Boss list
The boss list portion of the SavedInstanceChatLink is a bitset representing which bosses are defeated.

Example

If the boss list portion of a SavedInstanceChatLink is: 40

Then the recipe list bitset is: 0000101000

This set indicates that two (the fourth and sixth bosses have been defeated) specific bosses are defeated. Note that the bosses are listed in reverse order and therefore the first digit is the last boss and the previous boss is the next digit, etc. The boss list is just a conversion from binary to decimal.
