How To Kill Spiders In Skyward Sword
Okay, let's talk Skyward Sword spiders. You know, the Skulltulas? Those creepy-crawlies that dangle and make unsettling clicking noises? Yeah, those.
Some might say there's a "right" way to deal with them. But I say, all's fair in love, war, and arachnid extermination in a video game!
The "Official" Method
Apparently, the intended way to defeat these eight-legged freaks involves a bit of precision. You're supposed to aim for their exposed backs. Easy peasy, right?
Just slice your sword, making sure that vulnerable rear is aligned with your swing. That's the "proper" way, supposedly.
But... Come On!
Look, I respect the intended game design. I really do. But sometimes, a girl (or guy!) just wants to whack a spider. With extreme prejudice.
Am I the only one who gets impatient? Do I really need to wait for the perfect angle? No, thanks!
My "Unorthodox" Approach
Here's my secret: Spin attacks, my friends! Spin attacks for everyone!
Just flail wildly with the Wiimote, unleashing a whirlwind of steel. It's less about finesse and more about... catharsis.
Sure, you might accidentally break a pot or two. But those Skulltulas? Toast. Utterly and delightfully toasted.
Is it elegant? Absolutely not. Is it effective? You bet your sweet bippies it is!
Bomb Them Back to the Stone Age
Okay, okay, hear me out. Bombs. Lovely, glorious bombs.
Why bother with delicate swordplay when you can just blow them to kingdom come? It's efficient, it's satisfying, and it sends a clear message: "This is my Hyrule, and you are not welcome in it!"
Some might call it overkill. I call it... problem-solving with pizzazz!
Arrows: For the Sniper Within
Got a bit of distance? Arrows are your friend!
Aim for the back (or heck, anywhere!) and let loose. It's a satisfying *thwack* and a quick dispatch.
Plus, you get to pretend you're a heroic archer. Double win!
The Jump Attack Gambit
Feeling brave? Try leaping at them and swinging mid-air!
It's risky. It's potentially embarrassing if you miss. But when it connects? Oh, the glory!
Just be prepared to faceplant if your timing is off. A small price to pay for such a bold maneuver.
Embrace the Chaos
Ultimately, the best way to kill Skulltulas in Skyward Sword is the way that brings you the most joy. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!
If that means flailing like a madman, so be it. If it means bombing them into oblivion, go for it! There are no rules in Hyrule spider warfare.
So grab your sword, your bombs, or whatever your weapon of choice may be, and get spider-slaying! Remember, the only bad method is the one that leaves you covered in spiderwebs. Ew.
Do you have your own preferred Skulltula-slaying technique? Let's hear it! Because frankly, I'm always looking for new and exciting ways to make those creepy crawlies disappear.
