A Baldur's Gate 3 player has revealed how to create a collection of twelve monstrous spiders, which they can use to confront the dangers of the Forgotten Realms.
Baldur's Gate 3 allows players to unleash the power of nature on their enemies, whether it's through the primal magic of a Druid or through a Ranger's friendship with the animals in the game world and teaming up with them against monsters.
While animals may not seem like powerful allies against Mind Flayers or dragons, they can surprise you with just how powerful they are. The Druid's Wild Shape ability is a great example, as their bear form allows them to tear apart enemies with ease.

Then again, a spider-centric party would make a fun challenge. Baldur's Gate 3 players are obsessed with beating Honor Mode in unusual ways, so a Lolth-approved spider army will be a fun one.
