Please help (Deep Nest)

[Zwardz]

I got trapped in deep nest in some beast lair and can't get out some fat mask spider is blocking my way I don't have great slash so how can I move forward? I have fury of the fallen and long nail can anyone please help me?

[Nurtemms]

You have to kill the spider. you go in front of it, when the mask opens hit it 1-2 times then dash away and repeat till it dies.

They're a bastard to kill.
Aside from the hit-and-run tactic, you can try to lure out an attack and hit it with magic, or try hitting it with your spin attack if you've learned it.

If you can lure it into a more open area, do that and pogo it to death.

Thanks for your help, much appreciated

I've had a hard time with these guys through several playthroughs...then at some point I noticed most areas they're in are a really low tunnel, but nearby is an area with enough space to hop over them and down-attack them until they die.

I realized the whole back-and-forth motion with them (if you don't attack) was intentional and I'd apparently missed this out of fear of how dangerous they are. I felt like an idiot.

You mean you felt very clever because you managed to completely trivialize some of the hardest enemies in the game right?

No, I felt stupid for not realizing that the game gave you a method of beating them that seemed deliberate and obvious. So, I felt stupid for not noticing it for so long. I was otherwise brute-forcing killing them, and it always felt like I was missing something.

Just two sides of the same coin. :d

I'd rather feel smart than stupid about it. :D If things were obvious we wouldn't miss them. Give yourself a pat on the back. *pat-pat*

You guys do know there is a 1 hit opening when he shows his face right? Let him show his fangs (without hitting it) and hit then dash and repeat.

I know.

Yeah, but that requires really close timing.

Try using the Shade Soul, if you have it. It pierces their armor and if you have the Spell Twister on you can spam it against them really easily.
