| A spider's web. The spider who left it must have been huge, as it seems to be made for trapping [player's species] rather than flies. |
A web is a trap which ensnares anything which steps onto it as though it were hit by a throwing net. The victim becomes entangled and cannot move or attack until they slip out of the web. The main difference between a web and a net is that webs are not destroyed after their victims escape.
Certain creatures are immune to webs:
- All creatures with the Web immune flag
- All insubstantial creatures
- Players in Spider Form
Webs can be found in certain rare Dungeon vaults and the Crypt, but they are mostly found in huge numbers all over the Spider's Nest.
Strategy
More so than most traps, webs can be used to your advantage against careless enemies. Characters, especially Short Blades users, can deal preposterous damage to an enemy before it is able to escape.
