Cyclops (AC ph) in OOT too strong
 

I recall camping the AC in OOT for jboots as a solo level 50 warrior with not so great gear.

Today I tried to do this with much better gear than I had at level 50 on live and got murdered by the ph, a cyclops. I haven't tried fighting the AC yet.

What should the cyclops max hit for? Is this why it was too hard?

I tried to do research on this, but didn't come up with much.

Not that this holds much water for extreme validity... But I know for certain that I was capable of soloing it at level 46 or 47 on live with my Magician like 8 years ago. Not sure how many times I had to chain cast pets and fire shield them, but I know I camped it for a few days straight while listening to mp3s on winamp and making shitty progs in visual basic 3.0 EE...

That cyclops and the seafury cyclops used to hit for the same amount of damage as regular cyclops did. Just depended on the level of the cyclops. I believe it was +2 damage for each level. They just had a far greater number of HPs. At least this is how I remember it. I believe their max hits ranged from 68 to 76

Just did this for a few hours tonight. Im a 44 magician and my brother 44 enchanter did it. He is stupid hard compared to seafuries.

Another issue I had -- I camped the AC several times on live back around 1999-2001 eras, I always did the OOT spawn. I recall it being the only spawn on the island (not including the vendor), static and 6 minute respawn. Here it is a 22 minute respawn and it is a HUGE undercon.

I am uncertain id be able to solo it as a 44 mage (not including chaining pets...)

I know for a fact that this was not anywhere near a 22 minute spawn in the past.

Pending update:

-AC/ph will have 6 min respawn times.
-cyclops ph stats adjusted. it was too hard.
-the AC in OOT will always be level 40.
-seafury cyclops stats adjusted. some were way too hard.

i remember cyclops ph being harder than ac
dunno if thats right, but seems like it

I distinctly remember the AC in OOT being harder than the AC in SRo due to the fact he was a static spawn with a PH.

I definitely soloed the camp as a 39 Necro on live and had no issues.

the AC in OOT is harder, but he's on par with seafuries. Where the Sro one is ~level 30 mobs
