Guild Wars Elite Skill Listing with Maps

Created by Xennon

This is an elite skill listing for Guild Wars. This list will be updated as and when we find or get sent new information.

Some notes - An X on a map denotes a place that a boss MAY spawn. Some bosses do not spawn every time, some share spawn points and some spawn at different places all over a map. Also, we could have missed a possible spawn point. The maps here have been made and confirmed by us, or submitted by members of the community, so if a boss does not spawn for you, just keep trying, they will eventually. Information has come from such site communities as guildwars.tentonhammer.com, www.gwonline.net, www.guildwarsguru.com and www.guild-hall.net, as well as individuals who have simply e-mailed us (named on their maps).

NEW - Nightfall Elite Skills (Complete) - With thanks to Monk of Australia

A boss will only use the elite skill of its class. You can tell a bosses class by the colour of its aura.
