Description
Adds tough and challenging bosses to the game, forcing you to not go and brute force or snipe them down, rather dodge and evade, as well as attack at the right time.
Bosses:

Deviser:
Health: 440
Armor: 13
A Golem-like Sentinel with control over thunder. Don't be shocked!
Has a range of attacks, melee and ranged. Can stab and grab you, dealing big damage while you are grabbed, and is able to summon a rain of spears at phase 1. Can apply electrified from most melee hits, increasing damage from lasers, so it is advisable to dodge. Has 2 phases (summons rain at phase 2 as well as able to dodge and uses 2 more devastating attacks).
Can be summoned (for the meantime) by crafting a Thunderer Summoner block, right click on the placed block to summon the boss. When defeated, drops Thunderium and Thunderous Essence, which are used to create 2 new weapons, Thunder Spear and Deviser Gauntlet, both allowing you to harness some of the boss' attacks.

Scorched Knight:
Health: 270
Armor: 15
Who or what is in that armor? A human? A blaze? Both!? All we know is that it wants to burn all its foes into the ground.....
Consists of melee attacks, a charge, slam, jump, and a special, dangerous move that leaves the boss stunned afterwards. Can apply a DoT called Scorched, which reduces a players offense and defense slightly. (Creative Only as of now)

The Silent Swordmaster (W.I.P):
Health: 400
Armor: 12
Only phase 1 as of now:
Can dodge & block attacks, can grab and lift you in the air and slam. Has a fire wave attack that can heal the boss when it hurts you, then it can summon small tornados that carry and damage you. Has a dash and a jump attack.
Note: If your system isnt that great, I'd recommend disabling the boss' shadow trail in the config for better performance.
