Metalback Spiders[1], also known as Bugs[2], are large, armored-plated enemies that appeared in Spyro the Dragon and in the Reignited Trilogy remaster. They are found only in the High Caves.
Characteristics
Physical Appearance
In the original game, the Metalback Spiders resembled stag beetles with armored-plating.
In the Spyro Reignited Trilogy, they take after their fan-given name, resembling more of an arachnid coated in silver armored plating.
Tactics
When entering High Caves, avoid these spiders at all costs. Run away from them and jump onto any higher or lower ground you can find to get a break and see where to run next. Once you get either the superflame or Supercharge powerup, they can be defeated just as easily as any other enemy.
