Undead Miner

Undead Miners (and the Vampire Miner in the and ) are enemies that appear in the Cavern layer and follow the Fighter AI. They wear a Mining Helmet, which provides a small amount of light around them. This light makes them much easier to find and can sometimes reveal sealed caves, much like blooming Blinkroot. Undead Miners can break down doors.

Undead Miners are immune to the Poisoned debuff.

Killing them is the only way to receive the Bone Pickaxe, Mining Shirt and the Mining Pants. The Mining Helmet, on the other hand, can also be bought from the Merchant for (and on mobile for ).
