Fenumus, First of the Night is a unique boss located in Fenumus' Lair. It is one of the four Spirit Beasts. Portals to Fenumus' Lair can be obtained by using the beastcrafting recipe. The recipe was obtained by capturing Fenumal Hybrid Arachnid. Once obtained the recipe, player can purchase the beast from other players instead of capturing themselves, if they are playing in trade leagues. The recipe requires Fenumal Hybrid Arachnid and 3 other beasts.

  • Summon Spiders : Often summons at least 6 scorpion/spiders minions.
  • Chaos Spark Spiders : During the 2nd phase, every dozen of seconds, 4 webbed stones will pulsate green before unleashing a swarm of green little spiders dealing chaos damage.

Strategy

First of all, pack up some chaos resistance, it'll go a long way.

Fenumus has a low attack speed and only attack from a range, meaning if you continuously move around, it'll throw its dart at the wrong direction.

Both its spit mortar and ground stab have a charge up, so you can be ready to dodge them when it comes. When you see it preparing ground stab, move away from it and continue moving to dodge the web appearing at your feet. For spit mortar, it'll throw it in the direction it's facing, so try to get behind it, the projectile first few rebounds won't be too big, but the later will practically engulf half the room.

At 50% hp, you will be enwebbed and teleported to an underground mine. Obviously, any ground effect or totems will disappear, as well as debuffs on Fenumus.

The webbed stones will unleash their chaos spark when the 3rd green pulse ends, allowing you to easily position yourself to avoid getting shotgunned; single sparks do not deal much damages.

Do note that the poisons will last longer than usual, which will notably delay the energy shield recharge.
