Grounded Black Widow locations are where some of the toughest fights in the game will happen. Grounded has a long list of creepy crawlies that you can encounter and defeat for their loot. Black Widows are the toughest enemies in the game outside of boss fights, and arguably tougher than the bosses themselves. Here are all four of the Grounded Black Widow locations.
Grounded Black Widow Locations: Near Moldorc Castle
The Black Widow near the Moldorc Castle playset is quite easy to find once you get to the castle. Start on the south side of the castle and look to the south. You should fairly easily spot a Field Station near the fence. Head towards that, then from there continue south. Just passed the station there is a large pile of rocks.
Go to the rock formation and look around it to find the way underneath. Below the rocks is the Black Widow’s lair.
Grounded Black Widow Locations: Car Battery
The next location is near a car battery in the upper part of the garden. Just east of the southeast corner of the shed deck, you will find this location. It is near a car battery, and you will recognise it when you find what looks like a cracked rock in a hole. The hole is at the bottom of a mound of dirt, and it can only be accessed with a bomb.
Bring a bomb to the spot and throw it onto the cracked rock. This will clear the rock out of the way and allow you to go into the cave. Inside the cave, you will see some Raw Science floating above a small hole. Be warned, the hole is a one-way ticket to the Black Widow, so don’t just drop down all willy-nilly. The Raw Science was clearly some developer’s idea of a mean joke, but if you are ready to fight the spider, then head on down.
Grounded Black Widow Locations: Toolbox
This one is further up the garden, but quite easy to get to. In the upper part of the garden, just east of the shed, there is a large red toolbox. Go to the toolbox then go to the eastern side of it. There is a dip in the ground that goes underneath, head down there.
In this crevice, there is a cave that leads underneath the toolbox. You will know it is the correct spot by the webs covering it. Head inside and up into the cave to find this Black Widow’s lair.
Grounded Black Widow Locations: Undershed
This one is the trickiest to get to, as it requires access to the Undershed. To get into the Undershed, you need to defeat the four previous bosses in the main story. Follow the main quest and you will eventually be led to the Undershed. You first gain access by swimming under a gap on the eastern side of the shed, then enter through the door. Go through this lab until you exit into the Undershed area.
As you exit the door of the lab, stick to the right. Jump on the cable and follow it until it goes up to the ceiling, at which point you can jump down to the right onto a pipe. Follow the pipe until it ends, and then go left across the screwdriver. Be careful not to fall off the narrow part of the screwdriver. Once you are across, you will notice you are in a dark area, and there will be a well-lit area in the distance to your right. Go to that area, be wary of enemies, and you will find the light is pouring down into a massive hole.
On the opposite side and at the bottom of this hole, you should be able to see there is a cave and the cave entrance is covered in spider webs. This is the Black Widow’s cave. To get to it, you need to make your way down as carefully as possible. Go around the right side and look down to see there are some roots poking out of the wall. Make your way down to the roots, then use the roots to get across to the cave entrance. Then you can simply head inside to find the Black Widow.
That is it for the Grounded Black Widow locations. Once you are done with the Black Widows and grabbed their loot, you should check out our Grounded Pond Moss guide for what to use it on.
