About

The Araneo (Gauntlet) is an invertebrate creature exclusive to the Genesis DLC, functioning as a variant of the standard Araneo designed for use within gauntlet-style encounters. It shares the Araneo name tag with its base counterpart but is implemented as a distinct entity under its own class.

Admins working with Genesis gauntlet missions should reference the entity ID SpiderS_Character_BP_Gauntlet_C when spawning or scripting encounters involving this variant. Using the base Araneo entity ID in a gauntlet context may not produce the intended behavior, so targeting this specific class ensures the correct creature is summoned.

Because this variant is tied to Genesis mission content, it is most relevant on Genesis map servers. On other maps or outside gauntlet scenarios, the standard Araneo is the appropriate choice.
