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.
