Suspicious Looking Eye



The Suspicious Looking Eye is used for summoning the Eye of Cthulhu boss. It can be crafted at a Demon Altar at the cost of 6 Lens. You can only successfully summon the boss during the night. If the eye is used during the day nothing will happen.

Using a Suspicious Looking Eye while the Eye of Cthulhu has already been summoned by another Suspicious Looking Eye will result in the Player's immediate death. However, using the Suspicious Looking Eye during a natural occurence of the Eye of Cthulhu (Such as holding the Water Candle for long enough, breaking a Shadow Orb, or killing 20+ Demon Eyes) will result in fighting up to four Eyes of Cthulhu simultaneously.

Glitch (Confirmed)

After update v1.0.3 just wielding or scrolling over the eye at night will summon the boss.You may have to use one Suspicious Looking Eye on the server (this counts if another player on the server uses the eye) before this glitch will work, and then the Eye of Cthulhu will be able to be spawned without consuming the item, sometimes using one is not required and one will automatically spawn when scrolled over. This is a multiplayer glitch.

Trivia

 * The lens cost was lowered from 10 lens to 6 lens in patch 1.0.5.
 * The Suspicious Looking Eye looks similar to both the Servant of Cthulhu and the Demon Eye.
 * If you summon the Eye of Cthulhu then try to summon again you will die automatically.
