This is why I'm glad the rail nerf happened, people got too used to playing the game like that, they never learned how to properly counter the monsters.

Anyways, the Bunker Spider is very easy to deal with. Get a shovel, and just smack it while walking backwards. The spider is fairly slow so you can pretty much always just walk away from it, so it is very easy to keep your distance with using a shovel while still being able to hit it.

It works similarly for the Thumper too, if you keep smacking it, it'll remain slow.

They should add a setting to remove them

oh also so what about when they spawn webs and go on the wall because u used to be able to walk past a wall spider but not a floor spider but now both modes they attack u

[Magnate]

You can aggro it by destroying a web via shovel.
Then it’s just move somewhere safe to kill them like a thumper by backing up.

Also I’d have to check ingame but I’m pretty sure you can still pass them as long as you don’t touch a web or the spider.
And they mostly shouldn’t attack during setup, unless you run at them or something… not at home to test.

[RazakelKairo]

If you don't have to fight them, don't. Even in their aggro'd state they're perfectly avoidable and if your goal is to leave, jump over them and forge your escape route.

If you do have to kill them, avoid them enough to try to get them to a long walkway (if there's a Bracken, preferably towards a dead-end), then start smacking them while backing up.

Thankfully they're often passive in their nests. They also take up a lot of monster spawns that could've potentially be filled with something more dangerous. So if they're out of the way, be happy they exist. They usually hang around in corridors anyway which don't have jack for loot.

Maybe the spider health needs to be reduced to a two swings from a shovel to kill instead of four? I mean why cant we stomp them by jumping on them when they are crawling on the ground? A human should still be able to crush a 2m meter wide spider by stomping them. I mean we are not fighting Starship trooper bugs from the other Starship Troopers extermination game. The spiders in the game are only 2 meters wide, not 4 meters wide.

I’m not baiting, the recent addition of the arachnophobia mode still triggers me as I still see the mandibles and the cover up still resembles a spider, maybe be a bit more considerate next time you comment

The "Cover up" is, quite literally, a red text that reads "Spider". Like, nothing about that resembles anything. It's text, quite literally.

you can easily outrun spiders and hit them with a shovel while backing up, you need to stop crutching on the rails.
