Giant spider

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 from 30,000 to 60,000 experience per hour. They are also slightly darker in colour than the lower level spiders. 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, bring a bunyip, Saradomin Godsword, unicorn stallion or a full set of Guthan.
