Bug queen

The bug queen is a gigantic, grotesque insect that lives in the Freedom City sewers. It is particularly dangerous to newer players exploring the sewers, who can easily be devoured by the bug queen. When approaching the bug queen, she will attempt to seal off the passage behind you with sticky webs. You can cut through these webs by attacking them (eg. type kill south to attack in the southward direction where the webs are).

Escaping her

In the event you get swallowed by the bug queen, you will still be alive inside her, yet you will be slowly dissolved by digestive acids if you do not escape in time. If nobody is nearby to cut you free from her gut, fear not: the bug queen hates smoke. Smoke a cigarette, pull the pin on a smoke bomb or spew, and she will vomit you out.

If nobody cuts you out, and you can't smoke your way out, then face it: you're fucked.

You'll probably be ready to kill her and hunt the arachnos in the sub-sewer once you're at 20 total weapon skill, though some individual variation is normal here depending on your gear, mutations, and chosen weapon type. She attacks slowly for moderate amounts of slash damage. She's actually pretty weak if you come prepared to escape her gullet.

Her bounty

Should you best the bug queen in combat. You can steal her delicious eggs which you can either sell them to Avram for a nice sum of money, or use for a couple other things. Killing her also opens up the path to the Sub-Sewers where arachnos reside.
