How To Summon The Deerclops

Deer Thing Method

The most reliable way to summon Deerclops is by crafting and using the Deer Thing, a consumable summoning item.

Required Materials:

  • 3 Flinx Fur: Dropped by Snow Flinxes in the Underground Snow biome.
  • 1 Lens: Dropped by Demon Eyes at night.
  • 5 Crimtane Ore or 5 Demonite Ore: Mined in the Crimson or Corruption.

Combine the required materials at a Demon Altar or Crimson Altar to craft the Deer Thing, then use it in a Snow or Ice biome at any time of day to summon the Deerclops.

Natural Spawn Method

The Deerclops may spawn automatically under these conditions:

  • Snow Biome: You must be in a Snow biome during midnight.
  • Blizzard: There must be an ongoing blizzard.
  • Player Requirements: At least one player has either 200 maximum health or 9 or more defense.

Note, It will not spawn naturally if there are NPCs too close to the player.
