Useful Info
Giant eyeballs, one of the deadliest eyeball-type monsters, are harmless on their own. However, they are capable of paralyzing you for several turns with their smite-targeted gaze attack, rendering you nearly defenseless against any other monsters in the area. They can be found in the early Dungeon, the Vaults, and the Slime Pits; and they can also be summoned by monsters with the Summon Eyeballs spell.
Tips & Tricks
- Unlike some other gaze attacks, they don't require line of sight to gaze at you. Magic resistance provides no protection against them, and they can still gaze at you even if confused. The only surefire ways to protect yourself from their gaze are to be a follower of Jiyva or wear an amulet of stasis. You are also rendered immune to further paralysis for 1-3 turns after a state of paralysis ends, but that is in no way a reliable defense.
- Giant eyeballs are thankfully fragile, easily one-shotted by most mid-level characters. Unfortunately, they can be extremely dangerous if you have monsters blocking you from attacking them. Airstrike is almost guaranteed to take them out in one shot, making it ideal for picking them off. The various Bolt spells are also very effective.
- If you don't have a means of killing them quickly, try using a scroll of fear; chasing it off temporarily will give you time to deal with its allies without risk of sudden paralysis. A scroll of fog will also help by breaking line of sight, giving you time to take out closer enemies or escape.
