Talk:Undead Miner

Mining Helmet
As of the most recent update 01/07/2015, Undead miners DO drop mining helmets. Needs verification.

Whoopie Cushion?
I heard an unsubstantiated rumor that this creature has (relatively) high chance of dropping a whoopie cushion. Can anyone confirm or deny that? --Theothersteve7 21:55, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
 * They don't (as of 1.0.3) --KoreRekon 17:56, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

Name
Was the name changed to Undead Miner? That's what the code seems to say... --KoreRekon 17:56, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Could you please post the code?
 * I can't post the code due to copyright issues, but it's name gets set to Undead Miner now. --KoreRekon 18:06, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

Damage
Can anyone confirm that the damage is 22, or 20 as listed on the wikia? I will try and test it the next time I run into one myself. MayaMayhem 20:14, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

Rarity
How rare exactly is this guy? I've encountered several, nearly once per long-term mining session. It's not a common occurrence, granted, but it doesn't seem to be a super low rare chance either. Then again, it was the weekend and I'd been spending an inordinate amount of time on the game. - Spinfx 05:02, 18 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Every time the game would normally spawn a skeleton, there is a 1 in 15 chance an undead miner will be spawned instead.--GauHelldragon 14:31, 18 July 2011 (UTC)


 * 1 in 15? I see, thanks. Yeah, that isn't a particularly low probability. - Spinfx 02:07, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

I have probaly seen more undead miners than skeletons.

Merge
Hope i'm doing this right, i figured we should probably have a section to discuss the suggested merge with the skeleton page, according to the suggestion it's because the suggester considers the undead miner a varient, personally i'm against the idea. mostly because the undead miner has a different loot table and name then the skeleton.

Vampire Miner = Vortigaunts of Half Life Series
Do not you think that there is a certain similarity between the two? --  Dinoxel  discussion  14:50, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
