Behavior[]

King Midas wears a full set of Golden Armor at the beginning of his fight, providing a high amount of ❈ Defense. King Midas loses his boots at 10% of his ❤ Health missing, his Leggings at 30% of his ❤ Health missing, and his Chestplate at 60% of his ❤ Health missing. Every lost piece of armor lowers his ❈ Defense significantly, making King Midas much easier to fight as the battle progresses.

Trivia[]

  • Under normal circumstances, in The Catacombs - Floor 7, King Midas has 4M health. However, if you clear every room except the Midas room, and use a Conjuring / Guided Sheep to blow up the crypt without walking into the room, then the next time you walk in following that, King Midas will have an upwards of 11M heath.
    • Interestingly enough, the same applies to all floors where King Midas can spawn.
  • The description of Midas Jewel and the name of its ability imply that King Midas has a brother named Byron.
  • Three months after the release of King Midas, an item with same ability as the one used by him was released, Midas Staff Midas Staff.
  • Prior to the 0.19.4 Update, simply spawning King Midas would mark his room as completed, and killing him had no effect on the Party's Dungeon Score.
