This page is up to date (v1.3).

Why Idle This?

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Lair of the Spider Queen
    is mainly cleared for the Royal Toxins Spear as it provides very generous damage boosts, and also provides an additional damage boost for when the enemy is poisoned.
  • The only other drop you can get from the dungeon is Spider Queen Eggs used for making the Spider Summoning Tablets.
  • The pet from the dungeon, Webbie also reduces your attack speed by 0.1s, which is incredibly useful in many ways.

Dungeon Mechanics

Like most dungeons,

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Lair of the Spider Queen

has many weaker enemies before sending the strongest enemy at you, which in this case is Spider Queen. Normally, you would pick a specific combat style to fight the enemies to get the full advantage of the combat triangle, but in this dungeon, you can't. The Spider Queen has a unique mechanic where they will have a random combat triangle each time. Similarly, the 19 weaker enemies before it are randomised in a way which again, makes the combat styles random. This part isn't very important since the heavy hitter in the dungeon is the last enemy. Since the random combat style gimmick is the only reason this dungeon is difficult to many, it is actually rather simple to manually clear.

Agility

Idle Gear

This particular build only works in standard mode. This exact setup is not completely safe in hardcore or adventure mode due to the harder Combat Triangle

Always make sure to double-check your setup in the Combat Simulator.

Disclaimer: Gem slot is not required but recommended.

Ancient Relics Guide

This is the first TotH.svgThrone of the Herald Expansion dungeon where an idle setup for the first clear is near impossible. Stats will be capped at 108 and you'll need 110 for the next big upgrades. Seeing as focusing on skilling should be avoided as much as possible, dungeon/dropped gear is as good as it gets.

You will need to Manually Eat this dungeon and the suggested setup does assume this.

Tested with Relics:

    - 1,2,3,4,5,Master
