Major Miner — Mina the Hollower Boss Guide

Sandfalls — Miner's DenEditorial difficulty: 3/5

Quick Answer

Major Miner is a boss found in Sandfalls: Miner's Den. Older copies of this site incorrectly associated the encounter with Bone Beach; this page now follows the current boss-location reference.

Verified Boss Details

  • Type: Boss
  • Verified location: Sandfalls: Miner's Den
  • Region: Sandfalls
  • Difficulty on this site: 3/5 for a normal first playthrough

First-Clear Strategy

Enter Miner's Den with a stable loadout instead of experimenting mid-run. A consistent weapon and enough healing make pattern recognition much easier.

Watch for the end of an attack sequence before moving into melee range. If you are taking contact damage while trying to punish, shorten the combo and reset.

Use the Sandfalls route page for navigation and collectible cleanup so boss attempts do not get mixed with unrelated exploration decisions.

Strategy notes are editorial guidance; boss names and locations are checked separately against the current reference list.

Common Mistakes

  • Looking for Major Miner in Bone Beach; the current boss list places the encounter in Sandfalls: Miner's Den.
  • Trading damage when a safe reset would preserve healing.
  • Re-running the whole region without using the Sandfalls map to separate route cleanup from boss attempts.
