Alternatly it could hit some exploding barrels. Which obliterates the wall your flankers where using as cover.
Not to mention your flankers.

"The latter, of courssse! We cannot claim to have stopped the goblinsss if we let them raid!" Miscria sounds incredulous at the very idea.

Yeah that won't remotely be enough. You'll want to be somewhere in the realm of 50-100k for anything with a skull icon.

It's basically what causes every situation in the actual I, Robot book. Robots being given vague or contradictory orders and screwing things up.

Well, generally spider silk is considered "strong as steel" for its tensile strength vs density, so if this huntsman can spew out steel cable-thick string, it'll be fine.
It depends on the type of silk. Species matters as well. The "strong as steel" stuff is dragline silk, used to make the primary framework of a proper web, and thus it's not something a huntsman spider would use regularly (if at all).

In the game, however, they have a lot of web-related abilities that imply that the giant ones, in fact, can.
Of course, this is a fantasy spider with fantasy abilities, so....yeah, silk could probably be used for rappelling.

Huntsman Spiders don't really make webs, so...probably not all that strong. They'd only use silk to create sacks for their eggs, and I doubt you'd need much in the way of tensile strength for that.

Huckleberries are just good stuff all around. I'd love to try some huckleberry mead or wine or what-not.

Keep at it. Miscria's been through worse than a bit of chill in the air.

What's the difference between recovering your corpse and repairing it?
Didn't happen much to me, but I think you only get back the plug-in chips you were wearing when you died if you recover. Repairing gives you an AI-controlled ally. I always just recovered all the online corpses I found; the bonus XP for doing so was worth more than a temporary ally.
Recovering corpses also provides a fairly decent heal. If you're injured and don't want to use a recovery item (or are out of such), corpse recovery can get you back to fighting shape.

I almost never repair; the AI-controlled party member never seems to last more than a minute or two, while recovery provides healing, temporary buffs, money, and exp.
