A cyclops (plural cyclopes) is a large one-eyed monster. They are known for dropping many alchable drops, so bringing nature and fire runes is helpful as it allows players to make longer trips and more money without banking or taking up inventory space.

Cyclopes may be killed as a substitute for hill giants on a Slayer task.

Defenders

Main article: Defender

Cyclopes in the Warriors' Guild have a rare chance of dropping a defender. These defensive weapons range from bronze to dragon and must be obtained in order, starting with bronze, by killing cyclopes on the top floor of the Warriors' Guild and then showing the defender to Kamfreena outside the chamber. Once a player earns the rune defender, they can enter the basement of the Warriors' Guild and kill the stronger cyclopes found there for a chance at the dragon defender. As this is located in the Warriors' Guild, cyclopes found in these areas are immune to Ranged and Magic attacks and must be fought with melee combat.

Drops

Warriors' Guild Rooftop, God Wars Dungeon, Catacombs of Kourend

Drop rates estimated based on 219,150 kills from the Drop Rate Project, unless otherwise cited.

The average Cyclops kill is worth 184.43.
