==Dungeon Mechanics==
=Dungeon Mechanics=
Like most dungeons, {{ZoneIcon|Lair of the Spider Queen}} has many weaker enemies before sending the strongest enemy at you, which in this case is {{MonsterIcon|Spider Queen}}. Normally, you would pick a specific combat style to fight the enemies to get the full advantage of the combat triangle, but in this dungeon, you can't. {{MonsterIcon|Spider Queen|The Spider Queen}} has a unique mechanic where they will have a random combat triangle each time. Similarly, the 19 weaker enemies before it are randomised in a way which again, makes the combat styles random. This part isn't very important since the heavy hitter in the dungeon is the last enemy. Since the random combat style gimmick is the only reason this dungeon is difficult to many, it is actually rather simple to manually clear.

* This setup was tweaked to be able to idle Spider Queen at reasonable levels & gear. Optimizing the kills per hour is too dependent on your stats and available gear, use the [[Combat Simulator]] to find what is optimal for you. This setup clears around 6-7 {{ZoneIcon|Lair of the Spider Queen}} per hour.
 
* {{ItemIcon|Corundum Crossbow}} performs better than {{ItemIcon|Shockwave}}. If you are unable to obtain the {{ItemIcon|Divine Crossbow}}, use the highest level crossbow you can obtain.

{{Disclaimer|This particular build only works in standard mode. This exact setup is not completely safe in hardcore or adventure mode due to the harder Combat Triangle}}


* For complete safety in hardcore mode, apply the following changes:
=Ancient Relics Guide=
** Level {{Skill|Hitpoints|Hitpoints}} to 120
** Gather the following [[Pets]] {{PetIcon|Leonardo}}, {{PetIcon|Erran}}, {{PetIcon|Finn}}, {{PetIcon|Kiko}}.
** Replace {{ItemIcon|Ring of Power}} with {{ItemIcon|Palladium Runestone Ring}}. Make sure it is in your passive slot and not your ring slot since it has -1% DR, but when in the passive slot, you do not lose 1% DR.
** Replace {{ItemIcon|(P) Corundum Shield}} with {{ItemIcon|(P) Augite Shield}}.
** Replace {{ItemIcon|Glacia God Gloves}} with {{ItemIcon|(U) Elderwood Vambraces}}.
Always make sure to double-check your setup in the [[Combat Simulator]]. <br>
