Ancient Defiled Cyclops

The Ancient Defiled Cyclops is a pre-Hardmode enemy that rarely spawns in the Defiled Wastelands. The Ancient Defiled Cyclops takes on the appearance of one of the older iterations of the Defiled Cyclops, standing roughly 8-tiles tall. With the exception of life regen and any of the noises Defiled enemies typically make, it behaves the exact same as regular Defiled Cyclopes. Ancient Defiled Cyclopes are a good source for Ancient Defiled armor as the armor set is 38 times more likely to be dropped from it than other Defiled enemies.

Trivia

- A far-older sprite for the Defiled Cyclops can be found in the mod's Github repository.

Lore

- Upon defeating an Ancient Defiled Cyclops once, the following will appear in the Journal:

"It started with emptiness. The memories collected can be felt, but there only remains empty void. Lacking information to inform us. So disturbed we all were as forgetters of past lives; to know our experiences now made us nothing."
This can be found in order of relevance in The Defiled lore page.
