Useful Info
Minotaurs are moderately powerful creatures which guard the center of every Labyrinth, protecting their treasure horde and preventing escape. They can be dangerous in melee, countering attacks with vicious headbutts, but they lack any other special abilities. If you see one outside of a Labyrinth, it's probably a shapeshifter.
Tips & Tricks
- It's usually pretty obvious when you're about to come across the minotaur, as the center of the Labyrinth is pretty easy to spot.
- Minotaurs hit hard, but aren't very durable, and the fact that they're usually asleep when you find them will give you a chance to get in some early damage, particularly if you're trained in Stabbing.
- Be sure to examine them before the fight to know just how heavy a hitter they're going to be. A bare-handed minotaur is much less of a threat than one wielding an obvious artifact executioner's axe.
