Unlike the last cyclopes you fought, this CIRCLE will trigger a button-press mini game that, if completed, will reward you with a Cyclops Eye.Ī second cyclops and two beast lords follow the death of the first cyclops. When the CIRCLE appears over the head of the cyclops, engage the beast with a grapple. We also found that double jumping over its head and repeatedly using the L1 + CIRCLE attack worked surprisingly well. Fight as you fought the previous cyclopes, attacking with quick SQUARE strikes and canceling into evasive rolls to avoid the powerful smashes. With the beast lord defeated, turn to the cyclops. Focus first on killing the beast lord to make sure he doesn't hop back onto the cyclops. To knock the beast lord off, rush up to the cyclops and press CIRCLE, and then twirl the LEFT ANALOG to knock the little creature off.
The cyclops alone is tough to fight, but with the beast lord on its back it becomes even more of a danger. The beast lord hops onto the back of the cyclops and eggs it on, creating one menacing duo. Immediately upon entering the ruins ahead, another beast lord appears and calls forth a giant cyclops.
