Stay away from the spiders. They'll suck out your insides and leave you a hollow shell of a man. Trust me on this one.
The Wall Creeper is a spider-like enemy that can be found in caverns, spawning in and around Spider Nests, only in pre-Hardmode worlds. Wall Creepers are capable of climbing background walls (as seen in their dens) as well as through platforms, but revert to acting like a fighter enemy when there is no background wall.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- They can be found in large quantities in Spider Nests. These nests can be identified by large amounts of cobwebs surrounding the cave's walls.
- They are immune to knockback while they are on a wall.
- They never spawn in Hardmode worlds, where they are replaced by Black Recluses. Unless the player has obtained a Wall Creeper Statue, the Wall Creeper Banner will be unobtainable in a world that has already entered Hardmode.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
The quote of the Skeleton Merchant suggests that he may have become skeletal due to this spider.
The Wall Creeper cannot crawl through Platforms.
