Fighting Tips

A full set of leather armor is the bare minimum for fighting Lava Spiders at lower Fighting levels.

Chain/Plate is more suitable when facing a spider or any other animal which bites.

Lava Spiders should generally not be attempted until over 20FS. This is dependent on skills such as weapon skill and shield skill as well as the quality of the equipment being used (armors and weapons).

Always attempt to gain optimum footing whenever possible. Fighting on a horse is an excellent way of doing this.
