The Pirate Deadeye is a Hardmode enemy that spawns during the Pirate Invasion event. It appears similar to the Pirate Deckhand but comes armed with a blunderbuss that can fire bullets at the player, an eye patch, and slightly modified stats.

Notes

They shoot at quite a slow pace, and also with poor accuracy. An example of this is when they are in front of the player, the bullets often hit the ground.

Trivia

Their name Deadeye has a dual meaning, referring both to the term deadeye, or marksman, and to the fact that they have a "dead" eye and wear an eye patch. This is reflected in their Bestiary entry.
Since the Pirate Deadeye appears to have an eye patch while pointing either direction, he has eye patches on both eyes and is therefore blind.

The Bestiary entry for the Pirate Deadeye: "Nobody knows if 'Dead Eye' refers to their precise aim, or the fact that one of their eyes is indeed 'dead'... like their targets."
