How to beat the Frost Spider in Raid: Shadow Legends

The simplest way to beat Frost Spider is to bring **HP Burn** , keep your team alive, and either control or eliminate the spiderlings so the boss takes burn damage safely. If you lack strong burn champions, a **Block Revive** finisher like Armiger can also work as a manual backup plan.

Best core strategy

The common forum and guide advice is to focus on the spiderlings first, then let HP Burn tick the boss down. Players repeatedly note that two HP Burn champs make the fight much easier, because the boss can keep taking damage even while your team is playing defense.

A practical setup looks like this:

  • 1 or 2 HP Burn champions.
  • 1 healer or reviver.
  • 1 tanky support or protector.
  • 1 damage dealer or emergency finisher.

What to do in the fight

  1. Open by applying HP Burn to the spiderlings if possible.
  1. Keep your team healthy with heals, shields, or revives.
  1. Use single-target damage on the dangerous spiderling if one is cleansing or causing problems.
  1. When the boss is low, use a Block Revive hit or finisher if you have one.

One guide specifically says to target the left spiderling first, then the right, so the burns can spread pressure onto the boss.

Useful champions

Community suggestions repeatedly mention champions like Artak, Drexthar, Geomancer, Ninja, and Armiger as strong options depending on your roster. Drexthar is often highlighted as a long-term value pick because his passive HP Burn keeps pressure on the boss even in awkward turns. Armiger shows up as the budget-friendly fallback because his Block Revive can finish the boss when burn damage alone is not enough.

Why teams fail

The most common mistake is relying on a single burn source without enough survival tools. Another issue is using a champion whose debuffs get cleansed or resisted too often, which makes the boss feel much harder than expected. Some players also report that manual timing matters a lot, especially when saving burn or Block Revive skills for the end.

Forum-style advice

“You need to kill the small spider that removes debuffs usually, so 2 HP burners + tanks/supports should do the job.”

“Focus the left spiderling and apply HP burn, then apply HP burn to the right spiderling, these will then tick the bosses HP down.”

“Block revive if you cannot keep the HP burn on the boss.”

Quick build priorities

  • Accuracy for your HP Burn champions, so the debuffs land reliably.
  • Enough HP and defense to survive spiderling pressure.
  • Speed so your supports and burners cycle turns often.
  • Manual control if your team is close but inconsistent.

TL;DR: bring HP Burn, keep the spiderlings under control, and use Block Revive as a backup finisher.
