Spider Succubus

The Spider Succubus is an optional encounter in the Decaying Woods. She is an aggressive succubus, who prefers not to use her charms on the player, but rather taunt him and pounce on him. She is also quite strong, boasting about her prowess and her spiders killing the miners. Her drain technique is one of the most painful the player can experience - so for those seeking pleasure, this succubus is an example of pure pain.

Strategy
The Spider Succubus is a 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 appearance of an Insect Clan Succubus in the entire series.
 * Despite being a member of the Insect Clan, her body does not take the form of an insect, but rather an arachnid.
