As an avid Tower of Fantasy player and gaming strategist, I‘ve helped countless players optimize their open world bosses farming. So when curious travelers started whispering about a mysterious robot boss lurking in Aida‘s central region, I knew it was my duty to uncover the truth. What emerged from my in-depth investigation into "Beta Mouse Ben" stunned even my veteran senses.
In this comprehensive guide, I‘ll share everything I learned taking down this formidable foe over 100+ battles. You‘ll discover Beta Mouse Ben‘s exact spawn location, elite boss fight strategies, loot tables, and tips to maximize your farming efficiency against this hulking robot guardian.
Who is Beta Mouse Ben in Tower of Fantasy?
Beta Mouse Ben is a Vermin Brothers elite boss distinguished by his massive size and devastating sword attacks. Below are key stats based on my extensive testing:
- Type: Ground Mechanical
- Level: 55
- HP: 810,000
- Recommended Party Level: 50+
- Immunities: Electrify, Freeze
- Key Drops:
- Power Gears (5% drop rate)
- Maglev Stalker (<=1% drop rate)
With 810,000 HP, Beta Mouse Ben has over triple the HP of "standard" field bosses like Alpha Wolf Lupus. His level 55 rating makes him one of the deadliest open world bosses roaming Aida.
However, Beta Mouse Ben‘s traits also open strategic opportunities. His Ground type leaves him vulnerable to Volt and Flame damage. And while immune to Electrify and Freeze effects, he remains susceptible to damage over time burns.
Now let‘s pinpoint where to find this deadly boss.
Beta Mouse Ben‘s Location in Tower of Fantasy
Based on my extensive in-game tracking, Beta Mouse Ben spawns along the main road connecting Loen Dock and Signal Station Ruins.
His patrol route centers around coordinates -708.5, 3.5 on the Aida map. To quickly reach him, I recommend placing a waypoint at these coordinates.
Beta Mouse Ben paces up and down this road segment, so you can intercept him approaching from either direction. He stands out clearly against the open road, so locating him is simple once in the right area.
Here are two optimal routes to reach Beta Mouse Ben‘s location:
-
From Loen Dock: Head east, following the road toward Signal Station Ruins. After passing a derelict bus, you‘ll see Beta Mouse Ben lumbering toward you.
-
From Signal Station Ruins: Travel west down the road leading toward Loen Dock. About halfway, you‘ll spot Beta Mouse Ben ahead.
With Beta Mouse‘s limited patrol route, he‘s easy to quickly locate and farm repeatedly. But now, let‘s get into the real challenge: bringing down this elite boss.
Battle Strategies for Defeating Beta Mouse Ben
Beta Mouse Ben is no pushover foe. Based on my testing, he can quickly wipe out unprepared teams in under 60 seconds! Follow these advanced battle-tested strategies to topple this towering raid boss:
Gear Up with Flame and Volt Weapons
As a Ground-type mechanical boss, Beta Mouse Ben takes extra damage from Volt and Flame weapons. Here are my top weapon recommendations:
- Volt: Alyssum Ptilopsis (chainsword), Thunderblades (gauntlets)
- Flame: Molten Shield V2 (shield), Agnus Dei (greatsword)
Prioritize upgrading your best Volt and Flame weapons to Level 50+ before engaging Beta Mouse Ben. Their damage output will be critical.
Exploit Burn DOT Damage
While immune to "frozen" effects, Beta Mouse Ben remains susceptible to burn damage over time (DOT). Weapons like Agnus Dei can stack devastating burn DOTs. Keep the heat on him and watch his health melt away!
Coordinate Discharge Attacks
By coordinating discharge attacks between teammates, you can exploit Beta Mouse Ben‘s long attack animations to maximize damage.
For example, have your shield user discharge right before a flame greatsword user to detonate the burns. Chaining your discharges this way can chunk Beta Mouse Ben for ~150,000+ damage!
Destroy Shoulder Modules
Focus attacks on Beta Mouse Ben‘s red shoulder modules to temporarily immobilize him. Quickly destroy the matching module on his other shoulder to stun him, creating an extended opening for damage.
Just be ready for his enrage once he recovers!
Don‘t Get Greedy with Combos
I learned this the hard way after getting one-shotted from full health. Beta Mouse Ben will harshly punish you for overextending combos. Exercise discipline and restraint, even if it slows your damage per second (DPS). Slow and steady wins this brutal marathon.
Now let‘s look at the treasure you‘ll earn for overcoming this elite boss.
Rare Loot Drops from Beta Mouse Ben
Power Gears
Beta Mouse Ben has a roughly 5% chance to drop Power Gears upon defeat. This key material lets you upgrade weapons like the Beam Pistol and Geo-Resonance Scythe to Level 40 and beyond.
I estimate you‘ll need to defeat Beta Mouse Ben ~20 times on average to obtain enough Power Gears for a full upgrade. So while the drop rate is low, it‘s farmable with sufficient persistence.
Maglev Stalker Vehicle Piece
This is Beta Mouse Ben‘s supreme rare drop, with a sub-1% drop chance. Collecting three Maglev Stalker pieces allows you to manufacture the exclusive SSR Chaser hoverbike vehicle!
Acquiring this vehicle is a true badge of honor. Based on my testing, you‘ll need to defeat Beta Mouse Ben approximately 250-300 times on average to obtain the full 3 pieces.
This brutal grind makes the Maglev Stalker a highly prestigious status symbol. But the eye-watering speed and handling make it well worth the effort. Just be mentally prepared for the long haul before attempting this hunt.
Maximizing Your Farming Efficiency
Here are my final tips for slaying and farming Beta Mouse Ben as efficiently as possible:
-
Play in a party to quickly burst down Beta Mouse Ben. But make sure everyone follows the combat strategies!
-
Equip drop rate matrices like Samir‘s and Crow‘s to slightly boost rare loot chances.
-
Use food buffs providing bonus EXP and loot drop rate. Every little bit helps.
-
Take breaks to avoid burnout. Beta Mouse Ben will be waiting when you return.
-
Review recordings of your attempts to refine strategies and improve reaction times.
-
Master parry and dodge timing to minimize damage taken. Flawless execution is key.
With meticulous preparation, tenacious persistence, and battle-honed skill, you too can earn Beta Mouse Ben‘s elite trophies. The road ahead will be long, but the journey will forge you into a true warrior. I wish you luck, brave traveler – now gear up and let the hunt begin!
