Booster Pack Heroes Foil Small Spider Farming Guide

How do you get the foil small spider?

This route comes from the developer’s replies in the Steam discussion about finding the foil small spider. When asked whether players should wait during ordinary waves or preserve the boss, Jordy specifically explained that the boss supplies the eggs.

Part of the encounter	Confirmed detail	Practical implication
Location	The developer directs players to replay the Plane of Nature	Return there for this particular foil
Boss	The Spider Queen spawns the relevant eggs	Keep her alive during the attempt
Spawn sequence	Small spiders come from those eggs	Watch the boss’s offspring
Updated behavior	An update made foil small spiders easier to find	Check your installed version before farming

The actionable recommendation is to prioritize an encounter that lasts long enough for the queen to produce small spiders. Your usual approach to clearing the chapter quickly may work against that goal.

There is no documented promise that one replay, one egg batch, or one boss defeat will complete the hunt. The developer confirms where to look and what must remain alive, but does not provide a guaranteed completion time or explain the exact event that registers the foil discovery.

What changed in patch 1.0.30D?

For a foil small spider attempt, the relevant improvement is explicit: patch 1.0.30D made the Spider Queen’s foil small spider easier to find. The announcement does not explain the underlying calculation or publish a before-and-after percentage.

These instructions concern the retail Steam game, which launched on November 10, 2026, according to the official Steam listing. The evidence covered here was collected on November 11, 2026.

Several changes in the same patch are relevant to players returning for collection cleanup:

Patch change	What the announcement establishes	Limit of that information
Foil small spider improvement	Finding the Spider Queen’s foil offspring became easier	No exact odds or guarantee are supplied
Continued play after acts 1 and 2	Players can keep playing those acts, with quests continuing to progress	The notes do not describe every replay control
Achievement fixes	Some achievements that could not unlock were repaired	The notes do not identify every affected achievement

These details come from the official patch 1.0.30D announcement.

Before spending time on repeated attempts, check that your installation includes this patch. Advice written before the improvement may describe a more frustrating experience.

Keep version comparisons specific. Older demo discussions do not establish current retail behavior, and the Steam announcement alone does not confirm that every mobile or browser build contains the same adjustment. The documented change is an improvement to finding this enemy variant, not evidence of a newly guaranteed reward.

How to keep the Spider Queen alive longer

A useful foil small spider setup needs to preserve the source of the eggs while allowing you to remain in the encounter. That recommendation follows the developer’s explanation; the available evidence does not establish an optimal team.

Start by watching what actually ends your attempt. If the queen dies almost immediately, increasing damage will not address the problem identified in the developer’s instructions.

A practical sequence is:

1. Replay the Plane of Nature. This is the location Jordy identifies for the hunt.
2. Observe how quickly the queen dies. Determine whether your normal setup gives her time to produce eggs.
3. Reduce damage where your available setup permits. The purpose is to extend her survival, rather than improve foil odds directly.
4. Watch the eggs and resulting small spiders. These are the relevant spawns described by the developer.
5. Check whether your missing foil has registered. The supplied replies do not specify the exact registration trigger.

Community reports illustrate why a single loadout recommendation would be misleading. One player said three basic-pack soldiers still killed the queen too quickly, even with the mouse moved away. The same player later described using one frozen tank for taunting and still waiting through many waves without seeing a foil.

What you observe	Source-based recommendation	What it does not prove
The queen dies before producing many offspring	Try a setup that deals less damage, if available	A particular hero count will always work
Moving the mouse away does not preserve her	Reassess the damage from the rest of your setup	Cursor positioning alone solves the encounter
The queen survives and produces small spiders	Continue watching the relevant spawns	A foil must appear within a fixed interval

Those examples are player experience, not controlled tests. They support paying attention to your own damage output, but they do not establish a universal minimum-damage composition.

The useful distinction is between keeping the encounter going and guaranteeing the desired variant. A setup may accomplish the first without ensuring the second.

