A lot of bosses are badass, but most don't one shot you unless you wear fully upgraded armor specifically meant to counter a specific element. (Or are just so squishy that a stiff breeze could kill you)

On the other hand, the Ancient Dragon's ability to one shot you without specifically ensuring your fire protection is through the roof and hit 70% of the arena in the process is not badass. That's just difficulty for the sake of it.
