You are fighting mining machinery.

You can't tell if there's a mind behind this clockwork mining machine that's driving it to attack you, or if it simply is under the erroneous impression that you're a bank of valuable minerals.
Your opponent attacks ...

Hit messages:

• It hits you with its sonic drill. Which totally sounds like a sci-fi thing, but is really actually just a thing. (sonic) damage
• Sixteen tons and what does it get? A tunnel collapsing on its enemies, which you have to admit is better than most places would give their mining machinery.
• It mines you until tiny cubes of hero start breaking off.

It hits you for X damage.

Critical hit message:

Your opponent has a critical hit! It hits you for X damage.

Miss messages:

• It briefly catches you with its sonic drill, but you're able to escape before you get any bad vibrations.
• Sixteen tons and what does it get? A ceiling collapse, which you're able to dodge, leaving the machinery temporarily pinned.
• It tries to mine you, but gets distracted by a cubic diamond (not to be mistaken for cubic zirconia, which wouldn't be worth much, or a cubicle diamond, which is the only substance harder than asking your boss for a raise).
