[2] Deadly eggs can mob you.

BossAttack6

The boss releases yellow-orange eggs. You can destroy these eggs before they hatch into more spiders that will attack you.

BossAttack7

During phase 2, when the eggs land, a toxic cloud is released around it. When you touch the cloud, you will get poisoned.

[3] Beware of the pillar.

BossAttack8

During the 2nd phase, the spider will start creating a stone pillar and having it roll quickly towards the player. This is very hard to evade unless you are far from the boss. And with its final 'roll', the pillar will instead drop from above and land with great force. Be careful not to get caught in its wake!

BossAttack9

During phase 3, while it will still do the stone pillar, it will now also create a stone slab. The giant stone slab will follow the player and then slam onto the ground several times.
