Where to find

Spiders spawn in darkness where enough horizontal space exists; cave spiders are tied to abandoned mineshaft spawners. Normal spiders remain active at night.

Behavior and danger

A spider leaps into melee and climbs vertical surfaces. In bright daylight it becomes neutral until attacked by the player.

Drops and uses

String supports bows, fishing rods, wool, and scaffolding, while spider eyes are brewing ingredients. Bane of Arthropods deals bonus damage and applies slowness.

Strategy and edition notes

Fight under cover so a leap cannot arrive from above, and avoid backing into a wall. Core behavior matches both editions, while rare status effects depend on local difficulty.
