Cragspiders are enemies in Dark Souls.
Location[]
They are encountered in Blighttown, namely throughout the swamp and upper walkways by the entrance from the Valley of the Drakes.
Description[]
Cragspiders are slow, weak, fire breathing arthropod-like creatures with small, nigh useless wings. They telegraph their attacks long before dealing actual damage and have slow recoveries, making them easy to deal with.
They should pose little threat to the player unless they are caught unaware or allow the spiders to group up and attack.

Trivia[]
- This creature's eyes resemble that of Quelaag's lower body (and Quelaag herself is located below the Blighttown where the Cragspiders live) and this trait, coupled with its warped body and humanoid hands, suggest that it's a demon-corrupted monster or even a lesser demon.
