What You'll Be Dealing With
assembled from what lives in this cave 6 Grabs and pinsArmour damageTorporSwarms
-
Rhyniognatha — Pins a survivor or small mount with resin and calls the fight to it; a queen can implant her egg in your own mount.
Fight it at range before the resin lands. -
Arthropluera — Its ranged acid attack damages armour directly — primitive Flak breaks in one or two hits — and armour damage cannot be repaired if the piece is destroyed.
Wear Hide rather than Flak and carry Fiber and Hide to repair. Kill it at range; it out-damages armour faster than you out-heal it. -
Araneo — Webs you in place from range, which stops you kiting and stops a mount fleeing. Its bite applies torpor.
Kill it at range before it closes. Bug Repellant makes it ignore you entirely. -
Pulmonoscorpius — Torpor per hit, higher than almost anything else its size, and it is fast.
Bug Repellant, and Stimulant for when it lands hits anyway. -
Titanoboa — Applies heavy torpor per bite and is quiet enough to reach you before you see it.
Stimberries or Stimulant on your hotbar. Two bites will drop an unprepared survivor. - Titanomyrma — Swarms and applies a small amount of torpor per bite.
Bug Repellant.
Not a threat: Achatina, Dung Beetle, Meganeura
