Make sure not to get hit by the web it shoots out because this is a death sentence. The best way to fight the spider solo is to bait out the beam attack then sprint to its other head and attack it.
He has a number of pyromancies including Firestorm (does very little to the boss) and Fireball (very effective if hits the head). His attacks are quick and lethal, very handy for all the minion spiders as well as getting through the boss itself. Unlike other times, Ray is summoned as a Phantom rather than a Shade, and so can be brought all the way to the boss room to help form a team of four. (When I had him and Boyd I got to about 2 hits off, but was killed)īashful Ray can also be summoned earlier in the level, in the room with double doors next to Weaponsmith Ornifex's workshop. Manhunter O'Harrah (SotFS only) Can be summoned in the room with all the poisonous spiders hanging from the ceiling, on the left, and is very effective. His summon sign is located on the ground floor of the spider-infested area, behind a few columns against the opposite wall from the fog gate. No changes to souls awarded beyond Bonfire Intensity 8.Īshen Knight Boyd is available as a summon for this fight.She will use both front legs to stab the player into the ground for a large amount of damage She will jump into the air, and attempt to crush the player upon landing. It is possible to avoid this attack by running towards her left or right set of legs. She will steady herself on the ground, raise her body and quickly thrust forward to attack the player. It is possible to evade the attack by running straight away, or dodging to the right or left.Ĭan shoot a large amount of acid towards the player.Ĭan also use both heads of boss to spit some acid in front of them while stomping around, corroding player equipment. When standing in front of one of the heads the spider will open its pincers and attempt to bite, doing a great deal of damage. Shoots several web projectiles that cause the player to walk slowly and with difficulty. Although it's hard to outrun, it is possible to roll under it. This will also keep the baby spiders grouped up generally out of the way. Always running counterclockwise and staying closer to the outside of her legs will make outrunning the beam easy. Shoots out a beam in a counterclockwise arc that deals a great deal of damage. This attack may be followed by web being shot out which greatly impairs movement speed if hit. Area boss of Brightstone Cove Tseldora.But What could the Duke have wanted with such an abomination, and what madness could have possessed him to allow the destruction of his own domain.? Apparently Duke Tseldora's pet and more than likely the progenitor of the swarms of Parasite Spiders which overran and destroyed Brightstone Cove. A monstrous two-headed spider which serves as the Keeper of the Writhing Ruin.NG+ any damage you do to her outside the boss room will carry over to the encounter in the boss room.In an early encounter of a subsequent Cycle: If caused enough damage (33%) to it, its HP-bar will disappear, and any more damage attempted to cause to it, will not count, and it will retreat only after about 35s.Some weapons can attack around/through Freja's blocks.Try to avoid this while moving underneath her, especially when you're being chased by small spiders Walking against Freja's legs will slow you down for a split second.However, if both heads are decapitated, an armor-piercing weapon can sometimes deal damage to the boss from the positions where the heads were prior to being chopped off. If your weapon is too weak, you might actually decapitate both of her heads and leave her alive/invincible at the same time, resulting in you having to restart the boss battle. You will need a weapon with a fairly high damage output for this fight.If a substantial amount of hits are done to one head during a short period of time, the head will fall off and will be untargetable for the rest of the fight.These smaller spiders can be killed off at the beginning of battle and will not re spawn for a short time, allowing easier combat with the boss. Each of these smaller spiders has ~200hp. There are smaller spiders that are constantly spawning in the room while the boss is alive. It is possible to cut a head off during the fight, causing her to be staggered for a few seconds before she does a leg stomp. Found in Brightstone Cove Tseldora, her shell proves to be highly resistant to damage, leaving the heads as the only vulnerable points for attack.
