Here's my strategy to the deerclops, that works most of the time. Make 40+ healing food, and at least 2 sets of log armor and football helmets. (If you're playing or have a wigfrid, helms are better.) Because Deerclops tends to spawn at night (for me, at least.) Set down a few lanterns (i use 2 or 3, but i've made it with just 1)where you plan to fight him. Don't make campfires, as deerclops could destroy them. After the first warning, make it out of your base to an area far away from your base. If there's a hound wave, deal with the hounds first. Tank (or kite, to each their own) when deerclops is doing his swipe attack, dodge when he does his ice attack. Just a tip: don't fight near the ocean, as pengulls can spawn. They might kill deerclops, but they'll quickly eat his drops, including the eye.
