Last time i tried this in EA with i think Level 4. And the Queen was rather easy as you can burn the Webs shes hanging from, but i wasnt down there since release so i dont know if that changed

I was able to beat them by burning the webs while they were standing on them... after the fall, the mini boss took solid damage - maybe 30 or so points. Other than that, I used grease and fire to kill them :) Good luck!

lvl3 is more than enough to kill the phase spiders. I use thunderwave to push the queen down the pit.

Way we did it. I hate spiders, so I destroyed all her egg clutches with my bow. No tiny spooders, except the one I missed. Knock the matriach off the web, each time is like 40ish damage depending, can use alchemist fire too for extra toastiness. Then just have a tank goad or aggro the others while u wittle em down

I got 2 tips for you!

in the goblin village, there is 3 ogres that you can hire for 500 gold (or a very persuasive check). Call them to help you during the fight.

I have not tested myself, but I've seen someone using Gale's thunder spell to push the big spider down the chasm.

This game force you to use your creativity when the odds aren't in your favor, so there is always a way to win :)

If you convinced or paid the ogres to work for you, summon them for the fight and let them duke it out, the queen will most likely kill them (which is ideal anyway) and then you can kill her after she is weakened.

If she's on the webs you can destroy them to deal massive fall damage to her, one fall can take off as much as 1/3rd of her healthbar.

get your stealthest ranged character be all sneaky like and destroy all the eggs after your done that destroy one of the web walk ways that the matriarch is walking on (fire arrows are your friend regular shots work too) she'll fall taking 30 or more damage, have gale use dagger storm, and astarion's sneak attacks and use a good tank or ranger pets and caster familers to surround and threaten the matriarch and pray to god you can kill her before she goes all barbarian rage on your tookus

if youre lv 3, steal some gunpowder barrel and burn the web, put gunpowder barrel beneath the drop as it easier to sneak down there
grease+fire or create water +twinned chromatic orb is your friend here

you'll miss out on a caster robe off the big Beerch's corpse. really good for a poison build.

It can be a tough fight. During the first time in EA I spent quite a while in this fight. Just try out different strategies. Oh, and make a save just before it.

I did manage to kill them in ea but i had to use the ogres and it was a hard fight i barely won. Just wondering at what lvl it becomes a cake walk

I used a stealthy character to go around and blow up the various groups of spider egg clutches. You can use throwables like alchemist fire or simply shoot each one with range. helps avoid being swarmed by spiderlings

defeated her on 2nd attempt, also lvl 3 tactician
stealth on, turn based combat on, opened up by destroying webs she was standing on, while she was still in the air - ranged stealth attacks, when she finally fell down, enemies were surprised, so another round of attacks and she died in the next round
