How to beat Spider Queen
The Spider Queen is a mini-boss that charges, spits webs and fills the arena with her brood.
Egg Sacs lobs three sacs that burst after a moment into a spray of webs, so walk away from the landing spots as soon as they land. Threads fires four fixed beams across the room that slow you, and the slowdown is the real danger, because it pins you for the next volley. Step over a beam only when you must, and never stand in one.
The rest of her kit is a charge, a brood summon and cocoons. Kill the small spiders quickly so they do not chase you around the arena.
Tips: move early, before a beam lights up, and keep the fight in open ground. If a thread slows you, do not try to run around it; step out of the beam along the shortest line and reset. Fight at a distance so a charge always has to cross open space.
Reading the telegraphs
- Every attack is telegraphed on the ground before it lands. The color tells you what it does: orange burns, red is a heavy blow, gray slows, dark blue freezes, green poisons, purple is shadow magic.
- Shapes tell you where to stand: a circle is an area, a row of dots or a lane is a line attack, a fan of lanes is a cone, and a ring with a gap means escape through the gap. The fill shows the time left before it hits.
