Spider

The Spider is an enemy in SkyBlock that naturally spawns in the Spider's Den and the player's Private Island. Its common drops are String and Spider Eyes. There are different variants of spiders that spawn in the Spider's Den, which include the Dasher Spider, Splitter Spider, and Weaver Spider. They can occasionally take the form of a Spider Jockey.

Dasher, Weaver, and Jockey Spiders
Players are advised to quickly kill them with the sword, try to maintain the high ground, and have their backs toward the wall to minimize the chances of getting knocked off and taking fall damage.

Splitter Spiders and the Brood Mother
These are similar to Dasher, Weaver, and Jockey spiders, but note that these spiders will spawn more monsters upon being killed. Splitter Spiders will spawn two silverfish and Brood Mother will spawn some cave spiders. These swarms of silverfish can be overwhelming and knock players off the map, so try not to fight many Splitter Spiders in the same area. If you do get overwhelmed, a good strategy is to use an AOE attack such as the golem sword's ability or the staff of the rising sun.

Dasher Spider


"Those Dashing spiders are pretty obnoxious. I find a well-place arrow can help with that."

- Haymitch

The Dasher spider is a type of spider. It launches itself towards the player, damaging them in the process. They have the lowest health of all the spiders in the Spider's Den.

Splitter Spider
The Splitter Spider is another type of spider. It acts like a normal spider, but when killed, it will release two Silverfish to attack the player.

Weaver Spider
The Weaver Spider is the third type of spider. It frequently shoots out webs that deal damage to players. Some webs may be left floating on the ground as a visible item, but will still damage the player.

Spider Jockey
The Spider Jockey is the fourth type of spider. It spawns with a Skeleton riding its back. The Jockey Skeleton shoots Silverfish at the player. If the skeleton is killed, the spider attacks like a normal spider. If the spider is killed, the Skeleton will keep shooting Silverfish. The Spider Jockey shares the same health as the Splitter Spider.

Voracious Spider
The voracious spider is the fifth type of spider. It spawns on the upper layers of the spider's den. It has the second-highest health of all the spiders, boasting. It uses only conventional melee attacks. Beware; the melee attacks can do significant damage to low-tier players.

Brood Mother
The Brood Mother is the sixth type of spider. It spawns every 1 hour at the very top of the Den and requires either Jump Boost Potions, Ender Pearls, well-timed Grappling Hooks, Aspect of the End, or by using Travel Scroll to Spider's Den Top of Nest to reach its spawn location. It has and drops the Spider Talisman and the Luxurious Spool. It has the highest health of all the types of spiders, excluding the ones from Slayer quests.
