This may change with the addition of multiplayer to 'Beneath', as classes that are better suited to support like the Vanguard become viable with a tanky Brawler/Mauler taking and giving the brunt of the damage.Demonic Spiders: 'Beneath' added some tough new enemies to assert its credentials as the Nintendo Hard experience a Rogue Like needs to be.

The Crystal Crabs have a nasty hitscan laser attack with ridiculously good tracking, making dodging it without taking cover a matter of luck more than anything else.

Sure, they die quickly if you attack their legs, but the hitboxes for those are kinda iffy and you'll more often than not hit their Nigh-Invulnerable bodies instead if you don't crouch and position yourself correctly. Even better, it isn't uncommon to walk into a room and have four or more of them pop up and mow you down with lasers.

The Giant Mages can bombard you with magic missiles and have the ability to rip open space itself to summon more enemies.įorget the eldritch horrors beneath, chances are most of your deaths will be to these things.

Even getting up close is sketchy, because their melee attacks hurt and they can knock you away with a magic explosion (which on Blood and Fire, can end your run in an instant if you get blown into the lava). That alone wouldn't be a huge deal what really gives them clout as a Demonic Spider is that if any Minions are around, they'll grant the Giant Mage an impenetrable shield, letting the latter attack you with impunity until the Minions are dead. May the Elder Gods help you if this happens in a hallway, and the Minions are on the other side.

Your only reprieve is that they don't have a whole lot of health.

Kill them quick and save yourself the hassle.

The Chargers on the Islands don't even have to be facing you nor moving to send you flying.
