Although they are spider-like mobs, Webber cannot befriend them and they will attack Webber if approached.It appears to share the same base model with the Boarilla, a Mob exclusive to the Don't Starve Together event The Forge.Spider monkeys will not change aggro until its first target is dead.It is recommended that you keep at least 2 alive at all times and not kill them or chop cocooned trees while Rabid Beetles are active as they and Snaptooths may render them extinct especially when they try to move to their new nests. Which means it is perfectly safe to regularly kill Spider Monkeys to farm their drops or make chopping down the cocooned trees easier as long as you don't kill all of them.

Each Spider Monkey herd spawns 1 Spider Monkey per day until it reaches its size cap.This makes Silk easily obtainable, albeit at a slow rate. If a Spider Monkey's Cocooned Tree is destroyed, or if it got carried away from it, it will attempt to "use" another Cocooned Tree to find another Rainforest Tree off-screen to transform into a Cocooned Tree. However, care must be taken not to stand too close to them, otherwise they will attack the player.

However, unlike Spiders, they cannot enter inside their Den, as it is a tree they simply keep wandering around it during the Day, and sleep next to it at Night, which allows the player to attack them by surprise.Įven if a herd of Spider Monkeys spawns in the same Den, they do not assist each other, and can be targeted individually without fear of alerting the others. Just like Spiders, Spider Monkeys have their own Den, which consists of a Cocooned Tree surrounded by webbing which slows the player when stepped on. If left alive, a Spider Monkey will periodically drop Manure. Upon death, it can drop Monster Meat, Silk, Beard Hair, and Spider Glands. It can be hit 1-2 times per kite, 3-4 times if they are roaring. It is a huge ape-like creature with spider legs on its back. ”Ī Spider Monkey is an aggressive Monster exclusive to the Hamlet DLC. “ Because being a giant ape wasn't enough, you had to add spider legs.
