Mensix Mining Facility
The Mensix Mining Facility is the Mustafar group instance set inside the planet’s deepest active mining complex. Like the Avatar Platform, it extends the Trials of Obi-Wan expansion content from the Champion of Mustafar epic arc into group-instance territory, with mining-themed phases and named bosses tied to the facility’s operations.
The fight
The fight takes place inside the Mensix Mining Facility on Mustafar. Recommended combat level is 85+. Faction is irrelevant. Restoration’s recommended group size is eight. Entry is via the Mustafar Mining Complex starport hub. Exact lockout varies by source — verify in-game.
Group composition
Underground mining geometry rewards methodical clears and sustained healing more than burst:
- 1–2 tanks: Jedi or Pikeman handles named foremen and bosses; the second tank trades cooldowns on the deep-shaft fights.
- 2 healers: two Medic or Combat Medic, since the run is long and underground geometry limits kiting.
- 3–5 DPS: Commando area-of-effect on mining-droid waves is highly valued; Rifleman, Pistoleer, Carbineer, and Bounty Hunter fill the rest.
- Buff support: an Entertainer (Dancer or Musician) should pre-buff. Buffs should weight toward heat and energy mitigation, consistent with Mustafar’s environment.
Strategy
Specific phase mechanics are inconsistently documented and vary by patch — verify in-game. General principles:
- Hold corridors: like the ISD II, the mining facility funnels mob waves through narrow corridors. Engage at chokes.
- Mining-droid priority: combat-droid waves include healers; interrupt them on cycle.
- Don’t fall into the shaft: the facility’s deep-shaft sections are unforgiving of positional knock-back.
- Methodical pace: the facility is long but tractable; rushing creates wipes.
Rewards
Mensix Mining Facility rewards heroic tokens (specific token name varies by source documentation), Mustafar-themed décor, mining-themed cosmetic gear, and rare schematic shards tied to the Trials of Obi-Wan content. Specific loot tables are not multi-source attested in detail — verify in-game.
