I wouldn't mind having the world-gen specifics too, that way I can get some unholy mass of the megabeasts I've picked up from mods and stuff.  Was it just the basic Standard-sized world-gen parameters with that seed?

Massive win.

*goes off to get slaughtered*



EDIT:
That was insanely awesome. This little depression off to the side of the road, surrounded be bones and armor, leading down into a multilevel twisting cave system, with the stairs to the bottom level covered in blood. I was so expecting to get ambushed in there somewhere, but when he does pop out he gives a two page speech...

If it wasn't in such confined spaces, archery or throwing would be my best bet, but down there? Drowning him sounds like the only real alternative. If only...

I wonder, could this cyclops somehow use a weapon along with it's shield? Could we give it a crossbow?

He'd have to wrestle the crossbow from someone (not very likely). The tricky part would be giving him the ammo.

I think an artifact mace would be pretty badass to give him.
EDIT:
Or another shield!

Pretty simple, really.  Just hold a ton of weapons in your hands when fighting him.  The chance for him to grab one will be significantly increased, and then it's just a matter of letting him take it.

I would say either mace or spear.

But what are the chances of him using wrestling versus shield bashing? And if we hold a ton of weapons, can we still use our shield? No chance of surviving long enough, unless a legendary shield user can handle this.

He's finally dead! Ultimate carnage!

I give a cookie to whoever manages to guess what brought down a shield-wielding cyclops.

YOU!?

Shield? Aero dynamic head, bat, fly? Rock?

The titan skeleton Strusnu Otsmou Ngustrekrosmnu stands before you.

"I am Strusnu Listentruth the Watchful Focus!  Slayer of Nod Holesuppers who failed the test of manhood!  Death of Specut Sistersseals leader of the Group of Heroes who moaned like a whore as I nailed him to a tree!  Master of Ijam Faithgraces high priest of the Order of Knots who lies dead now only an embarrassing memory!  Murderer of Oce Cutscribed leader of the Group of Shooting whose womanly death screams aroused my lust for blood!"

*takes a deep breath*

"Death of Ibu Heldtone whose potency I question after his ineffective thrusts!  Slayer of Nani Sterncamps leader of The Bright Confederacies who took up arms because she could not find a husband and met only death!  Master of Suwu Grottostood a fool whose claim of manhood was laughable!"

*another deep breath*

"Foe of Menung Swamnestle leader of the Society of Jails who wore her helmet like a veil to conceal her frightening appearance!  Vanquisher of Vafice Conjuredblossom whose insignificant name I struggle to recall!  Extinguisher of Amala Roserulers who waited submissively for her death!"

*Adventurer is reading a newspaper* Are you finished yet?

"PREPARE TO DIE!" *smash*



...Yeah.  It's too bad I couldn't use that speech to his disadvantage...

I'm talking about the bronze colossus. It's supposed to be made entirely of bronze.
But really he's just a softie inside. They all are really. When megabeasts come to your fort you never welcome them inside and give them a hug, do you. You heartless bastards...

Think more in terms of shield users.

Legendary shield user yourself, decent wrestler, stripped him down before struggling to crush him?

Socks.

Either that, or you somehow lucky managed to pierce his heart/ Abdominal Aorta/ripped out his throat.

And thus did the dream of dwarven antigravity fade away, not with a massive explosion or a flood of magma, but with a whimper.

I'm going to be depressed all day now.

I had no chance of ever defeating him in his best condition. Think more like an inexperienced shield user surrounded by foes.
