Children of Rom ❘ ロマの子ら	Regular Enemy

Description Spiders present solely when Rom, the Vacuous Spider is near. Blocking Damage & Status Reduction [%] Phys Arc Fire Bolt SP RP 90 90 70 50 60 80 Blocking damage: Children of Rom like few other enemies (Executioner, Labyrinth Warrior (Sword & Shield), Huntsman (Torch and Shield)) have blocking animation and will take reduced damage (and status build-up) when hit during the animation. Strategy These spiders are very weak against lightning, so use the Tonitrus or power up other weapons with Bolt Paper to inflict the most possible damage. They take drastically reduced damage from attacks to their heads, so you'll have to quickstep beside or behind them in order to reach their weak points. Weapons with wide horizontal attacks are well-suited to dealing with the small spiders and can eliminate several at once, especially when augmented with Bolt Paper. Quickstep toward them and strike their bodies with melee attacks, but avoid hitting their heads as you'll inflict very little damage by doing so. Beware of their jumping headbutt and web attacks as both deal heavy damage, and don't fight more than one at a time if possible to avoid being surrounded. Notes Preset Chalice Dungeons: Lower Pthumerian Labyrinth All enemies and bosses (except hunter enemies) have 999 frenzy resistance, despite that they are still vulnerable to such status. The only way to see it without modding is to use Shaman Bone Blade on enemy inflicting frenzy to attack others. [test video] Children of Rom serving as boss support for Rom, the Vacuous Spider will drop 0 blood echoes. Children of Rom are considered a kin even though they are not listed as such in the official guide. [tested] Boss Support: Having additional cooperators does not affect HP of Children of Rom unlike Rom's HP. Root Chalice Dungeons: There are, along with Additional Rites and Random Effects, some other completely hidden characteristics a dungeon can take on when created. These are mostly related to the enemies you'll find in the dungeon and how large its structure is. Many won't have a noticeable effect on the dungeon, but there are a few that can really shake things up. The most notable are the Spider Dungeon effect, in which the basic enemies are replaced by Children of Rom, which of course means the boss will be Rom, the Vacuous Spider.

Pungent Blood Cocktails don't attract this enemy, making the item ineffective. Shaman Bone Blades affect this enemy, making it hostile to other enemies.

Base Level: Blood Echoes, HP, Damage and Def. Multipliers

For enemies that also appear (or exclusively appear) in dungeons, their stats will be shown at the base level, because their exact stats at any given point are calculated from these base values. The basic formula is: Total Value = Base x A x B x C x D. Multipliers written down below were datamined directly from the game files. Multiplier A represents depth (1 - 5) of the chalice dungeon; multiplier B is layer (1 - 4) of the specific chalice dungeon; multiplier C is used when dungeon is Pthumeru Ihyll; multiplier D is for calculating blood echoes when additional curse rite is used.
