Phase spiders are slippery opponents, capable of striking at great distances and bypassing control and area-denial effects like using their ability. Unprepared parties will have even more difficulty closing gaps if they cannot cross the Web surfaces in the spiders' lair. Items like
Disintegrating Night Walkers or
Spiderstep Boots will help melee attackers overcome these obstacles.

Notes
- They have +1 bonuses to Strength and Dexterity on Tactician with resultant bonuses to Initiative, Armour Class, Attack rolls, and Saving throws, making an already fairly fierce early game enemy even deadlier.
