(If you see this outside wizmode or the arena, this is a bug.)

Whatever it is, it is capable of spawning countless monsters by casting Shadow Creatures, and is virtually undestructible itself.

To destroy it, lower the central elevator pillar, then pump rockets into the hole in its exposed brain when the pillar rises to an appropriate height. You can add another rocket while jumping down.

Oh wait, wrong game.

Useful Info

A test spawner is a monster created by dolorous for use in stress-testing the game's AI. With one million HP and extreme defenses, it probably won't die anytime soon. Test spawners only exist when manually generated in Wizard mode or the Arena.

Spells

Spell set
Slot1 Shadow Creatures Demonic flag
Slot2 Plane Rend Demonic flag
Slot3 Phantom Mirror Demonic flag

Tips & Tricks

  • The developer sorear once killed one in the Arena with 99 daevas. Being completely surrounded by a horde of creatures prevented the test spawner from summoning, at which point the daeva army just gradually wore it down with irresistible smiting attacks.
  • Test spawners aren't immune to instakill attacks. The Axe of Woe does the trick, as will Maxwell's Capacitive Coupling, Uskayaw's Grand Finale, etc.
  • If you want 2 test spawners to fight each other in the Arena, try using arena:small. You may need to spawn multiple test spawners so that they are actually in LOS of each other.
