My friend and I were just farming spiders when we ran into it. It was a pretty fast and easy fight. We got 4 webs and The Spider Torque ^^ Roar!

Saw Dune Widow while running through Eastern Altepa to get to the Quicksand Caves entrance (East side of map). He was in the very middle of the map. I was wondering if my and my party (Party level 45-47) should try and take it on, so I followed it for a while. After a bit, a 66 DRK came up and killed him, she didn't get the drop she said.

Dropping a Spider Torque is just a nasty rumor spread by the opposition ><

Seriously, I'm 0/15 and I hate this spider. Yet I continue on... I'll post when I get drop.

It's a spawn based drop. I have camped and killed it over 20+ times and got drop once. One day I was camping and I saw a JP come and camp it as well. He gets pull so I warp out. The next day I look at price history for the torque and he sold it. So then I gave up on camping it for a while, then I came back and it poped on the same spawn the JP killed it and I got drop aswell. So leading me to think that it is a spawn based drop, thus making it a "Rare" drop.

What do you mean "spawn based"? I know how many placeholders there are (trade secret) and I've seen it pop in each one several times.

0/39 as of this update.. oh and btw by thf67 friend is 4/7 since I showed her this NM and taught her the PH's. Yeah, I love the THF's that post "TH2 makes no difference"

Found this while leveling bst today on widescan. Called my friend out (70blm/35RDM) we had some trouble but killed it within 3 minutes. A fun fight but we only got 3 spider webs. ;_;
Low drop rate?

I went out to help a friend get this last night. I was L60 RDM/29 BST for widescan and she was L66 RDM/15 THF.

She had just killed one solo (without much trouble, but she does have Phalanx and Stoneskin) before I got there. We camped for three hours before the next one popped.

I found it on Widescan, tracked it and went charging toward it. I got it, and we were very excited as we killed it - only to have it drop 3 spider webs.

I went back today and watched a L71 NIN take it down (;;), and he didn't get the drop either.

I think it's a rare drop, and it seems to have a pop time similar to Emp (2-4 hours).
Spider Torque

Well spider torque is pretty much a torque for any rdm that can't get enfeebling torque. So its a lower lvl enfeebling torque and a pretty damn good piece of armor for rdm.

I showed that dune widow who's boss. I was cutting thru the desert and saw it with my level 32 whm. Knowing that it would be so inferior to my taru-ness, i got really far away from it, casted Dia on it and then ran like hell to zone. I tell people all the time that I picked a fight with the dune widow at level 32 and lived to tell the tale. Take that, stinky dune widow!
