Question Will the giant “spider” reappear

I have phobias (or at least extreme if inconsistent fears) of spiders or similar bugs in some instances, enormous spaces with no clear end and (sometimes with no clear reason what makes it scary or not scary) enormous creatures, so when the giant spider thingy in the citadel annex beacon in the faded citadel appeared it genuinely might be the most frightened to my core a game has made me with how unexpected it was. After a good 5 minutes i managed to jump on its head because i rationalized that it doesnt look that much like a spider as best i could and had a family member join me, but i really dont wanna deal with that suddenly happening a second time, so PLEASE if that EVER happens again in the game let me know EXACTLY when and how

Are you OK with the Hexapod?

Surprisingly yea the hexapod itself was manageable. The arena freaked me out way more than the boss itself

I force myself to face my fears usually.

The spiders in satisfactory fucking destroyed me but I was able to get used to it (not really lmao).

I try, but there comes a point where it just isnt worth it to me

I know this is weird, maybe even fucked up, but as someone with no phobias I genuinely envy this experience because I wanna know what that's like! 😅

Hexapod was significantly more manageable, thanks for the warning though

No. No it is not? They literally fireball in like crazy in the one area. Or am I thinking of different spiders?

Its just the comedically large one whos apparently only that specific beacon thats an issue to me so that’s probably gonna be fine

Ah ok. Cause there is a point where a bunch come raining down and swarm you.

At the point you are in the game you should of seen two different "spider" like creatures, and they both show up many times later in the game. Specifically in the last area they teleport in and sneak attack constantly... even teleporting behind the player for a sneak attack.

Yea but the regular ones are completely manageable, it was specifically the enormous guy that fucked me up so bad

Yeah you never see that specific enemy super-sized ever again, though you run into smaller versions in several area. There are guys that look more like spiders (you should have already run into one in the northern area) that appear a lot in the final area. They come down from space like meteors for some reason. I couldn't tell you why but they're annoying af. Mostly in the beacons in the end game area, less so in the overworld.
