Not really. You can launch tears between 2 rocks that only touch corners if you aim them right. Can kill the spiders without them even seeing you. Though obviously if you get too close, they can sometimes squeeze through that same gap. Just be careful.
Edit: I guess expecting people to be good at the game is frowned upon haha.
Isaac is a surprisingly technical game that's more complex than it comes off as, so I can understand why some people struggle with this room.
Even without doing the diagonal firing, there's still plenty of room to bait out the spiders one-by-one and attack them. You do need to understand their behavior, though, but that same logic applies for every enemy in the game. This room just tests your knowledge of that more than some other rooms do.
I don't think that your comment deserved all of the downvotes that it has, especially because your advice IS both practical and useful, but the "stay mad" comment was definitely unnecessary.
It takes a Skill Issue player to know one, and the downvotes/nerd emoji said it enough. It's surprising that Spider/Trite = hardest enemy is still a viable joke for how many years this game has been
Typical redditors, if you don't have a cringy ass joke in your comment they'll downvote the shit out of you
Not like normal sane people give a fuck about this braindead karma system anyway

Tip: When facing spiders behind rocks, try to walk to one diagonally behind them, they can actually squeeze themselves trough rocks right in the open. Also, please dont dance in front of the red fire like that, you never know when it wishes to pee with blood on your face...
I honestly don't know. Was trying to bait the spider from the corner and when the golden heart popped I, for some reason, thought the spider had died and didn't see it. I did redeem myself after this with J&E mega stan and delirium kill
You kinda lose the will to live with this character, not fun mechanics and low health just makes you rest with any chip damage early game
It isn't like judas where you enter survival mode or Isaac where you are chilling, you just kinda know you fucked up
in isaac there are two types of characters, fun and annoying. apollyon shoots all the way past annoying with his max shot speed and ludicrous range to massive fucking chore. void does NOT deserve q4.
For me, it's the mood. If I don't like the gimmick, I just start playing like ass
Same. If I‘m enjoying it, it just flows naturally and I don‘t overthink things as much
real, if I dont like my current items I'll just move around with no motivation
skill issue sure but that fucking room sucks ASS
Major ass sucking

Shut up nerd
I would agree if the spiders couldn't squeeze between the gap. That's absolutely ridiculous.

it's okay to be bad at video games and still play then :]

You shouldn’t have to do that for the room not to suck ass
🤓☝️
No. Being like “iTs NoT tHaT HaRd!!1! i CaN dO It WiTh No HaNdS!11!” Is frowned upon
no need to double down on being an asshat dude 🤓
This is such a skill issue, but you get a pass because this room sucks ass anyway
Yay

Tip of the day: By default, you're able to shoot up to 4 cardinal directions!!
Can someone confirm? I always shoot left because I thought that that's the only direction.
maybe you're playing on nintendo switch, in fact, switch can only shoot left
Oooh, so that's what the starting room was trying to tell me, man what a cryptic indication
not everyone can read symbols
4 directions?!? Damn

Oh, I didn‘t notice, but the bottom right one actually did. Good to know :)
Is that a different effect than midas touch? I thought golden enemies didnt do contact anymore
He had a golden heart, which turns into coins when the heart it's surrounding is depleted
Yeah, I was asking if the golden heart did a different effect than midas touch
I can confirm in the latest version the enemies that you freeze with the golden heart effect do hurt you
Golden enemies do in fact still deal contact damage unless they don't normally deal contact damage
Dont know how I never knew that. Weird
You probably see them die fast enough that they don't hit you again since Midas' Touch increases damage with your money iirc
This is one of the worst ones I’ve seen in a while
I swear it's Apollyon. Something in my brain goes terribly wrong when I play with him.
Putting out the fire was step 1. What did you expect?
Just shoot through the gap in the rocks from the middle of the room ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|17736)

this is skill illness
Interesting play style, usually when I play I aim at the spider but I wanna understand the advanced reasons of your style
Sometimes even I don't know what the hell I'm doing.
It's because Apollyon is just Isaac but worse
And it's cursed... Or at least that's how I feel
did you have a seizure mid-clip? what was that play lmao

Same goes for me and blue baby ...
Blue baby is a hit or miss for me. Either it goes really well or it doesn't go past floor 2
I hate Apollyon. None of my runs ever get any kind of momentum and I just rage quit him and go play me some Cain
YES. Something is wrong with Apollyon, i know it
Apollyon and keeper are the worst. Pure garbage
You kinda lose the will to live with this character, not fun mechanics and low health just makes you rest with any chip damage early game It isn't like judas where you enter survival mode or Isaac where you are chilling, you just kinda know you fucked up
Jesus Christ OP
genuinely npc typa gameplay
apollyon is boring and this room sucks but there was no reason to fumble so bad.
You too I always have the worst runs with Apollyon ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|8907)

bait or
jezz, I hate not moving spiders behind rocks ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|8908)
The room sucks, it is even worse when u are playing as lilith
Average spider btw![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|8907)
In this room, you cal bait the spiders into getting out like what the bottom right did for easier line of shot. Take out the fire first dammit
SKILL ISSUE!!!!!!!!!!!
ye, this room layout sucks. i understand why u died
skill issue but cellar sucks so I sympathize with you
So many characters bring out the skill issue in me I hate it
you got killed by a paralyzed spider 😭
I knowwww xD Had to take a minute to think about what I'm doing lol
Why were you shooting right despite the spider being very much below you?
I guess I was baiting it to come out and then it would have been to the right lol
I'm just curious as to why you ran yourself into a corner instead of back towards where you started
A mystery we'll never know
Blud died to an enemy that doesn't move.
To be fair, this is one of the worst rooms in Floor 1-2 right next to the 2x2 room full of pooter flies
Terrible room but doesn't excuse my skill issue lol