The launch trailer by Funday Games shows the game’s general pack-opening and tower-defense loop. It is a gameplay overview, rather than a demonstration of this guide’s specific objective.

Why the foil can still be missing

A slow foil small spider hunt does not, by itself, establish that your save is broken. Even after the update, community reports described unsuccessful attempts.

In the same Steam discussion, one player reported approximately 20–30 waves without a foil small spider. That is a single player’s account. It cannot establish the game’s actual probability, an average farming time, or a point after which a foil becomes guaranteed.

Use the visible problem to decide what to investigate:

Situation	What the available evidence says	Reasonable next step
The queen dies too quickly	A player reported this even with a small team	Adjust your setup to preserve her longer
Small spiders appear, but no foil appears	A player reported a lengthy unsuccessful attempt after the update	Continue without assuming a fixed completion window
A forest spider boss appears invulnerable after importing an older demo save	The developer identified an older-demo compatibility bug	Compare your situation with that specific bug report

The save issue deserves separate treatment. In the Steam discussion about an apparently invulnerable forest spider, Jordy attributed the problem to saves imported from older demo versions. He stated that only saves from the latest demo update were compatible with the full game and recommended resetting progress for that reported issue.

That developer response addresses a particular compatibility failure. An ordinary run without a foil does not establish that you have the same problem, so a reset should not become a routine farming step.

Likewise, an achievement that fails to unlock needs its own investigation. Patch 1.0.30D repaired some achievement problems, but its notes do not establish that obtaining this spider fixes every collection-related achievement. Keep the missing enemy variant, a possible save incompatibility, and an achievement problem as separate observations when describing an issue.

What remains unconfirmed before your next attempt?

The foil small spider route is documented, but its timing is not. Knowing that distinction helps you spend your next attempt on the relevant encounter without relying on an invented farming schedule.

The supplied developer replies and patch notes leave several questions unanswered:

• Exact foil frequency: No percentage or average interval is published.
• A guaranteed number of attempts: No replay count, egg count, or wave threshold is confirmed.
• A required Spider Queen variant: The developer’s instructions do not establish that the queen must herself be foil.
• An optimal farming build: No official team composition, damage value, or relic combination is specified.
• The discovery trigger: The supplied explanation does not say precisely when the foil entry registers.

The opening player in the discussion described receiving other boss-associated foil entities through foil boss victories. That is player experience, and it should not become a universal rule for this encounter. The developer’s response instead identifies the queen’s eggs as the source to focus on.

General pack-opening descriptions also do not establish a shortcut for this enemy. The official publisher page describes booster packs containing heroes and spells; the spider-specific developer response directs players to the Plane of Nature encounter.

For your next attempt, check the patch, return to that plane, and observe whether your setup lets the queen keep spawning eggs. Those are the supported decisions. Claims about special foil upgrades, guaranteed boss rewards, or precise completion times would require additional evidence.

FAQ

Where should I farm the foil small spider?

Replay the Plane of Nature. Developer Jordy identifies that location and explains that the Spider Queen produces eggs from which small spiders emerge. Preserve the queen long enough to allow those spawns. The available evidence does not establish a separate ordinary-wave farming route.

Do I need to keep the Spider Queen alive?

Yes. When directly asked whether players should let the boss live or wait for normal waves, the developer instructed them to preserve her because she supplies the eggs. Reducing your damage is a recommendation based on that explanation, rather than an officially specified build.

Does patch 1.0.30D guarantee a foil small spider?

No guarantee is stated. The patch announcement says the variant became easier to find, without providing exact odds or a maximum waiting period. Community reports still describe unsuccessful attempts after the update, although individual reports cannot measure the overall probability.

Should I reset my progress if the foil will not appear?

A missing foil alone is not the compatibility problem described by the developer. His reset recommendation concerned an apparently invulnerable forest spider after importing an older demo save. If that specific history and symptom match your situation, review the linked bug discussion before applying its remedy.
