Exterminator Prototype is a boss added by the Better Dungeons mod.

Appearance

The Exterminator Prototype looks like a large iron golem with red eyes. Its collision size is approximately 2x2x5 block; however, it looks like much bigger than its collision size. It also has thunder effect blinking randomly.

Behavior

The Exterminator Prototype attacks using melee attack, like most mobs do. Its attack strength is initially 2, but it increases as it takes damage. The attack strength is calculated using the formula 2 - (current health / max health) / 100. For example, if the current health is 200, 2 - (200 / 1000) / 100 = 10.

It also has 1 () point of health natural regeneration.

The Exterminator Prototype does not despawn.

Attacks

Arm Smash / Arm Launch

Exterminator Prototype has a special attack with an accompanying arm-swinging animation with additional particle effects that deals 7-21 damage and propels the player seven blocks into the air, causing fall damage upon landing. This attack can easily kill an unarmored player. Sometimes, this attack drives the player through the floor 1 block per hit.

Berserk

At near 20% health left, the Golem will go into a Berserk mode, turning red and doing 10 damage per hit.

Thunderbolt

When the player is too far away from the Exterminator Prototype for melee attacks, it will launch a thunderbolt toward the player, dealing 1 heart of damage upon impact.

Location

The Exterminator Prototype can found at the end of the Dwarf tunnels located in any [[Better

An Exterminator Prototype affected by Infernal Mobs.

Dungeons]] Volcano. It waits in a boss room filled with bookshelves and 8 large chests. The entrance to the room is large enough for a player to fit through, but too small for the Golem to exit through, making it quite easy to shoot at it with ranged attacks.

This boss can also be spawned in creative mode using the Exterminator Prototype item (id 7607:504). The item can also be used to initiate mob fights by left-clicking a mob and then right-clicking a second mob.

Natural Enemies

Exterminator Prototype will attack the following mob types when within range:

• Specter
• Skeleton
• Zombie
• Mercenary

Fighting

Fighting the Exterminator Prototype is relitively easy as long as you have a powerful ranged weapon. A Legia Bow is recommended. However, an Infernal Exterminator Prototype is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS and should not be fought without something to stop it from direct hits. Trickster daggers and walker swords combined are good for fighting the Exterminator Prototype, as you can make a copy, have the two fight, and teleport invisibly to sneak behind it. Always avoid Full Infernal Exterminator Prototypes, (11 abilities) and try to use cheat methods like suffocation or drowning. Like Iron Golems, the Exterminator Prototype cannot swim.

Treasure

The main loot obtainable by the Exterminator Prototype is the Fire Spear and experience. There is a 20% chance that Exterminator Prototype will drop 4 diamonds. The chance increases to 100% if the player's weapon has any level of Looting. The 8 chests in the boss room contain mostly random mid- to high-level loot, favoring metals and music discs.

Trivia

• Due to its size and its lack of block-breaking ability, using ranged attacks from outside the boss room is an easy way to kill it.
• Exterminator Prototype is classified as a 'dwarf', so any mob with a natural enemy of 'dwarf' will attack Exterminator Prototype when within range.
• Since the Exterminator Prototype is in effect an enhanced Iron Golem, it is known by some as the "Mutant Iron Golem". This is a reference to the Mutant Mobs Mod that adds the infamous Mutant Enderman, Mutant Zombie, and Mutant Creeper.
