In Normal, it summons Murloc Tidehunters every 30 seconds, and in Quests every 60 seconds.

  • 4000 health
  • Pierce: 130 Elemental damage, 10 range, 1.8 seconds attack speed, 4-wide rectangular damage area

General strategy

Almost everything you face deals physical damage, which makes Armored tanks strong, especially Footmen who can also soak all of the glaives from a Huntress. Another excellent Huntress counter is Prowler, which can charge at Huntress and take it down quickly with its physical damage.

You want to take the Tower and also maintain control of the Meeting Stone to force Murk-Eye to attack from further away. Unbound minis are useful for grabbing the Meeting Stone when it is unattended.
