The Minoshroom is a mini-boss found in the second floor of a Labyrinth found in the Twilight Forest. The Minoshroom, unlike other boss mobs, does not spawn from a Boss Spawner but instead spawns with the world generation, and also unlike other boss mobs, does not cause a health bar to appear at the top of the screen denoting its remaining level of health.

The Minoshroom spawns in its own room that is filled with Mycelium and Mushrooms and has four Chests, one in each corner, containing loot such as Steeleaf Armor, a Maze Map Focus, some raw Steeleaf, and many Buckets of Milk. These chests are resting on blocks of Giant Mushroom, which is also found on the ceiling. This room will have four entrances, one facing in each cardinal direction, each 4x4 in size and filled with Fence, which prevents the Minoshroom from escaping from the room unless let out by the player or by an explosion that destroys the fence.

Tactics

The battle with a Minoshroom can be accomplished quite easily if the entrances to the Minoshroom's room have not been destroyed by outside forces. The player can wall off the area around him/her so that Maze Slimes and Minotaurs do not attack the player while battling the Minoshroom. The player can then dig out the layer of fences at eye level with the player and wait for the Minoshroom to approach the player and attempt to attack, at which point the player can use any sword (a Nano Saber or similar is quickest and will take the Minoshroom out in 6-7 hits) to take out the Minoshroom.

If the Minoshroom has been released, the first and foremost tactic that the player should take is keeping the Minoshroom inside his vault, which can be accomplished by blocking off the entrances with Cobblestone or a similarly inexpensive block to use. This prevents the Minoshroom from wandering the halls and escaping the player.

When battling the Minoshroom in this manner when both the player and the Minoshroom are in the vault room, good quality armor is advised (at least Iron will do the job) and a decent quality sword. The Minoshroom does not have a lot of health. However, he has a decent amount of attack power. To take the Minoshroom out, one can easily dodge his charges by waiting a few seconds and then sidestepping or by stun-locking him when he is attacking the player normally without charging. The Minoshroom does have a large melee range, so it may also be advisable to use a Bow to stun-lock the Minoshroom so as to not take damage with each melee hit delivered.

Drops

The Minoshroom will always drop a Minotaur Axe which will be partially used up with about 400-700 uses left on it as well as 3-5 bowls of Meef Stroganoff. The amount of Meef Stroganoff dropped appears to be consistent across all Minoshroom kills and does not appear to be affected by the Looting enchantment if it is used to kill the Minoshroom.

Trivia

• A Safari Net can be used to capture a Minoshroom, after which it can be spawned by placing the net into an Auto-Spawner. This is a good source of Diamond Dust, as the Minotaur Axe it drops can be macerated into a piece of Diamond Dust.
