Deerclops



Deerclops is a boss monster from the base game that has been radically tweaked as to deserve their own page.
One of his new Drops, the Cursed Antler, can only be equipped by touching the Melancholic Skull to acquire the Veteran's Curse.
He will now spawn earlier than usual. If world Settings are unchanged, during the night of day 28 instead of day 30 normally.
Deerclops can spawn in Caves. If the player(s) is in caves during Winter, and Deerclops is able to spawn, the warning for it will be heard and soon after, he will crash down into the caves, causing boulders to fall when he enters.
Mutations[edit | edit source]

Combo[edit | edit source]
Combo Clops spawns with 4500 HP. He will sometimes do an uppercut attack instead of it's regular attack, this will Knock the player back, but won't add any freezing. At around half health, Deerclops will do a lunge after the uppercut animation.
Aura[edit | edit source]
Aura spawns with 3500 HP. Sometimes He Will put his claws in the ground to channel an ice wall circle around himself and areas of freezing within, there is always a small safe space for the player to stand. The ice walls can be mined to escape, with some spawning already cracked, being mined faster than others. They also have a chance to spawn 5 Freeze areas on his regular attack.
Tips[edit | edit source]
- Due to the random nature of mutations it can be difficult to prepare each year.
- Deerclop's insanity aura is way more dangerous in uncompromising due to the changes to Shadow Creatures.
- A Dapper Vest or a Thulecite Suit can be worn to reduce the insanity aura by 70% or 40% respectively.
