To the person saying where do I find these, what I know of, there are caves on the island and above ground on extinction. Hope this helps.
Don’t do what I did I forgot it was a passive tame
You need to have a bug reppelant and a ghillie Armor to tame one of these guys.
They are also good at farming caves for BP
Slow. Keep your distance and they are easily managed. If they get within striking distance they will spray a slowin web, then converge on you. Use ranged weapons to dispatch them
DO NOT PUT THEM IN THE WATER TO TAME. They will die lmao. The best way to tame is using bug repellent.
All of these except Broodmother Lysrix are males!
For taming an araneo
1st:make a bug reppelant it unlocks at level 16 and it needs 12 engram points its recipe is: 6 pelt 2 narcotic 4 citronal 4 rockarrots
2nd : go to hunter cave with torch cuz hunter cave is so dark and bring metal weopens also
3rd: find an araneo and consume bug repellant you need to bring total 3 or 4 bug repellant
4rth: clear the area and you know how bug repellant works if you will consume it so then insects spiders scorpions snakes will ignore just dont attack them or dont go near them so then they will attack you
5th: after clearing the area consume bug repellant it effects only last for 5 min so its necessary to bring 3 or 4
6th carefully feed its preffered food spoiled meat it has passive taminf no knockout taming
7th: use shooting balm your choice
Boom! You have tamef an araneo
Araneo saddle unlocks at level 40
Tamming effeciency is way off and amount of spoiled meat needed. Time to tame is accurate though. Just grab the spider with an argy and drop it in 1x1 2 walls high and you look at its legs and feed it
This is what bug repellent was made for . To tame insect type Dino such as these !!!!
In The Island, these spawn in almost every cave.
