Once the Brood Mother's health drops below half (i.e., 150 health or 75 hearts), it will begin Phase 2, where it drops its melee shield and changes colour from blue to orange. If you have Galacticraft installed, the Grappling Hook is useful for reaching the upper ledge without entering the tree, assuming the roof of the Erebus is low enough for you to latch on to.place blocks under yourself as you jump) once reaching the arena to reach the upper ledge, allowing you to use the same tactic without scaling the outside of the tree.

You may also use the stackjump technique (i.e.If you do so, you can rain arrows down upon the Brood Mother from an unreachable ledge above her arena, practically skipping this phase of the fight entirely. If you are able to, you can scale the outside of a Giant Eucalyptus Tree rather than go through the inside.Augmented Scorpion Pincers are better for this fight than any kind of bow (including Maximum Speed Bows) as they do not slow you down and can ignite the Brood Mother, but require Fire Charges to use.The radius is approximately 5 blocks from the Brood Mother. If you stay away from the Brood Mother herself, you won't cop damage from her Jump Slam.They have minimal health and will only cause you grief. Slaughter the Tarantula Babies whenever they spawn.The blue shield surrounding the Brood Mother prevents damage with melee weapons only splash potions and ranged weaponry can inflict damage. Instead, they spawn two Tarantula Babies that will pursue the player. The Jump Slam, like the Antlion Overlord, inflicts Slowness for a short period (7 seconds), but unlike the Overlord also inflicts Blindness for 4 seconds.įurthermore, the Brood Mother will lob eggs at the player that inflict no damage. This attack is similar to the Jump Slam of the Antlion Overlord, inflicting damage and sending the player into the air high enough to deliver another half a heart of damage. In this phase, the Brood Mother is completely immobile, and can only attack you through jumping in place, dealing an amount of damage dependent on difficulty (see Mob Box above). Once a player is spotted, the battle begins, consisting of two phases. They will sit in the center of their arena until the player gets within detection radius. Tarantula Brood Mothers only spawn in Giant Eucalyptus trees, found exclusively in Ulterior Outback.

I am looking for motivated and skilled modders who would enjoy taking part in a project like the Erebus, focusing on exploration and adventure moreso than on endless automation (though the former most certainly does not exclude the latter).The Tarantula Brood Mother is the Erebus' first boss mob. Rewriting the Ant Farm system to function smoothly.

Partial rework of the Antlion dungeon to live up to its fantasy better. That said, some other improvements are, in my opinion, much needed: That said, let bygones be bygones, so I'm back on track to turn the Erebus mod into what we've always wanted it to become.įirst of all, the main goal is to port the mod to 1.10.2, obviously. Chylex (of Hardcore Ender Expansion fame) has long lost his motivation, Gany (known from Gany's Overworld, etc.) is currently doing other things and our dearest Dave/vadis365 has become rather burnt out due to the above two and myself going on hiatus for a long time. Now, the situation is as follows: life catches up to each and every one of us, and I am sad to say the old team somewhat fell apart due to this. It has been an incredibly long time but I have finally rediscovered my love for Minecraft, and therefore I have decided to continue development on the Erebus mod.
