How to Counter Broodmother

Webs give Broodmother free movement and hide Spinner's Snare lines, while Spawn Spiderlings and Spider's Milk let her swarm and heal off kills. Spiderlings hatch only if the marked target dies within 20 seconds. Area damage and damage block cut the swarm down.

Counter items

  • Shiva's GuardArctic Blast damages every spiderling in range and the aura slows their attacks.
  • Crimson GuardDamage block shrinks the many hits that spiderlings deal.
