Darkvision
A monster with darkvision can see perfectly well in areas of darkness and dim light, though such vision is in black and white only. Some forms of magical darkness, such as a 4th-level Darkness spell, block normal darkvision. A monster with Greater Darkvision, however, can see through even these forms of magical darkness.
Web SenseThe hunting spider has imprecise Tremorsense to detect the vibrations of creatures touching its web.
Spring Upon Prey (attack)Requirements Initiative has not yet been rolled.
Trigger A creature touches the hunting spider's web while the spider is on it.
Effect The hunting spider automatically notices the creature and Strides, Climbs, or Descends on a Web before it rolls initiative.
Descend on a Web (move)The hunting spider moves straight down up to 40 feet, suspended by a web line. It can hang from the web or drop off. The distance it Descends on a Web doesn't count for falling damage.
A creature that successfully Strikes the web (AC 20, Hardness 3, 5 HP) severs it, causing the spider to fall.
