Useful Info

Shining eyes are dangerous floating monsters that deal no damage, but aggressively blast you with mutation-inflicting gaze attacks. Although these give you good mutations roughly 5% of the time, bad mutations are much, much more common. They are found in the Slime Pits, and can be summoned by a few enemies through the Summon Eyes spell.

Tips & Tricks

• Their attack requires a clear path to hit you. Mass Summonings spells like Demonic Horde or Shadow Creatures can shield you while your minions charge in to combat. Even Summon Butterflies can provide protection.
• An amulet of resist mutation renders them almost harmless (90% mutation resistance). Try not to have them in LOS without one.
• Airstrike can take them out quickly from behind a meat shield using smite-targeting, as can Portal Projectile.
