Recommended Items
- Gloves of Acceleration
- Watcher's Whisper
- Iron Claymore
- Blessed Bracers
Gloves of Acceleration are extremely cheap and you can buy 2 before the match starts. This will increase your attack speed by a total of +30%. This allows you to farm enemy soldiers faster at the start of the match and also gives you a small edge over other players who didn't buy items.
Watcher's Whisper is available as an upgrade to the Gloves of Acceleration, these are costly but definitely worth your while, each increases your attack speed by 60% and has a chance to reduce the enemy's movement speed. The combination of increased attack speed and reduction in enemy's movement speed makes the Watcher's Whisper a must for player killing.
Iron Claymore provides a high bonus to Physical Attack which means Polyphemous will be able to do more damage per hit.
Blessed Bracers are available as an upgrade to the Iron Claymore, these are extremely pricey but the increased Physical Attack bonus as well as the extra HP that it provides makes this a great item to have.
With this item combination of speed and damage boosts, Polyphemous will bring down enemy players in seconds. This item combination is also ideal against towers and hordes of enemy soldiers.
Item Purchase Strategy
- Buy 2 Gloves of Acceleration before the match starts.
- Upgrade both Gloves of Acceleration to Watcher's Whispers.
- Buy 2 Iron Claymores.
- Buy 1 Watcher's Whisper.
- Buy 1 Iron Claymore.
- Upgrade all Iron Claymores to Blessed Bracers.
We have found this strategy to be the most effective as it maintains a balance of attack speed and damage while maximising the limited gold that is available.

Very lame guide. The author is trying to make a damage dealer out of a tank. Cyclops is the support class. He chases or lures and stuns, dds kill. My choice is defence gear only.
