Loot
Every cyclops carries:
- Gold: about 320–500 in total (from its "Rich" and "Average" loot)
It may also carry:
- A magic weapon, armor piece or shield (up to 6 chances, from about 20% down to 0.5% each)
- A musical instrument (about 1.4% or less)
- A level 3 treasure map (1% chance)
Carving
Use a blade on the corpse to get:
- 4 raw ribs
Location
- The Deceit brazier: double-clicking it from within 2 tiles summons one creature picked at random from a list of about 90, and this is one of them. The brazier warns players who step next to it ("Heed this warning well, and use this brazier at your own peril"). It works once every 15 minutes and places the creature within 5 tiles. The summoned creature is set to attack the closest target, even if it would normally leave you alone, and it stays within 5 tiles of the brazier.
Tips
- Its punches do 7–23 damage, so keep your hit points topped up in melee.
- With no ranged attacks at all, archers and mages can wear it down from a distance.
- It drops a level 3 treasure map 1% of the time and carries Rich and Average loot.
- Carve it for 4 raw ribs.
