Strange no exp, no loot, evil eyes who die in one hit in EK

[DMN]

it either has extremely low hit points or it always dies in one hit. It drops nothing and gives no exp.

Confirmed classic. Do a quick search on ZAM and there are mentions. I think it is something like the Evil Eyes are really casting Eye of Zomm's that are named Evil Eye.

According to http://wiki.project1999.com/An_Evil_Eye_(Beholder%27s_Maze)
“Summons an evil eye pet to their aid. Cast Charm. There is occasionally a much lower level version that spawns, that is a wizard, not an enchanter. This version is likely level 1 or 2, as it died instantly to a 30 point nuke. The low level version has not been observed to drop any loot or coin.”

But the EK Evil Eye wiki page doesn’t mention the same phenomenon.

And though some evil eyes are wizards (LGuk), any that have a sword-and-shield pet are enchanters...who don’t get Eye of Zomm! *dramatic music intensifies*

Wiki page is not evidence.

You may be thinking of some of the low-level fish in Kedge Keep.

yup it casts this if you are anywhere near it when it instantly dies. only way to get rid of it is die or cure disease because it has infinite duration. nasty stuff

i guess its meant to be a "trapped" evil eye
