To find the Miner, once you reach level four, you should unlock the Magma Barrack map variant. The other map variant in level four is the Hive Cluster, but we don’t need to go there now. Once you are at the Magma Barrack, you have to check whether the map offers the Miner or the Artifact of Sacrifice. You can check around the map to know which variant map it is. If you spot buttons on the left side, then you have the Artifact variant. The variant you should be looking out for is the one with the Direseeker (Elder Lemurian). This boss can be spotted on the lower right side of the map.
You need to make your way to the Direseeker and defeat it to unlock the Miner. For that, you need to step foot on the lava and pass through the narrow passage that leads to the bottom right. Hopoo Feathers, high mobility, and having incredibly high health can help you here. Keep jumping and running across to avoid lava damage. Once you reach the area, defeat the boss to unlock the Miner
Sometimes the lava tunnel that leads to the boss won’t appear, so in that case you have to revisit the level. Also, the boss will not spawn if the Teleporter has been activated, so be sure to check out the tunnel first and get the Miner. Lastly, if playing with friends, only the server host can view the boss, but everyone can attack it even if it is not visible.
That’s all there is to know about unlocking the Miner in Risk of Rain Returns. If you like this guide you can check out our other guides as well.
