Mooshroom Monstrosity | Battle Overview

The Mooshroom Monstrosity is similar in appearance and manner to its cousin (?), the Redstone Monstrosity. However, its ability to hurl waves upon waves of flaming projectiles make it all the more fearsome.

Summoned Enemies

The Monstrosity will summon normal Mooshrooms to the battle as well, but only a few at a time – they can be a bit of a pest, so take them down with an arrow before they get too close.

Best Equipment and Artifacts for Mooshroom Monstrosity

Mooshroom Monstrosity Attacks and Abilities

Fires exploding projectiles

The Mooshroom Monstrosity's most fearsome attack is the waves of bullets it fires throughout the majority of the fight. They're fired at a surprisingly fast pace, so you can get stuck spending more time dodging the bullets than firing back. Also, if a bullet hits a wall and you get caught in the explosion, you'll take damage as well.

Punches and shakes the ground

When you get too close, the Mooshroom Monstrosity will punch the ground quickly with both arms, dealing damage if you're nearby. The movement is fast and hard to predict, so stay out of melee range to avoid being surprised by this attack.

Full-force smash attack

Just like the Redstone Monstrosity, this attack is the easiest to predict and handle. When it holds it arms over its head, get out of the way!

Tips & Strategies for Beating Mooshroom Monstrosity

★ Strategy Checklist ★
Use Ranged Attacks and sidestep its bullets Use Deflect to hit it with its own attacks Use Artifacts with Ranged Damage In the Last Phase, switch to melee

Use Ranged Attacks and sidestep its bullets

Even when compared to the Redstone Golem and Redstone Monstrosity, the Mooshroom Monstrosity takes its time getting around. Although its bullets come fast, there's no reason to run around the area to avoid them, as you'll simply lose time to fire back doing so. Instead, choose an open area to stand in, and simply sidestep its bullets when they come at you. This will give you more time to ready your shot and let it fly!

Use Deflect to hit it with its own attacks

If you've got the Deflect Enchantment on your Armor, you can raise your odds to knock its projectiles back at it to as high as 60%. This will ensure that even if you fail to dodge some of its bullets, your chance of being rewarded will actually be higher than your chance of being punished!

Use Artifacts with Ranged Damage

As you'll be relying on your Ranged Weapon for most of the battle, you won't want to find yourself short on ammo! Equip an Artifact with a ranged attack like the Torment Quiver or Flaming Quiver to ensure you have a consistent supply throughout the battle.

Although the Torment Quiver won't have any knockback effect on the Monstrosity itself, it can also be useful for handling the Mooshrooms it summons.

In the Last Phase, switch to melee

When about a quarter of its health is remaining, the Monstrosity will ditch its projectiles and start relying on its full-force ground smash attack. Because this attack is easy to avoid, simply swing at it with your Melee Weapon, then run away when it raises its arms and roars, as that's the attack sign.

Continue this pattern until you've made it into Mooshroom Puree!
