The Skittering Dark Cave in Silverpine Forest.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I've killed this mob 2 times, and have had 2 greens drop. Looking at the loot table, it seems this mob always drops a green item. Pretty awesome.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Well, she hits pretty hard sometimes and absorbs a lot of damage. Killed her with my lvl 16 warrior and failed 3 times because of her absorption. 4th time I got her.^^

Dropped some lvl 9 green cloak.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Well.... I SLAUGHTERED this spider... i'm lvl 18 and she died in about 6 seconds or so... she got like.. 2 hits off, no shadow spell. Dropped 2 green items, a belt and boots... She's just inside the cave for anyone wanting to kill her.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This is one evil spider. It uses an absorbtionshield (Paladin-style) and an instant Shadowspell that hits for 130 something. Meany meany spider...

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ok, this mob is NOT for the weaker players.

It has two special abilities which should not be underestimated:

Shadow Shock - approx 120-130 damage; 15 second cooldown
Shadow Shield - absorbs a buttload of damage. It's worth noting that this ability is not a Banish-type ability, but it can still attack you. (However much so, it seems that while it has Shadow Shield up, it's chance to hit drops greatly--my combat log shows that while it had that ability up, it had gotten a hit off of me only once, the rest of the events were me dodging)

Between those two abilities, if not for the Alchemy buffs, I would've died for sure.

My first encounter with the mob, I died very quickly because of teh Shock alone. (started below 50% health, not knowing how powerful it was) All in all, here are some clips from my recorded Combat Log (using AutoLog):

4/19 19:26:36.093 Krethis Shadowspinner's Shadow Shock hits you for 124 Shadow damage.
4/19 19:30:54.250 You create Elixir of Minor Fortitude.
4/19 19:30:58.656 You create Weak Troll's Blood Potion.
4/19 19:31:04.203 You create Elixir of Lion's Strength.
4/19 19:31:09.875 You create Elixir of Minor Defense.
4/19 19:31:12.234 You gain Health.
4/19 19:31:15.765 You gain Regeneration.
4/19 19:31:19.500 You gain Lesser Strength.
4/19 19:31:23.375 You gain Lesser Armor.
4/19 19:31:44.015 Krethis Shadowspinner's Shadow Shock hits you for 99 Shadow damage. (33 resisted)
4/19 19:31:44.015 Krethis Shadowspinner hits you for 19.
4/19 19:31:45.250 Krethis Shadowspinner gains Shadow Shield.
< at this point, it was absorbing up until 4/19 19:31:57.312 >
4/19 19:31:59.750 Krethis Shadowspinner's Shadow Shock hits you for 95 Shadow damage. (31 resisted)
4/19 19:32:04.765 Krethis Shadowspinner dies, you gain 242 experience. (+121 exp Rested bonus)

Hope this helps you guys out. Best of luck

(Did this as a 14 Rogue Alchemist, using all 4 of the basic Alchemy buffs)

sounds like she can be one bad ass spider if
underestimated.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Definitely a pain in the arse fight if you aren't her lvl or higher. Took me three tries to solo her as a 12 mage, best thing I can say is to clear a patch of land to fight her on, frostbolt her and arcane missiles till she comes up to you, frost nova, run the hell away, missiles, fireblast and then whatever is left to finish her off. If you mass DPS her real fast she may not be able to get off that instacast shadow bolt, which hurts like hell for squishies.

how long does it take for it to spawn

Kommentar von Thottbot

I'm pretty new to the game, but my Level 14 Undead Mage took her out just as easy as any of the regular spiders around the skittering dark. I didn't notice any difference except she drops nicer stuff.

Kommentar von Thottbot

He is easy to catch ...located in the back of the spider cave is Silver Pine forest...not the best pet but he hits hard for a spider

Kommentar von Thottbot

i tamed him at lvl 15 and he has been a very good pet.. ive never need another one! now im 31 and i just got a new rare i like too but i wont abandone him... hes very cool. (i still think hes better than the new one).

Kommentar von Thottbot

Yep...Krethis is still around...makes a good pet too, does a good shadow damage

Kommentar von Thottbot

Encountered this beasty outside the cave during the 'Skittering' quest, and, thinking it would be a walk over like most rare spawns, promptly got wupped (this is with a level 13 UD warrior)

It killed me twice more >=(

Finally managed to kill the thing by just sticking rend on, thunder clap, hamstring then running and throwing a dagger or 2. When rend wears off, re-apply it, hamstring and hope that it doesnt shock or shield. I killed it this way without losing more than 1/4 of my health. Good luck!

Kommentar von Thottbot

I am hearing that this spider has casting attributes. Anyone know what this might be?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I just got her tonight. The server had just come back up after an unscheduled shutdown. I ran up to Southshore and swam up the coastline to the cave in Silverpine (my hunter is a lvl 28 dwarf). I took a wolf with me, Lupos. When I first got in the cave and got to the back she wasn't there. On the way out there were horde at the entrance - I saw one of the spiders run across the front of the entrance and the sound of a spell. I went to the back of the cave to stone back to Stormwind and she had spawned as well. I dumped Lupos and had to cast tame pet twice to get her. I was just waiting for the shot in the back while taming :)The second try got her and I stoned out. Right after that the server started the 15 minute shutdown count again! After all this I HOPE she has some sort of proc. Getting Lupos after the patch and finding out he was fixed and just another Wolf was disappointing to say the least. Unfortunately there isn't much info on "caster pets" so I didn't find out until I started checking the combat log and really diving deep into the forums. Then again - getting her was a fun trip!

