== 🔁 [[Attack]] Behavior ==

* The Minotaur is always in **multi-attack mode**, hitting all players in range — though the instance is solo-only.
* **Attack frequency** varies:

  * Melee: every 6 ticks
  * Magic: 25% chance to cast
  * Ranged: 50% chance to fire between other attacks

* It ignores normal projectile clipping — expect attacks even when behind cover.

== 🧱 Special Attributes ==

* Does **not flinch** (no block animation when hit).
* Switches styles **randomly** during combat.
* Deals **consistent pressure** — always stay alert with prayers and food.

== 🛡️ Tips for Fighting the Minotaur ==

* Bring high-defense gear with **Magic and Ranged resistance**.
* Keep **Protect from Melee** active unless it clearly switches styles.
* Use food wisely — damage can spike quickly due to multi-style aggression.
* Be prepared for sustained damage over time due to frequent attack cycling.
