The biggest fault about the boss lineup forStar WarsJedi: Survivor is that players have to face off against the most interesting and challenging bosses more than one time. However, this is also its greatest strength. The characters are memorable, and having to fight them again and again helps develop a lore-rich story with somefantastic voice work by the actors behind the models.

With that said, boss fights in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is incredibly enjoyable and engaging. The lore and story behind some of the battles really leave an imprint for a memorable gaming experience. Even a boss encounter such as Zeik will have you remember him as “that guy” who was serving under Rayvis.
Zeik will be a short fight, and many players will dispatch them with little effort. His attacks are not hard to avoid, and if you just strike him whenever he opens himself up, the fight will be over before you even realize it. The only thing you really need to watch out for is when he glows red.
This will indicate that the move he is making cannot be blocked. Always leave enough room to evade an upcoming attack, and you may make it through this fight without a scratch, but it’s okay to get knocked around a bit as there is room for error in this fight.
9The Ninth Sister
Normally the first boss of the game is something special, they give you the sense of encountering your first “real” challenge. However, the first boss of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a very underwhelming confrontation. But thankfully, the second boss of the game is The Ninth Sister, which gives you a far better combat experience than the first boss fight.
This is a true lightsaber dueling throw down between two skilled warriors and really pulls you into a Star Wars-level experience. The dialog moments that follow this battle are just as equally enthralling. You will still be early in the game,finding your bearings as a new player, which makes this a nice challenge to get started.
The Skriton will deal an insanely high amount of damage, so much so that it seems borderline unfair to get even one hit in. This is offset by being able to call upon a trusted ally during this fight that will send health your way to patch up the damage.
The fight itself is actually one of the shorter boss fights, as you are able to deal a lot of damage right back at the Skriton. If it grabs you in its claw, it will relentlessly strike at you with its stinger, and your health will just be decimated. Always be on the defensive with this fight.
7Dagan Gera (First Fight)
This is another lightsaber-heavy dueling experience, and it will not be the last. The first fight against Dagan Gera is a big step up from The Ninth Sister. He feels much less like a hulking berserker and more like an elite swordsman.

You will really need to watch yourself with this fight, as they have several short attacks that land very quickly and will chain together. He’ll throw his lightsaber spinning at you, but this can easily be deflected. Always have an eye on him while there is some distance between the two of you, as he can close the gap very quickly by dashing.
Rayvis is a rampaging juggernaut. They have an unblockable spinning attack and hit hard. They will disengage from close quarters while shooting a blaster that can chisel away at your much-needed health, so always be ready to protect yourself.
If you see them swinging their weapon while you have some distance between the two of you, don’t think you’re safe, it can extend pretty far when it needs to, and no point in this room is a safe enough distance.
5Dagan Gera (Third Fight)
There are three times you will face off against Dagan Gera, and while the third has more elements to it, it is not as hard as the last encounter with him. What makes the third fight much less stressful is that you have an ally with you to not only distract Dagan but also deal out some chisel damage.
The second half of the fight really steps it up, but all the damage they received prior remains. All the new tricks they may be packing are not hard to play around with, and you will have a harder time in the second fight than this one. Sometimes fights with a lot going on can put a strain on one’s frame rate, sobe sure you have the right graphics settings.
4Dagan Gera (Second Fight)
Dagan Gera is back for another bout, but this time they are bringing a Double-Bladed lightsaber with a lot more tricks up their sleeve. This fight makes the first encounter with Dagan look like a cakewalk by comparison.
They will throw part of their blade, having it spin around as an obstacle and a threat. At the same time, they will come at you, giving you two things to worry about. If that wasn’t bad enough they will end a combo with an unblockable attack.
3Darth Vader
Its iconic boss fights like this which can forever imprint a game into your memories and make you recall just how amazing it felt to play. Your hits do enough damage to make victory seem within reach but little enough to make you feel a tad overwhelmed.

Darth Vader has lots of unblockable attack options. He will throw objects at you using The Force and will advance toward you menacingly enough to keep you constantly in a state of alertness. You always need to be dealing with damage while at the same time being cautious of an incoming attack.
2Bode (First Fight)
This is a pretty massive spoiler, but your buddy Bode betrays you, as is evident by his entry as a boss on this list. Bode has a very versatile kit at their disposal. They have unblockable blaster shots, they place mine like obstacles on the ground, and they are even packing a lightsaber to make close-range combat a bother for you.
This fight is really meant to test your metal as a Jedi, so much so that the game doesn’t expect you to win it and progresses the story anyway.
1Bode (Second Fight)
The first fight with Bode was just to give you a small taste of what this fight is going to be like. While they give you an ally to help you, they are not present for the duration of the fight.
This puts the full load of winning the fight solely on your shoulders, and you will need to use everything you have learned and honed to win it. Bode has everything they showed, along with some new tricks, such as throwing their lightsaber while firing dual blasters.
