Monster

Mother Cinderweb

An ash spider the size of a cart, queen of the Cinderweb Hollow (level 11). Lays egg sacs, spits webs and pounces on whoever keeps their distance.

Emberfall’s miners bricked up the Hollow after the third crew went in and only their lanterns came out, wrapped in silk. Behind the bricks Mother Cinderweb has been busy. The webs there are warm to the touch, and they hum.

Tips

  • Break the egg sacs as soon as they land: each one that hatches lets out three Cinderlings.
  • Ranged heroes: when a ring appears under you, move. She pounces on whoever stands farthest away.
  • Her web spit is a slow fan of three. Step into the gap.
  • Drop rates are per kill for each hero nearby. Magic find raises the rarity of gear, not these chances.
