I went into a cave at the artic and it is not worth it I get attacked by onycs I kept falling in the traps I set up like ten beds died every time argie was watching me ps no hard feelings thundie bird

How to easily tame, without using anykind stuff like chilli, or repellent :

Tame first a scorpion (whatever LV), within a cave

Ride the Scorpion, while approaching the spider

As the spider wouldn't notice you, you can feed it easily

While you want the spider :

To go in caves, and to slow down any opponents, or wild creatures that you might want to kill

Disadvantages :

His whole stats are so low (low stamina, low attacks, low weight)

Only the speed is decent, but the stamina makes it slow as hell

To take this arachnid araneo u must get bug repellent and sneak behind cuz if u sneak infront it will see u and kill u even if u have bug repellent. Found only in caves.

Why are these not venomous like it’s a giant spider

These guys aren’t as bad as most people make out. Any decent cave mount can deal with them pretty easily, or a decent shotgun (double barrel or pump) if you don’t have a mount. Just remember to bring stimulants and med brews if you’re on foot

Just shove rotten meat up its ass and then climb on the wals

Those who say riding a scorpion does aggro this, its true, only if you tame a scorpion outside the cave

If going to a dungeon (mobile) with broodgenetix PLEASE BRING STIMS I learned this the hard way by losing my hardcore medium world

They often come in packs so be prepared

Might be useful as I just noticed that you can ride them through doorways

Tanning effectiveness, account of food required and timing is off. X2 official 1.8% per spoiled meat every 16 seconds and efficiency was down to 64%. 150 went to 197

A easy way to tame it is just by getting a flyer and picking it up and put in water because it has to swim out before getting aggravated

Have low stamina bettter understand that

Remember, it's tamed non-violently, knocking it out is useless (you need bug repellent or it will attack)

Take caution when in any cave or underground. The Araneo can climb walls and drop from the ceiling without warning. Their torpor inducing bite and slowing webs can put you in a helpless situation. Also keep in mind they tend to stay in groups. If you see one there is likely two or more somewhere nearby. I strong suggest and weapon with a flashlight attachment. A pump shotgun being my prefered caving weapon.

Its taking double the amount of spoiled meat then it says it requires.

An araneo has the ability to launch a web snare. This snare can slow movement, allowing for the araneo to swiftly close the gap. Having a shotgun(it tells you what you need in the respective hunting quest), can easily clear out a swarm.

When riding in the caves enemies ignore you.

How to tame step one find spider . Befor it aggros on you eat bug repellint crouch feed spoild meat and boom spider tamed no gille armer needed sory for bad English

Would be cool if devs added ability to create temporary zip lines, climb walls, and use ziplines.
