Boss Defeat

[Scarlett]

Hey, Can anyone tell me how to defeat the Boss in Den of the broodmother, I have tryed so hard to kill it, but to no avail. :( Can anyone help please ! Not sure if i'm using the right weapon to kill it !!

Is that the big spider with the many, many eggs around her? I always destroy all the eggs first. Last time I used the Rapier, because "Charge" gives you nice mobility (so you won't get cornered by the spiders that have already spawned) and also destroys most eggs in your path, and "Coup de Grace" can easily destroy an egg so "Charge" is immediately recharged. After you destroyed all the eggs (which can take a while), destroy the little spiders that have spawned - I used the hammer, first "Smash" then "Crush", gives you a nice bit of health. After that, just go straight for the spider boss. The boss can regenerate health, so it's probably better to just immediately try to kill her rather than hitting her and then leave. I used a melee weapon, I don't think it really matters which one.
Do you have the Diamond demon power, maybe even the rare one? That's quite useful too, it's the demon power I use most in this game. I'm not sure if there's a double damage shrine in the area, I know there's a healing shrine.

Good luck!

Yes, it is the one with the big spider and many eggs. I will try and have another go at it later. Thanks for the help :D

So something I tend to do when I fight her(as I like to farm her ;)
is start at the bottom and start moving in a clockwise fashion around the area. But I don't go all the way to the top as I find that causes the eggs to hatch. Instead, I tend to stay in the lower half of the game area constantly circling. I find this has less spiders coming after me.
Something else you might want to try is to equip 'the runner' & a card that gives you 'increased dodge' distance. Those 2 cards alone have saved me from a lot of situations.

I did it like this (i died a couple of times before finding the right strategy but made it with the third try):

Runned in circles and killed as many minions and eggs as possible while avoiding special attacks and buffs like paralysis from all bigger enemies including the boss and used Meteor as often as possible, after i had all the minions down, it was easy. Hope and The Sun were my Destiny cards and a melee Scythe that gave +30% damage against spiders, there is a totem for doubled DMG too and you should make use of it when you aim for the big guy.

Great thank you, I think i'm using the wrong cards, tbh. But, will change them. I was using the shot gun and was getting killed alot, so am thinking i should change the weapon aswell. Thanks for the tip.
