No minataur boss!
I just completely cleared the bottom of the maze, and the boss minataur is nowhere to be found. I'm running on OSX 10.6.
this is B29...

Re: No minataur boss!
Where are they kept on OSX?
Re: No minataur boss!
Nevermind, I figured it out... the location of the save file that is.
Re: No minataur boss!
Err it's right there in the upper middle of the level !

Re: No minataur boss!
Duh... How did I miss him? I searched the level 3 times. I guess I need a vacation
Re: No minataur boss!
Very easy to miss things in here - if you've explored every passageway surrounding a single, other passageway, from what you see, it looks like you explored everywhere even when you haven't.
Re: No minataur boss!
Yeah. I really hate the maze. I usually rush through the first four levels, then "carefully" search the fifth. Why I kept missing that particular corner though... Oh well
Re: No minataur boss!
Maybe the boss should immediately know your location on level 5? Then he'll always be hunting you down. Turns tedium into fright!
Re: No minataur boss!
Only if the maze is changed to have loops. Otherwise you'd have the same issue that the Sandworm Queen fight currently has (forced to stair-dance, unless you want to teleport and makes things harder for yourself).
Sorry about all the parentheses (sometimes I like to clarify things).
Re: No minataur boss!
I've never stair-danced with the sand-queen... And meeting the Minotaur as he hunts you is pretty much the same as meeting him during normal exploration, except you'll spend a little less time exploring the level.
Re: No minataur boss!
I agree with Grey... sand-queen to me has always been a pushover so long as I can reach her with my attacks, if I die in there it's to her summons, after she died. (Maybe I shoulda tried to keep that corrosive tunneller alive a little while longer, eh?) ... and even that doesn't happen too much, mostly because the gravity worms end up providing excellent crowd control for me as well as themselves.
Re: No minataur boss!
Yeah, perhaps I should clarify. Right now I just stand on the stairs and wait for the Sandworm Queen, since I know she will find me. She's much less dangerous than the level itself; between the tunneling and all the summons I try to choose my own ground, and the stairs/starting room are the most natural choice.
Sorry about all the parentheses (sometimes I like to clarify things).
Re: No minataur boss!
Ditto. Last time I fought her though, I had to go searching for some odd reason.

Re: No minataur boss!
I also had a similar problem. He can be very difficult to find.
