Discover Custom Mobs Updating
One last feature that did not quite fit into the artwork above... Each time you change your custom animals or custom entities in the GUI, they will update automatically in your worlds!
Is Boss™ for me?
Below I have tried to enumerate many sticking points I personally met when I had a server with 30k unique players, and that this plugin will help you with.
Remember, THIS IS NOT THE MAGIC PILL (but it may be a close to). The best solution to having a quality server at the first place is CARING. Here is some general advice that apply regardless if you will buy this plugin:
- Do you find the default Minecraft mobs boring and wished you could change them?
- Do you get bored killing the same mobs again and again?
- Do you have monster arena plugin on your server and wish to improve it dramatically?
- Have you ever had an idea of a monster dropping special key to unlock some part of your server?
- Do you players abandon your survival server after some time because they "seen it all"?
- Or generally if you feel like you're loosing players on your server, this plugin may help you gain it back.
Remember, THIS IS NOT THE MAGIC PILL (but it may be a close to). The best solution to having a quality server at the first place is CARING. Here is some general advice that apply regardless if you will buy this plugin:
- Be mindful about how you structure your gameplay and your worlds. Sometimes less is more.
- Install a minigame plugin that will keep player engaged while they are not playing.
- Consider having a multi-world plugin like Multiverse-Core that enables you to have multiple worlds
- Install a dynamic map like DynMap so you motivate players to track themselves in the worlds.
- Read the Spigot change-log often, try to understand the changes and update your Spigot accordingly (every second day at minimum on new Minecraft versions, otherwise once a week is in my opinion enough).

Excellent plugin by a brilliant developer. Been using this plugin to make a PvE Arena and a Christmas Mob for my server so far and it is excellent. Really well put together and really responsive dev if you do have an issue which is extremely rare as the releases are clearly well developed and tested beforehand.
I requested Lands integration so that mobs can respect Lands claim flag and the Dev accepted the request and added it within a few days.
This is 1 of 4 plugins I own now from this developer and I can say they are all consistently high quality and feature rich.

Boss & ChatControl Red plugins r the worse paid plugins r now.
Basically trash for 1.8.8 I imagine for latest version as well.
Do not hesitate to skip these plugins.
Especially if you dont wanna break your screen.

Please provide evidence for your claims because Boss does work on 1.8.8. You are using fork of fork of fork for a 10-year old Minecraft version which we still support, but if things do not behave as they should simply open a ticket on GitHub instead of spamming 4 negative reviews (2 on ChatControl, 2 on Boss).

Hello! I have fixed it for your fork. Keep in mind it's very difficult to test on all 1.8.8 forks. We've fixed it! Let us know if you have any more issues by opening a ticket on GitHub .

Hello! I really like this plugin and it's very easy to create your own bosses with it, what I would like to see in the future is improvements to the GUI to make it look more "premium", I like the simplicity that the GUI offers but yeah, good example is "Lands" plugin GUI menu which looks very good
kangarko
Thanks for your suggestion!

Great plugin for bosses wish the lore config for boss eggs were a little easier but other then that great plugin
kangarko
Hey! You don't need to use the config file to do that, instead, just type /boss menu, select your Boss > Spawning > Spawn Egg Appearance page, and you can easily customize the egg there: https://i.imgur.com/aefFrxy.png