Found her in the cave while doing A Recipe for Death. Saw she was rare, and looked badass. She was lvl 15, I was lvl 15... this could be good. So, I ditched my lame-o plain-o pet and let out a well placed concussive shot, and let the taming begin.

She raped me.

Her shadow dmg ability hits hard, as do her normal strikes, so needless to say, I went down. But I was not deterred, in fact, that just made me want to tame her even more.

I came back, rezzed, healed up, tamed a fuzzy spider near by, and cleaned out the cave as much as I could, and released him. Then, again, I went up to ol' miss cranky pants and tried again, started with a concussive shot, same as before. Only this time, I lead her back towards the cave opening, and right as she got up to me, I cast Scare Beast and sent her running around the passageways as I let the Tame bar start its countdown. It bought me even time to tame the wench, and even with having feared her, she still got me down to 30% health.

So for those of you around 15 wanting to tame her, this was a successful strategy, would have been much easier with traps, but hey, when you don't have them yet, you have to make do.

Watch out, this one is really nasty for level 15, the spider has a proc (when struck) of shadow damage around 110, it also puts up an absorbtion shield on the spider...
Not sure what the damage value of the shield is, but its more than enough to last till the next proc, took my 15 Rogue out with ease.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

just leveled to 14 so I hadnt trained up yet.

I took me a couple trys to figure out a strategy because her shield she throws up absorbs spells and they heal her.

So here's what you do:

clear out all the mobs around her.. I mean everything.

Send your pet into attack and dot her up.

Shoot one shadowbolt and then fear her and immediatley shadowbolt again. This killed her for me but if it doesn't, fear again.

If you let her throw the shield up she will absorb all the dots you have on her and heal up.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I just tamed her, and what a pretty spider she is! I'm level 34 so I've got some leveling to do with her though. ><

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Found her in the cave on my mage while getting bloods, took some doing to kill her though, got simple robe fo the owl which was nice. Walk out, bam Son of Arugal gets me again, bastard.

Black body, red spots, almost exactly like SriSkulk.

Easy to notice amoung the fuzzy bodied creepers, she's less tarantula and more black widow.

As of 1/23/07:

I tamed her about a week ago. Got her up to 17 so far (I'm 27). This tamed beast has no special abilities, but does have a pretty decent attack rate (maybe 1.5, but don't think it's the ultra-fast 1.2). She also has average armor, and with more training will make a decent DPS pet.. but again, no proc's so nothing special.

She does look really nice though, and is very original vs. what other hunter's are hauling around.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

she is fun in pvp i send her in alone and let her reak hell when the ppl attack her they freak out from the proc *i have even been acused of hacking while in a dule

*this spider makes me hot

Kommentar von Allakhazam

ok i love these kinda pets and i just made a hunter and wanna know which on to raise- Ressan the needler or this fellow?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Sometimes she is in the BACK of the cave with about 5 other spiders. If this is the case it is tuff to clear around her.... Unless U have a lvl 60 Shadow Priest in yer pocket :/ ... The Proc that she uses seems to go off more often as u Train her up in levels and abilities.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Saw it when i was in the middle of the cave killing spiders for skittering blood.. but i died in there..so i logged off..when i came back later that night it was in the back of the cave.. thought it was pretty hard for being a lvl 15,but killed it.. pulled cuz there are pretty many other spiders around.. i was realleh hyped about killing it but then it only dropped those willow bracers T_T ZOMG!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Very cool rare spawn. Uses 'Shadow Shock' an ability i wish i could get with my shaman. Also some kind of very strong shield. Was basically impossible to solo as a 14 mage.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I found this one right in front of the cave. I was a level 18 shammie and was kind of startled when none of my shock spells worked. Even though I had three levels on her, she still took me down to about half health and little mana (the shocks eventually went through).

If you can get this one, I say go for it.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Ran into her. She was in front of the cave. I shot at her for pull then did my rogue thizzle. Had her at half health when she nuked me and shielded. Drop me to a qaurter health when I hit the slice and dice to bring her down. Tough lil bitty. The loot was a green cloth bracer. To bad spiders don't have cool tricks like that tamed.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

BTW i'd just hit lvl 15 when i killed it..

Kommentar von Zazhkwar

1.13.2(30xxx) patch, found it, tame it, have 0 skills, waste of time, bad stats, trash.
found Gorefang 3 min before, and tame him also, almost same pets, nothing special.

Kommentar von littlesten

Mages shouldn't have an issue if you just pound her. I stupidly tried to finish her off with a wand which I then died.
Second attempt I blasted her to bits.

I was level 13.
