How to Beat Redstone Monstrosity | Boss Fight Guide

Add to Watchlist

Redstone Monstrosity.jpg

This is a strategy guide for beating Redstone Monstrosity, a Boss in the game Minecraft Dungeons. Learn about Redstone Monstrosity's attack patterns, weaknesses, and tips and strategies for defeating them.

Redstone Monstrosity | Battle Overview

Redstone Monstrosity1.jpg

The Redstone Monstrosity is encountered in the Fiery Forge. It is basically an improved version of the Redstone Golem, except it summons moving redstone blocks instead of mines and its melee attack now deals damage to a large area.

Best Equipment and Artifacts for Redstone Monstrosity

Melee Armor Ranged
Truthseeker
(Stunning, Soul Siphon)
Grim Armor
(Explorer)
Harp Crossbow
(Piercing)
Artifacts
Flaming Quiver Soul Healer Boots of Swiftness

With the 3% lifesteal aura from Grim Armor plus the Soul Healer artifact, you do not have to worry much about your health since the Soul Healer artifact only has 1 second cooldown. Just remember to use the artifact if you are low on health.

Your soul consumption is covered by both the Truthseeker's Soul Siphon enchantment and the +100% souls gathered bonus from Grim Armor as long as you keep hitting enemies especially the redstone blocks that appear.

Redstone Monstrosity Attacks and Abilities

Ground Smash

The Redstone Monstrosity moves and attacks slower than the Redstone Golems, but when it gets close enough to a player, it will smash the ground that deals heavy damage in a large area in front of it.

Summon Redstone Blocks

Instead of making lava mines sprout like the Redstone Golems, it will make redstone blocks appear that deal damage on contact. These blocks behave like mobs and they attack by charging at the player.

Spew Lava

The Redstone Monstrosity can also spew lava that deals damage to a wide area in front of it.

Tips & Strategies for Beating Redstone Monstrosity

Strategy Checklist



Take Out the Blocks

The Redstone Monstrosity occasionally summons redstone blocks that can be annoying if you do not destroy them quickly. Focus on destroying them before dealing damage to the boss.

Be Careful of Lava Pools

There are also lava pools in this area but are more noticeable this time. Try not to fall into them while running around to avoid getting heavily damaged.

Overload the Cores

There are cores scattered around the battlefield and you should already know how they work by now. Wait until the Redstone Monstrosity is positioned along tha paths or until it gets close to one of the cores before overloading it.

The explosion from these cores deal massive damage to anything caught in it, so you better run when you activate one of them. Make use of these and their positioning for an easy win!

Learn to Kite

"Kite" the Redstone Monstrosity like you did with the Redstone Golems by using ranged attacks when it is chasing you and melee attacks when it stops to summon redstone blocks.
