Chaos Wurms = Bosses
ApOcAlYpSe
Sorry if this was gone over in another thread but just as the title says the Chaos Wurms in the tombs apparently are considered bosses. Try running a hex on them its the half duration thing same as bosses. Personally i tested this with wastrels (hit in 1.5 seconds not the normal 3) and parasitic bond (triggered in 10 seconds). Just thought i would throw this out to the community if it wasnt already known.

If you wanna really test it.
Try use a Signet of Capture after killing 1.

Wurms don't have boss auras around them though.

I guess this must mean my PvE warrior is a boss too.

Many non bosses use elites.
While they may share some characteristics that bosses have, that doesn't make them a boss.
What does make them a boss are 5 things:
1. They have an aura around them
2. They have a special name (not always the case, some aura'd creatures have no unique name)
3. You can skill cap from them
4. When you kill them, you gain moral boost.
5. Res sig is recharged
None of this happens with chaos wurms.

They are just wurms. Wurms are resilient to hexes and conditions.

Wurms wear HoD helms.

Those wurms are not bosses. All wurms have those characteristics. They have 1/3-1/2 of the time duration of hexes and conditions. If you were that huge and had that much health... wouldn't you expect some other strengths?

Before i got to the darkness' i had used my res sig earlier on another lvl. Before any of the 3 darkness' died one teammember died, i noticed my res sig being recharged and used. Not sure if they recharge on the wurms or on lvl change, but i did think it odd.

it's called NATURAL RESISTANCE.
ANET went over this in an interview they held in place of a GotW.
it halves duration of hexes & conditions.
it's like hod helm, but cooler.
