Armor Spider

Introduction
This boss -as the name suggests- is an armored spider, that can be found and fought in the 2-1 world of the game "Demon's Soul ".



The boss is specifically found after the first elevator encounter, and is noticable because of the thick deep fog before what seems to be a tunnel. This boss fight is fairly simple, and can easily be fought with only a shield, sword/spear and the first set of armor.

Sequence 1 (Confrontation)

 * 1) As you enter the fog, the boss will appear in the end of the tunnel. As you are too far away to strike and vulnerable to its fire attack, you would want to run towards the boss immediately.
 * 2) The spider will throw web at you, and because of this, you will move at a slower rate over a period of about 10 seconds. Try to avoid the web attack.
 * 3) After a successful web attack the spider will then shoot lava boulders towards you, these should be avoided, or blocked if struck by web.
 * 4) When you find yourself close to where the spider is positioned, it will throw a number of three boulders at the same time, at a certain point of the hallway/tunnel, just wait for it to stop. It will shot 3x3 boulders before taking a break.
 * 5) After this, you should be close enough to strike the spider.

Sequence 2 (Too close for comfort)

 * 1) When you are close enough to strike the spider, it will do one of 3 possible attacks.
 * 2) * Horizontal Pincer Swing, which is easily blocked and often done twice in a row. After blocking this attack, you should release the L1(Block) button for 1-2 seconds to regain stamina at a faster rate for the next pincer attack.
 * 3) * The vertical pincer smash. which you would want to back away from. Unknown if this is blockable.
 * 4) * Super Awesome Fire Blast Attack. Personally I positioned myself in the far back-end corner to the right, and pulled up my shield. The damage isn't fatal, unless you get directly hit each time the fire tick.
 * 5) Use the recovery period after each vertical pincer smash to hit the spider 1-2 times. Repeat this, and you should kill the boss after 2-4 minutes, depending on your weapon stats, and soul level.
