I spent at least 15 hours at the spot described on this page (the one just south of Mithious) with a mage F8 targetting and rotating 360 degrees without ever getting the Queen. I killed every other rare at that location but she never popped. I moved to the location between the pixie and fairy areas in the northwest (the spot currently labeled on Brewall's map) and within three hours using the same tactic, I had a dead Queen. This could be coincidence or not, but something to try if you're not having luck.
last month doing the hunter ach…. killed everything that moved took about 3 days … she popped between the brownie camp and the bandit camp along the same wall.... while trying to get her to pop I noticed working that side I got a few named to pop as to when I was killing near mistmoore and over by the rangers I got nothing ….
This mob is still in existence. I encountered her half-way between the zone in from GFay and the Dark Elf camp. She dropped the pulsating brood clutch.
Just killed her today.. was really easy, but then again, I am 51... So.. Yeah. I started to think a while back that they might have stopped spawning her, but then i saw her on track and was like ' Hmm.. i'll go have a looksie..' and she obviously hates woodelf druids cause she attacked me quickly... Anyways.. Gl and tc all Norathians!
Can anyone confirm that this mob has popped recently? Does anyone know where the spawn point is and what the placeholders are, if any? I have never, ever seen any mob remotely like this in Lfay before.

she aggroed on my 51 ranger yesterday, aug 22, 04. after 69 lfay adventures, tracking for equestrielle almost constantly, (first in fear, then with anticipation of revenge) i had never seen this spider on track before.
i was about 10 seconds away from crypt entrance to ldon, headed for gfay.
from all ive learned, the pulsating brood clutch has no known use, other than vendor fodder.
still pops; killed it today; she popped on me while killing brownie guards... never saw before in many moons of hunting in Lfay... dropped a giant spider thorax (nodrop) and the pulsating blood clutch...
She drops a Giant Wood Spider Thorax not a Giant Spider Thorax.(No drop and used in different low level quests starting in Rivervale,Erudin and somewhere else.the Thorax drops from a lot different Mobs in different zones too.)She dropped even Gloves and some spider venom sack
I confirm I killed her I killed her near Brownie fort game time wed october 25th 3172 6pm earth time tue aug 12 2003 3:51pm pst she dropped 2 silk a giant wood spider bone err something and Pulstaing Brood Clutch not sure what it is for worth 6pp to brownie vendor.
I have also killed crookstinger twice and got his stinger the 1st time and CrookStingers Poison a single charge potion what does it do?
I'm a 45 DE Wizard, and was medding between kills while camping Happ near the Steamfont zoneline. She must of popped on me and immediately attacked as i was caught totally off guard. Anyway, one spell later, she was a quivering pile of burnt bug and dropped Shiny Silk Gloves. I was the only person in the zone, don't know if this info helps or not.
Based of what I've seen here and from I can find at other sites I think the pulsation Brood Clutch is just a sale iteam to get wh ever killed her really nice cash at here lvl. i mean 6.5pp for it is not bad at all. Espisly for her lvl an all.
Ok, As i have heard by other players of everquest this is a rare spawn and the shiny silk gloves is rare loot. I might be wrong though. Also this is like a lvl 11 or 12 giant spider. And she will pop up from anywere to the sisters camp to the little gnome houses. I have know clue what the sac does. the shiny silk gloves are ok for lower lvl's. Hope this helps ~Peace out~
I killed the Queen today, and she dropped some sack. Does anyone know what this sack is for, because it is lore it probably goes to some minor quest. Oh yea she spawned next to the Undead pilar, and was dead in one shot.
I saw this spider on tracking last night (9-25-01) for the first time. I dont spend a ton of time in LFay but I do make the Mistmoore run quite a bit, and I had never seen her before.
On this occasion, I was looking for Thistle when I noticed her on tracking. She was right near the Pixie/Outcast tower. I opened with Snare, but had a nasty lag bubble; when I recovered, she was halfway across the zone and wasn't Snared. Tracked her down and finished the job - and she actually dropped the gloves, which appear to be her Rare drop. I imagine these are nice for lowbie monks, before their fists become magic or they find something better.
Oh - forgot to mention that I did NOT see anyone slaying any spiders at all at the time. I have no idea what could have caused the Queen to show up. Just plain random and rare, I'd say.

It is not back to normal, equestrielle the corrupted almost killed me today (Friday, August 17th, 2001) I dunno whats up, but I needed the sarcoscypha fungus from the faerie camp.
With the new 5/30/01 patch in place, Verant did us an unannounced favor, they put some new mobs in lesser fay that make hanging out at levels below 25 nuts. They now have a blighted mare which hit my lvl 17 druid for 89 and a new little guy named undead horror which hits for 50 or more at a pop. Tie these guys in with the brownie scouts and the place is a very good zone to avoid, especially if your going in for a poison sack.
The GM event in Lesser Fay is over now. It ended on July 2nd. There were certain mobs dropping items for GM related quests, luckily I got a few of them hehe. Just to let you know Lesser Fay is back to normal.
(This is good for me because I couldn't finish the Rain Caller bow quest for a friend of mine since the undead took over the faerie village :P)
While i was killing happ the quen spawned on me and i looted a pulsating spider clutch off of her. It was not no drop but was magical. Think it is for a rouge poision not sure though.
Killed at northern derv camp.. 15 lvl druid.. dropped easily, started fight at 1/2 health. Currently trying to find out what the Pulsating Clutch Brood is.
I just killed this. The pulsating worth 6pp! I find her two times on the path near the entrance of Gfay... I had kiled a lot of giant spiders before. maybe she comes to save her minions...
I killed this one too. She didn't drop either of the two listed, but instead a no drop lore poison sack. I have no clue what it's for or where it goes, but it has to be some Rogue thing. I still have it in bank, so if anyone has some Ak'non quest looking for a special poison, please let me know, it's probably for that.
I think she's actually somewhere between 10 and 12, judging by the way she hits. No idea what the brood clutch is but the shiny silk gloves are ac 4 +5hp, and they are magic items, so they are nice for monks and casters alike.
