest title depending on the boss’ type.
