Notes

• Each boss often has a higher chance to drop rare resources. They also guarantee Warframe blueprint parts, and may also yield weapon parts and/or blueprints.
• Completing the objective of an Assassination mission has a chance to place a Death Mark on the Tenno, which in turn gives a chance to face certain random bosses.

Trivia

• Though the Lotus will sometimes tell the player not to let the assassination target escape, none of the bosses will attempt to flee.
  • It has been noted that occasionally, if Zanuka is killed first, Alad V will attempt to flee the boss room. ^{[citation needed]}
