Give the Baleful Eye a clear shot at the doorway

Position the Baleful Eye where it can fire toward the approach to your treasure hall. The Malignus press kit describes the Eye firing rays toward the door as adventurers break in. Keep the approach clear and station minions where they can engage ahead of the Eye. The goal is to keep the boss far enough back to use the ray.

Build around the ray and keep a close-range fallback

A creator preview identified an Annihilation Ray and a corrosive bite. Set up around the ray if you want the Eye to hold a ranged position. The bite gives you another option if an adventurer reaches the boss. Decide where you can move the Eye if the doorway stops being a useful line of attack.

Choose upgrades for what you need in a fight

The preview mentioned longer reach, Petrifying Gaze, and Quickened Beam. Consider reach or beam speed when you want to improve the Eye’s ranged role. Look at Petrifying Gaze if you want a control option to complement it. Compare the descriptions shown in your build before spending points, since the preview does not establish an exact cost or unlock sequence.
