Overview
One Baby Spider is a deceptively weak encounter in The Caves with only minimal HP. This is a setup fight: you are not meant to struggle against the baby spider itself. The real test begins the moment you kill it, as defeating One Baby Spider immediately triggers the full Spinnerette encounter.
The Trigger Mechanic
Do not kill One Baby Spider without first ensuring your party is in optimal condition. Heal your cats before the kill, use any items you have been saving, and position your cats in a strong defensive formation. The Spinnerette fight starts immediately upon the baby spider’s death with no break or transition screen.
Preparation Before the Kill
Use any healing abilities, revival items, or consumables before dealing the final blow. Position your tank at the front and your ranged or support cats at the back. Check your ability cooldowns and make sure your Cleric or healer is at full mana.
