Brood Mother

The Brood Mother is a hostile that can be found in the Spider's Den.

Spawning
The Brood Mother spawns at the very top of the Spider's Den. It will spawn exactly 60 minutes after the time the previous Brood Mother is killed.

The Brood Mother acts like a normal spider, attacking any nearby players.

The Brood Mother spawns four or five Cave Spiders on death. This is the only place they spawn on a public island.

Trivia

 * The Brood Mother is a very weak boss, often compared in general difficulty to the Revenant Horror.
 * Killing the Brood Mother for the first time gives the Achievement "A good spider is a dead spider", worth 10 Achievement points.
 * The Brood Mother, unlike other bosses, can appear in a Runic version, which gives it 24,000 base.
 * When waiting for the Brood Mother to spawn, it is recommended to wear a Slime Hat or equip a Rock Pet, to avoid being pushed off the cliff by skeleton jockeys, silverfish or spiders.
