How to unlock the Defeat a boss with full health achievement in Dicey Dungeons - Definitive Guide
Here is how I earned this....
Play Warrior Episode 1 and look for these cards....
Now you need something that can do damage. Here's what I used, but you could use lots of things...
With this build, you are trying to tank or heal any damage you take so that when you do kill the final boss, you have full health. This build is good because you can add shield and not attack to buy you time until you can heal back to full if needed.
If you are going for this achievement, I recommend also trying for the 40+ damage in one shot achievement. Here is my guide for that as it's very similar.

Iron Shield [ ]: Adds [ ] shield.
This just adds to your shield to the value of the dice. I recommend 2 of these.Healing Crystal [max 3]: Recover [ ] health
This heals you. Hopefully you don't need this. You could use any other healing card either.Now you need something that can do damage. Here's what I used, but you could use lots of things...
Shield Bash+ [even]: Bash with shield, do Shield [ ] damage.
If you put an even dice into this, it will hit for the value of your shield, which we are obviously building up lots of.With this build, you are trying to tank or heal any damage you take so that when you do kill the final boss, you have full health.

I had a shot at this with the inventor, but I didn't realize it until after the fact. I had a gadget that did 6 shock status, so the boss never attacked. I was using the double to enemy, single to me during the battle, so the only damage was what I had brought on myself.
Correction: I misremembered. It was a borrow gadget, and it kept grabbing the shock damage & status equipment.

I did this with the inventor. I traded Hammer for the gadget that gives you three shock, and the boss never attacked. I was also occasionally applying an extra shock with Hammer+.

Short of killing a boss on your first turn (which would be really tough to do), you're going to need some amount of healing equipment to recover whatever damage you take to bring you back to full health before beating the boss. And just to be clear, you can take damage, you just need to heal back to full health before landing the killing blow.
Either way can be challenging to do because you're entirely reliant on your dice rolls so you can do damage fast enough to defeat the boss but also heal enough to be at full health at the end. You'll also want a "good" boss that doesn't make it very difficult to do damage and heal. Audrey, for example, is a pain considering she does decent damage every turn and constantly weakens most of your equipment, making it hard to do much damage or heal effectively on your turn. Beatrice, on the other hand, is a boss that I find very easily to destroy. You don't really have any say in it though, so you'll have to hope for the best or reset runs if you just can't do it. It should go without saying, but obviously fight all enemies throughout the run to be max level, be at full health, and grab all the upgrades and such along the way so you're at full strength.
As for which character to use, Warrior is a good option if you can put together a Shield build. You're guaranteed to get Shield Bash as an option later in a run, so you just need to get lucky to get one or two Shields along the way that allow you to use all your dice to build up Shield each turn. These protect you from damage, and then Shield Bash allows you to do damage based on how much Shield you have (without actually reducing your Shield). This is probably the most surefire and safest way to do this achievement. The only downside is that it relies heavily on RNG for actually getting one or more Shields and ideally some sort of healing equipment too. If you don't get a Shield by the time you finish Floor 2, might as well restart and try again.
