Behavior: They usually summon nether spiderlings and will therefore break your defense. They also often attack in groups.
Field notes: The fearsome Nether Spiders are pent-up in their cave for a long time and won't back down if they have a chance to appease their hunger. They will aggresively attack their pray and pierce with their venomous teeth right through their flesh. Escaping is difficult because they will haste and use sticky webs to do anything possible to eat their running victims.
Location: East of Forgula Cave, single spawn near Mintwallin
Strategy: 1 knight and 2 mages can summon 4 Demon Skeleton and stay at the entrance. The knight will lure the Nether Spiders one by one. The mages then use Heavy Magic Missile runes, while their Demon Skeleton surround the spider. The immediate defense break will lead to a sufficient way of saving Ultimate Healing Rune as knight and will give the mages a fair amount of experience.

Also, a high level sorcerer can kill them with the help of a knight, by luring 3 at each time and using Great Energy Beam. This is a fast way to do the task, but with a waste.
