How to get Minespine
Minespine is not found in the wild. Evolve it from Geodeback.
Alpha boss encounter
Minespine also appears as an Alpha-tier open-world boss that roams freely, no quest required. 30 Primegy per attempt.
Full boss details & map linkWhere the game puts it
Minespine is never out in the open either: beating this Alpha is what lets a Geodeback evolve.
-
It waits in a cave, sixty-five metres under Beast Fang Ridge. Its pin shows on neither the in-game map nor the compass. On the surface, aim for the Glynsera Alpha: the cave mouth is south-east of it. -
The cave stays shut until the Breezy Plains Branch reaches 120 Amber: the Earthwake Prayer blessing is what shakes it open. -
The Forgotten Mine teleporter sits inside that cave system, a few steps from the fight. -
Squeezing in takes an Aniimo that can Tunnel: Budclaw, Shrubclaw, Geoclaw, Pebbling, Geodeback or Minespine.
