The {{ZoneIcon|Lair of the Spider Queen}} features a completely unique mechanic where the boss, {{MonsterIcon|Spider Queen}}, has a completely random attack style each time she spawns. The minions in the dungeon also have a similar mechanic as their spawn pattern will be completely random, so expect to face all 3 combat styles in this dungeon. {{Skill|Ranged}} is preferred for killing minions in the lead up to the boss as {{Skill|Ranged}} has the lowest overall DR penalty against its weak style (-25% DR against {{Skill|Attack|Melee}}) compared to something like {{Skill|Attack|Melee}} (which has a -50% DR penalty against {{Skill|Magic}} enemies). The boss can comfortably be dispatched with appropriate late game gear (needed to out-dps her healing) and the corresponding style, so the main difficulty of this dungeon is simply being present when the boss spawns in order to switch to the correct gear loadout. | The {{ZoneIcon|Lair of the Spider Queen}} features a completely unique mechanic where the boss, {{MonsterIcon|Spider Queen}}, has a completely random attack style each time she spawns.

The pet, {{PetIcon|Webbie}}, has an always-useful -0.1s [[Attack Interval|attack speed]] bonus and is therefore worth grinding out. The sole chest loot from this dungeon is the extremely powerful {{ItemIcon|Royal Toxins Spear}}, which will be the best {{Skill|Attack|Melee}} weapon available until the very end game. This spear gives better {{SC}} income than any other option when used for {{Skill|Slayer|Elite Slayer}}, and has better DPS than {{ItemIcon|Ultima Godsword}}, {{ItemIcon|FrostSpark 1H Sword}} and {{ItemIcon|Ethereal Greataxe}}. This item is a hard requirement for {{ZoneIcon|Golden Cloud Mountains}}. | ||
