A Giant spider is an introductory monster in RuneScape. Many new players kill the level 2 giant spiders to train combat because of their low combat level and close location to the starting point in Lumbridge.

The level 27 spiders are rarely trained on, and are aggressive.

Level 50 Giant spiders are found exclusively in the third level of the Stronghold of Security and are very popular with higher-levelled players due to the fact that they are aggressive to all players regardless of combat level, making it one of the most popular Free-to-play and Pay-to-play training spots, yielding between 25,000 to 60,000 experience per hour.

The level 50 Giant spiders are fairly accurate and can hit up to 74 LP, so it is recommended that players wear at least full rune armour and bring food (filling the inventory with food is recommended as the spiders drop nothing). Alternatively, players can bring a Bunyip, Saradomin Godsword, Unicorn Stallion, or a full set of Guthans to heal with. The spiders down there do NOT drop anything. The spiders are recommended (level 50) for combat level 55-138.

Trivia

  • In the Hallowe'en 2011 event the player has to choose a giant spider to represent Famine in statue form; however famine's was said to be black.
  • The level 50 variety are slightly darker in colour than the lower level spiders.
