Spider Succubus

The Spider Succubus an optional encounter in the Decaying Woods.

Strategy
The Spider Succubus is rather difficult fight, especially due to her placement rather early in the Decaying Woods. It is recommended the player does not engage her right away. She has a high agility, which means that she will attack before you until you acquire a higher agility. It is recommended you complete at least the Tribal Succubus challenge for the agility bonus before returning to her. Waiting till you've cleared the rest of the Decaying Wood will only make things easier on you.

Outside of that, following the steps in the combat guide should help you defeat her.

Trivia

 * This encounter is the first presentation of the Insect Clan in the entire series.
