The Seven Deadly Sins Origin World Bosses And Elite Enemies: How To Prepare And What To Farm

The Seven Deadly Sins Origin Artwork 3

World bosses and elite enemies in The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin are open‑world “mini raids”: they hit harder, have more mechanics, and drop better loot than normal mobs, but are still designed to be farmable once you prepare correctly. Treat them as your main outdoor targets for high‑value materials and challenge content between instanced raids.​​

What counts as world bosses and elites

Open‑world combat scales from basic mobs up to large, raid‑style encounters.

  • World bosses
    • Massive enemies spawned in specific areas or events that “require a full party to beat” and are highlighted as some of the hardest fights outside pure raids.​
    • Use multi‑phase patterns similar to instanced bosses like Gray Demon and Albion: large AoEs, airborne phases, and environmental mechanics.​​
  • Elite enemies
    • Stronger overworld mobs that behave like mini‑bosses: more HP, harder‑hitting skills, and mechanics that punish sloppy positioning.
    • Usually tied to quests, farming routes, or special drops, analogous to elite/champion mobs in other ARPGs.

Both types reward learning patterns and building a durable, self‑sustaining outdoor team rather than pure glass‑cannon line‑ups.

How to prepare for world bosses and elites

Preparation is mostly about survivability, mechanics tools, and steady Burst access.

  • Build a sturdy outdoor team
    • Reviews note combat is “fast‑paced, real‑time” with big bosses and elites, so you need teams that can take hits and keep comboing.​
    • Bring:
      • 1 main DPS (Jericho, Deiane, Meliodas, Tristan).​
      • 1 tank/bruiser (King, Deiane, bruiser Meliodas) for frontlining.​​
      • 1 healer/support (Daisy, Elaine, Elizabeth).
      • 1 flex utility (CC, Adventure Skill, or Burst battery).​​
  • Practice dodging and reading telegraphs
    • Video previews show bosses with huge red telegraph zones and beam attacks that can cover large parts of the arena; ignoring them leads to fast wipes.​
    • Learn attack patterns in easier fights before attempting tougher world bosses.​
  • Bring mechanics tools
    • Some bosses (e.g., Gray Demon‑type encounters) go airborne and must be shot down using specific Adventure Skills, creating a stun window.
    • Others (Albion‑style) require interacting with environmental objects to expose weak points; plan to have at least one character with the right skill for each target.​

Treat world bosses like raid practice: you want a balanced team and at least one hero who can handle each mechanic.

Burst windows and elemental choices outdoors

Elemental Burst and Tag Skills are just as important outdoors as in raids.

  • Use element‑appropriate Bursts
    • Burst system basics: attacking with an element fills a Burst Gauge, and triggering it applies an element‑specific effect (Wind pull, Cold freeze, Earth barrier, Fire explosions).​
    • For world bosses and elites, prioritize:
      • Earth Burst for stacking barriers to survive repeated hits.
      • Cold Burst for freeze windows on dangerous elites.​
      • Wind Burst to group adds when multiple elites or mobs spawn.​​
  • Play around Tag Skills
    • Tag Skills, powered by their own gauge, can interrupt big attacks (as with Red Demon’s AoEs) or provide key buffs/utility; holding them for telegraphed moves is vital in open‑world boss fights too.
  • Align your DPS with Burst
    • Plan to:
      • Use CC/survival Bursts (Cold/Earth) to create safe windows.
      • Swap to your main DPS and dump skills/Ultimate during those windows.​

This turns even tough elites into predictable “Burst cycles” instead of random slugfests.

What to farm from world bosses and elites

While instanced dungeons are best for raw gold/EXP, field bosses and elites feed other parts of progression.

  • High‑value materials
    • Boss stages and demon‑type fights in 7DS games are a prime source of awakening materials, demon blood/water of life, and HP rune/orb‑style items used for higher‑tier upgrades.
    • Origin follows a similar model where limited boss entries and tougher encounters are recommended for rare mats, while daily dungeons handle routine gold/EXP.
  • Event currencies and special drops
    • Open‑world events and boss‑type encounters can award event currencies that feed shop exchanges for upgrade materials and cosmetics.
    • Seasonal or time‑limited world bosses are likely to be some of the most efficient sources of these event tokens.
  • General resource synergy
    • Guides recommend spending limited boss entries on the materials you currently lack (ascension/awakening/weapon mats), making boss content an integral part of daily farming loops.

Use world bosses and elites to top up rare mats and event currencies, then rely on gold/EXP dungeons and story for bulk farming.

For consistent world‑boss and elite farming:

  • Safe solo/open‑world team
    • Meliodas (dual‑sword or axe bruiser DPS with self‑heal).​
    • King (stance tank + gauge battery).
    • Elaine or Daisy (heals/shields and buffs).
    • Utility slot (Tioreh for debuffs/Tag Gauge, or a Cold/Wind CC unit).​​
  • Co‑op world boss team (per player)
    • 1 strong DPS (Jericho/Deiane/Meliodas/Tristan).​
    • 1 defensive frontliner (King/Deiane).​
    • 1 healer/support (Elaine/Daisy/Elizabeth).
    • 1 utility/adventure‑skill carrier for that boss’s mechanic.

With those setups, and by treating Tag, Burst, and Adventure Skills as core tools instead of extras, you can reliably farm Origin’s world bosses and elite enemies for the materials and events that keep your account progressing.
