Overview & Key Takeaways

In Beast Of Reincarnation, your (and Emma's and Koo's) greatest challenges will always be the bosses of each region. Emma's quest is to hunt down the various Nushi - incredibly powerful Malefact bosses - which spread the Blight in each of their zones, before venturing to the Capital to finish off the Beast Of Reincarnation itself, once and for all.

But the Nushi aren't the only dangers out there, because regular Malefacts and Golems can also appear in Elite varieties, making them much tougher to defeat than their ordinary kin. Many of these bosses are tucked out of the way of the main path, so it can be tricky to track them all down and 100% each map as you progress through the story.

In the guide below, we make the job of hunting down all the boss locations in Beast Of Reincarnation as easy as possible. Read on to find handcrafted maps of each region, with all the locations of every Boss and Elite marked and numbered so you can find them without any hassle.
