Minotarchos — Detailed Guide
The Minotarchos is the Labyrinth miniboss of Astraeos in ASA, a larger
Minotaur with golden chains. It cannot be tamed, ridden or bred. It matters because killing it is the only way to get the
Artifact of the Strong on Astraeos, which you need before fighting
Hydraskos.
Where to find it
Deep inside the Labyrinth cave on Astraeos.
How to get one
It is summoned with 2
Corrupt Hearts, 25
Corrupted Nodules, 5
Lightning Talons, 25
Megalodon Teeth and 10
Thylacoleo Hook-Claws.
Uses
Each kill gives a guaranteed Artifact of the Strong and 30
Element.
Tips
- No retreat: a barrier blocks the exit and cryopods cannot be deployed inside, so bring your full team in.
- Weakness: it hits fast and hard but has moderate health and is weak to fire.
- Team: boosted
Deinosuchus or high-level
Therizinosaurs are good picks.
