Talk:Spider

Nightcrawler/Spider

The name in game is relevant for humanoids, quest npcs and such, who are singular and have only one name. But it seems unlikely there is any one given name given to a shape of a monster, that all have different names depending on their level, yes? If I am not mistaken, is Nightcrawlers not what one particular species of spider is called? Anarchangel 16:52, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

I named the species by what the daily mission Nomad Camp told me to kill, which was nightcrawlers, not spiders. So far as a level 43 froob i have not encountered any spiders or nightcrawlers, only Bloodcreepers in several variations, which counted as nightcrawlers for the quest. So my impression is that the whole species is called "Nightcrawler", with "Bloodcreeper" and possibly "Spider" later on, being subspecies. That's why I moved the article.

That is an excellent rationale. I am utterly convinced. Thank you for bringing us Funcom's own name for the species. Anarchangel 17:39, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

I so wish that had been sarcasm instead of spinelessness. Anarchangel (talk) 22:53, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
