Spirits of Vexation may additionally drop Normal Items, Unidentified Items, Emeralds, Powders, and Potions of Healing.

Location
Spirits of Vexation do not spawn naturally. Instead, they are created by Sacrificial Altars which are located in a cave in Time Valley.

Tips

 * The many Dark Cultists that inhabit the cave can be a significant nuisance while fighting the Spirit at lower levels. The level 20 Cultists only attack with their spears in melee range, while the level 18 Cultists use a fast ranged attack, as well as being able to use the Heal spell on themselves and their allies. After being killed, however, they usually respawn quite slowly.
 * The Sacrificial Altar does not respawn naturally, so if you wish to farm the Spirit for the Vexing Set, you must leave and reload the area after each kill, making the process very time-consuming.
 * If seeking out the Vexing Set, the Dark Cultists will also rarely drop a component; however, the Spirit itself has a much higher drop-rate.
 * An offshoot of the cave the Spirit is found in, guarded by two level 18 Cultists, contains a Tier III and a Tier IV Loot Chest.

Trivia

 * The Spirit of Vexation's name and appearance are based on the Vex, a mob from vanilla Minecraft.
 * The Minecraft Vex also turns red when it attacks.
 * The word "vexation" means annoyance, frustration or worry.
 * Dark Cultists are also found surrounding the Temporal Rift, another bonus miniboss found in Time Valley. It also drops Dark Aura. Dark Cultists can also spawn in the Ravine Village, located in the Pigmen's Ravines.
