The Arachnithid Exploder is an enemy that appears in Serious Sam: Tormental.
Overview[]
The Arachnithid Exploder is a variant of the Arachnithid Matriarch schema that was combined with the Bombhead schema.
Appearances[]
They spawn in groups during the boss fight with the Matriarch in Nightmare Caves.
Behavior and skills[]
The Exploder's only attack is to explode into the player. They also explode after being killed. Like other explosive enemies, the player can set off a chain reaction by blowing up a Black Arachnoid that is next to other ones. When they die, they turn into an Arachnithid Terror.
Tactics[]
- Just like with the Bombhead, avoid Exploders as often as possible. Use the Sledgehammer to keep them away if you're being swarmed by them or other enemies.
- Since they are very weak enemies, it only takes one Gun shot to kill them.
- Lure them into the center to have the Devouer kill them, or have them lined up with other enemies to blow them up.
- With groups of them, the Machinegun or Shotgun work well.
