Useful Info

Orb spiders are obnoxious and dangerous arachnids that tend to avoid direct combat with you, lingering at the edge of your line of sight and hurling Orbs of Destruction at you whenever you stop pursuing them. The fact that they tend to appear in areas filled with web traps only makes them more of a threat. They can be found in the Spider's Nest, particularly on the lower floors.

Spells: Orb of Destruction (8d7), Cantrip

Tips & Tricks

Orb spiders can deal a good amount of damage, but they are quite fragile. Use ranged attacks to kill them fast.
