On rare occasions, the spider's large abdomen will start to shake and she will spray small clouds of reddish-purple energy around and behind herself in a rough cone shape, similar to but different from, her fire wave attack. The only thing to watch out for is not letting her legs strike you on the head from above, as this can circumvent your shield to knock you down and do more damage. She pauses and stomps on one side or the other with her spider legs, causing small damage that is easily dodged or blocked by a shield.

With a little practice, you should end up beside her and behind her lava spray, giving you another opportunity to land some hits. A better tactic can be to immediately start strafing to one side while she is in midair, as she cannot correct her flightpath once airborne. Trying to dodge to the sides is very difficult to do successfully. It's very easy to get knocked back into the lava it spits with this attack, if you don't back up far enough. If she pauses while still some distance from you, watch out and back up! The spider will leap towards you, spitting lava simultaneously. These attacks are slow to execute and provide a good opportunity to strafe around to her side and land several melee attacks. The animation on this attack can be deceptive, as the actual lava pools often appear farther out from her than where it appeared she was spraying them. She will spit lava on the ground, in an arc around her, leaving pools of molten magma that stagger you and set you on fire, making it difficult to escape the lava once you are trapped in it.Īlternatively, if you are far enough away she may shoot 4-5 balls of lava at you. When she pats the spider's head or the spider looks like regurgitating, it's preparing for this attack. The initial stab can also be mostly deflected if you are blocking with a high fire resistance shield, but you will still want to get out of the way of the attack as soon as possible. If you are in front of her when she starts winding up for it, either roll backwards or to the side several times, or if you are close enough, simply walk forward, to the right.

It usually follows her two close range fire slash attacks, but occasionally will be used by itself. This attack extends straight over the spider's head and has much more range than expected. These slashes are also angled outwards from her human portion and therefore typically miss if you are very close to the spider's head. Quelaag slashes in either direction with her sword.
