Ard Banser	• South Aelio • Mt. Magnus	Forms Soul	• Head • Claws (x4) • Head (weakpoint)	Weak to:	FORMERS minibosses akin to the Banser Sylvants. Attacks with fercious pounces, razorwinds, and a powerful wind tunnel. Upon becoming enraged, Fang Bansers will release a tremendous roar and begin to fight with new ferocity. Ard Banser's wind attacks—including his roar—can all potentially inflict Blind. Breaking all four of his claws will cause the Banser to stumble after leaps. Unlike his female counterpart, Ard Banser cannot launch razorwinds while grounded. However, he can instead perform quick charge tackles, backflips, and use his wind tunnel while in the air.
Ard Banshee	• South Aelio • Mt. Magnus	Forms Soul	• Head • Claws (x4) • Head (weakpoint)	Weak to:	FORMERS minibosses akin to the Banshee Sylvants. Attacks with fercious pounces, razorwinds, and a powerful wind tunnel. Upon becoming enraged, Fang Banshees will release a tremendous roar and begin to fight with new ferocity. Ard Banshee's wind attacks—including her roar—can all potentially inflict Blind. Breaking all four of her claws will cause the Banshee to stumble after leaps. Ard Banshees lack several moves exclusive to their male counterparts. However, they do have the unique ability to launch razorwinds while grounded.
Thunder Banser	• West Aelio • Resol Forest	Forms Soul	• Head • Claws (x4) • Head (weakpoint)	Weak to:	Variants of Ard Banser ultilizing electricity. Utilizes the same moves, swapping wind for electricity, but inflicts Shock with his electric attacks. Individuals with the Petalstorm title fights using modified attacks with new behaviors and a floral flair.
Thunder Banshee	• West Aelio • Resol Forest	Forms Soul	• Head • Claws (x4) • Head (weakpoint)	Weak to:	Variants of Ard Banshee ultilizing electricity.

Individuals with the Petalstorm title fights using modified attacks with new behaviors and a floral flair.
Crag Bear	• Central Aelio • Mt. Magnus • Resol Forest	Forms Soul	• Head (weakpoint)	Weak to:	FORMERS minibosses akin to the Sylvant Rockbear. Prefers close-range attacks, but will jump towards its foes from faraway, and some of its punches will release a shockwave. Can potentially grab ARKS defenders in a manuever that can be avoided by invincibility, but not with guards or parries. Uniquely, Crag Bear is suspetible to neither Physical or Elemental Downs.
Dune Bear	• Retem Alnothe	Forms Sand Soul	• Head (weakpoint)	Weak to:	Retem variants of Crag Bear. Fights identically to their Aelio counterparts.
Granmizer	• Maqead Lower Level	Forms Machini Soul	• Core (weakpoint)	Weak to:	FORMERS minibosses akin to the Automata Tranmizer. An adaptive mech that can take the form of a biped brawler, which focuses on melee swipes and slams, or an armored vehicle, which focuses on gunfire and homing missiles. When enraged, it can additionally transform into a laser turret that makes up for its lacking mobility with powerful melee and ranged attacks. A Granmizer's vulnerable core is only temporarily revealed after it uses its current form's strongest attack. In addition, Granmizer is suspetible to neither Physical or Elemental Downs.
