The Broodmother is a hostile Mini-Boss that can be found in the Spider's Den.

It can also spawn on ☀ Stranded islands.

Spawning

[edit | edit source]

The Broodmother spawns at the very top of the Spider Mound. It will spawn exactly 10 minutes after the time the previous Broodmother is killed.

  • Slain: Between 10-9 minutes left.
  • Dormant: Between 9-6 minutes left.
  • Soon: Between 6-3 minutes left.
  • Awakening: Between 3-1 minutes left.
  • Imminent: Less than 1 minute left.

Behavior

[edit | edit source]

The Broodmother acts like a normal Spider, attacking any nearby players.

The Broodmother spawns four or five Cave Spiders on death. This is the only place they spawn on Public Islands.

Trivia

[edit | edit source]
  • The Broodmother is a very weak boss, often compared in general difficulty to the Revenant Horror Tier I.
  • Killing the Broodmother for the first time gives the Achievement "A good spider is a dead spider", worth 10 Achievement points.
  • Damage to the Broodmother is capped at 300 per hit for most weapons.
  • The Broodmother, unlike other bosses, can appear in a Runic version, which gives it 24000 Health.
  • When waiting for the Broodmother to spawn, it is recommended to wear a Slime Hat, mount a Rock Pet or possess an Intimidation Artifact, to avoid being pushed off the cliff by Spider Jockeys, Silverfish or other Spiders.
  • In ☀ Stranded mode, Broodmother spawns with 100000 Health, but has the damage cap removed.
