Number three is powerful. The 8th eye of a spider who lost one of his originals (8th working one, 9th in total) is just an eye. The THIRD eye of the same spider could be something special.

Re: Oh, the irony...
Yes it is very funny and all but "the third eye" should, of course, not be taken literally, as it is much like the "sixth sense".

Re: Oh, the irony...
I don't understand the confusion, the description SAYS he's got a 3rd eye painted on his shield... he just, um, paints better than most I guess )

Re: Oh, the irony...
It is funny. But the third eye is more psychic or spiritual than literal. If his fame continues, he'll get higher and higher precision and magic resistance.

Re: Oh, the irony...
It's not ironic at all. Are you trying to say that people who are blind have no eyes ? I'd like to see a proof of that. If I remember story correctly, these Agarthans are humans who descended beneath the surface, and their sight weakened from lack of use. So they still have eyes.

Re: Oh, the irony...
That specific Agarthan unit is actually supposed to have such abilities, if not to the heroic degree (see description in screenshot). So it's actually highly appropriate, even though it's a random event here, which is sort of ironic in itself (that the RNG gave out a thematically appropriate heroic ability).
