What You'll Be Dealing With

assembled from what lives in this cave 4

TorporAmbushSwarmsCold

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.
Megalania — Climbs walls and ceilings, so it attacks from above where a mount cannot follow, and its bite applies a stacking torpor.
Check the ceiling. Stimulant for the torpor stacks.
Onyc — Attacks in numbers, drains stamina, and is small enough that most mounts cannot hit it.
A shotgun, or a pike on foot. They path erratically, so aimed single shots waste ammunition.
