Moonlighter 2 V3NUS Miniboss (Muse of the Gallery)

V3NUS, the Muse of the Gallery, is one of the two minibosses on Moonlighter 2's The Gallery – Exhibition Wing floor. It appears at the halfway point of the run and drops Ancient Translator.

Where you fight it

  • Title: Muse of the Gallery.
  • Floor: The Gallery – Exhibition Wing.
  • Appears at the halfway point of the run, before the floor boss.
  • Drop: Ancient Translator (used for that dimension's early weapon upgrades).

How to beat it

V3NUS spawns with two or three helpers. Kill the helpers first: taser and stun effects wear off much faster on the miniboss itself, so clearing the adds makes the crowd control stick.

Elites and minibosses do not enter the Rupture state, so the backpack throw only works on their adds, not on the miniboss.

Drop

V3NUS drops Ancient Translator.
