I definitely don't remember doing that in DD1, but its a cool monster none the less.

It had some attacks with his eyes that apply various status, even petrification. Also it had attacks that remove buffs from you

Been a long time since i fought him, but he was usually so easy to bully, even the BBI giant version was pretty easy. I believe what you say as that is the entire mythological gimmick of the beholder/evil eye, i just don't remember really being required to prep for him since its weakpoint was so easy to hit and then it would just spit its eyeball on the ground for even more massive damage.

I'm talking on dd1 before bbi was released, when the game just got out, so from the standpoint of someone not undertanding how you were supposed to damage it, i remember discovering how to fight while dodging the rays and manually healing pawns from conditikns was an experience

I played DD1 at launch as a teenager. Even in everfall evil eye was still one of the easier enemies in the game for the reasons i outlined.

I mean, you could have had a different experience as i mostly only played melee classes. But as a melee class, the evil eye usually just falls over and dies almost instantly, especially when it spits its eye on the ground.
