Broodmother Lysrix (Alpha) — Detailed Guide
Broodmother Lysrix (Alpha) is the hardest difficulty of the giant spider boss. It has far more health and damage than the Gamma and Beta fights. Tribes beat it for the biggest
Element payout of the three and for the Tek engrams that only Alpha bosses unlock,
Tek Replicator among them.
Where to find it
The Broodmother is fought in a boss arena on The Island, The Center, Valguero, Crystal Isles and Fjordur in ASE, and it is also part of ASA.
How to get one
It cannot be tamed and is immune to torpor. You summon it at the boss terminal at level 70 or higher. The tribute is one
Artifact of the Clever, the Hunter and the Massive, plus 10 each of
Argentavis Talon,
Sarcosuchus Skin,
Sauropod Vertebra and
Titanoboa Venom. Fjordur also asks for a
Beyla Relic.
Uses
- Rewards: Element, a
Spider Flag, the
Alpha Broodmother Trophy and the Alpha-tier Tek engrams.
Tips
Its webs slow anything they hit, many of its attacks build torpor, and it keeps summoning
Araneo minions. Fight from mounts, not on foot. The
Megatherium's insect-killing buff works well against it. Bring a bred, well-mutated team.
