The Change Of Deerclops


Recommended Posts

Good info!
Actually I like the new deerclops, I mean by now we all know deerclops's old kiting pattern and this feels like pretty much a nerf but I remember back when I was still learning the game that being hit by invisible ice shards around him felt really unfair. This change made him much more new player friendly TBH.

Oh. So that was it.

I usually play Wortox and very often use Deerclops to clear that spider quarry setpiece in surface, do u know that one? right next one of the deserts, the boulders and tons of nests next to each other? right

So in the night of day 30 i always heavily farm silk for beequeen and clear that setpiece with aoe damage is SO EASY. Just aggroin him close enough to kill the spiders while im hopin around and  breakin the nests with a ridiculous amount of souls to keep jumping and dodgin his strikes. 

That can be tricky but if play it right can be this good:

I dunno if it was just cuz Clops was in winter feast form with the laser but... last time i tried it the spiders OBLITERATED HIM and i was like gasping while watched the eyeball bein ate for the very first time since i started to use this method...

 

My point is just one - feels bad xD

Yep certainly  Normally deerclops would just adjust his attack to who hit him last  but now with this new method  his attack only hits slightly around him like right up on him
because they also took his aoe out which would do really good against groups like you say here

deerclops had an aoe hitbox around him about 1.5 berry bush in radius and this is what would hit most entities  and groups that would attack him.

Wait wait wait... so he does still have AOE attacks but just in a much smaller radius right?? I generally lure him to my little Four Nest Spider Island area every Winter and let him destroy the nests (they are always level 3) or fight the Spider Queens if they spawn and net a ton of spider drops then his drops at the end by finishing him off. 

I'm on console so not sure if all his new changes have hit as of yet but I'm pretty sure I did this in the last few days and it still worked. Its going to be sad if I can no longer employ this technique as it is extremely profitable, tons of spider drops and Clops is super easy to take down at the end (not that he isn't fairly easy anyway but this cuts down resources/time/armor needed dramatically).
