Agreed. Or, since they're so close to magma mines, goblin miners that drop wall bombs.

Adding in some limited use wall bombs would probably solve the problem.

Biggest difficulty with the dungeon layout is finding the monsters you need. Without wall-breaking power, it's highly probable that you will have to either unnecessarily kill popcorn to get past them, or else be blocked from exploring further by a monster you're not yet powerful enough to fight. The difficulty in searching out those "sweet spot" monsters that afford good bonus XP without being too hard to take down is what makes labyrinth so frustrating. This is a double-whammy, depriving you of bonus XP and of popcorn at the same time.

And regen space.

Still, I strongly believe that adding Goblin Miners with a *slightly* lowered chance of spawning is a fine solution.

While I like the idea of mob minotaurs from a gameplay perspective, I think that Rex loses something going from being THE minotaur of the labyrinth to merely A minotaur of the labyrinth. Goblin miners work better, I think.

Why not just put knockback on any old enemy?

A single knockback goo blob in the central area would be the ultimate wall-pulverising tool. Keep him alive, and drill your way through the maze

The problem is then it REQUIRES you to have to bust through stuff. That disqualifies anyone one wants purist.
