First Appearance

Update 0.11.0

Cave Spiders are Neutral Mobs that were added in Update 0.11.0.

Spawning[]

Cave Spiders spawn naturally in Abandoned Mineshafts via Monster Spawners or by using Spawn Eggs in Creative Mode.

Behavior[]

Cave Spiders inherit most of their behavior from Spiders, however when they attack Players they inflict the Poison I Status Effect. However, Cave Spiders will not poison the Player when the Difficulty is set to Easy or lower.

Combat[]

Cave Spiders can be defeated easily by using a high tier weapon such as a Diamond Sword or an Iron Sword. A Bucket of Milk should also be carried to cure the Poison effect.

Trivia[]

  • Cave Spider Poison cannot kill the Player, but it can take its health down to 1/2 a Heart (Half heart).
  • When killed, they will drop String and Spider Eyes like normal Spiders.
  • Like Spiders, Cave Spiders do not slow down when in contact with Cobwebs.
  • They are much smaller than normal Spiders, and can fit through spaces the size of Slabs
  • Their color is slightly different from Spiders, the latter being grey, and the former being blue-blackish.
  • Bedrock Exclusive: Cave Spider Jockeys can spawn rarely.
  • Cave Spider Monster Spawners spawn with cobweb around them, making them hard to break.
