Arachnes are an enemy in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.

Profile

Physical description

They have a yellow and black-striped body, and their appearance resembles that of a real tarantula.

In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Arachnes are only encountered in Rose Way.

Battle

In battle, Arachnes mainly attack with physical moves or with their sole special move, Venom Drool, which may poison one of Mario's party members.

Strategy

Arachnes are weak against Ice, so Mallow's Snowy move is effective against them. However, considering that Snowy is learned later than when Rose Way is first accessed, such an opportunity is unlikely. Bringing Able Juices can help in case a party member becomes poisoned.
