How to Beat Bosses in MilCombat: Shnek, Hook, Raider and Kobzon
Bosses are the heart of MilCombat — the best source of respect, rare gear and new locations. Here is every boss and how to take it down.

All bosses and rewards
| Boss | HP | Entry cost | Victory reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shnek — a saboteur who plants explosives | 1,000 | — | 5 money, 100 respect, BR-I |
| Hook — a brawler who takes down entire teams | 25,000 | 2 × BR-I | 10 money, 500 respect, 150 cigarettes, BR-II |
| Raider — a gang leader known for high-speed raids | 250,000 | 3 × BR-II | 15 money, 3,000 respect, 600 cigarettes, BR-III |
| Kobzon — an “immortal” singer-warrior | 500,000 | 3 × BR-III | 20 money, 10,000 respect, 1,500 cigarettes, BR-IV |
Each boss can also grant its own location — a new background for your soldier — and rare pieces of gear sets.
Battle orders (BR)
Battle orders are your “pass” to a stronger boss. Each boss drops the next-level order, and orders are spent when you start a fight with the next boss. So the path is always Shnek → Hook → Raider → Kobzon. You can beat Shnek up to 6 times a day — that is 6 BR-I, or three fights with Hook.
How a fight works
- A fight lasts 8 hours (up to 10 with the “Battle Endurance” talent). Run out of time and the boss heals back to full.
- The basic attack is free but can be used only once per fight.
- Most damage comes from weapons: grenades, FPV drones and ballistic missiles. Every attack consumes an item, so stock up in the shop in advance.
- A damage ranking shows which players dealt the most.
- You can give up with the “Surrender” button — it costs 30 money.

Weapons: grenades, FPV drones, missiles
Weapon damage is not fixed — it grows with your soldier’s stats:
| Weapon | Main stat | Special |
|---|---|---|
| Grenade | Strength (+ Endurance) | Critical hit chance that grows with Skills; crit ×1.5 |
| FPV drone | Skills (+ Discipline) | 25% chance of a double attack |
| Ballistic missile | Endurance (+ Strength) | Highest base damage and burns the boss for several turns |
How to deal more damage
- Talents — the talent tree adds flat damage per weapon type, crit chance, energy and longer fights. Talent points come from boss damage and weekly quests.
- Boss gear sets — a full set gives a percentage bonus to weapon damage.
- Platoon buildings — the Factory boosts grenades, the Arsenal drones, the Warehouse missiles. See the platoon guide.
- Raids — on a raid day all weapon damage gets a bonus.
