Nerscylla's attacks are swift and dangerous. Its bite attacks, delivered with a powerful forward lunge, inflict significant damage and poison. Evade these by moving behind the spider or quickly escaping its range. Its web attacks are equally threatening. It can shoot webs directly at you, in a three-part volley, or charge with webs in a horizontal rush or a swinging aerial attack. Dodge or block to avoid being ensnared.

Capturing Nerscylla

To capture Nerscylla, you need the right tools: Pitfall Trap, Shock Trap, and Tranq Bombs (though one trap and two bombs are technically sufficient, bringing extras is wise). Weaken Nerscylla until it limps and a skull icon appears on your minimap, indicating it's ready for capture. Place a trap, lure Nerscylla into it, and then deploy the Tranq Bombs to secure the capture.
