just take the death and rez fast -- a fast enough rez will get no buff, but you'll usually get one buff per death. just need to dps and not have stupid deaths (from frontals, etc.). Have killed it with about 250k dps and only gotten 6 buffs i think. when i was learning the fight, with roughly 250k dps, that's enough to counter as much as 10 of the buffs, past that, you need more dps as it is a crawl.
anyone know the right-click option for destroying the cocoons on the spider fight? I only had one attempt earlier today before the spider wouldn't repop, so I couldn't get the right-click option.
e.g.
eq2execute apply_verb ${Actor[cocoon].ID} Whatever_the_Right_click_option_is
