Corrupted spider queen

The Corrupted Spider Queen appears near Branka's Journal (Anval of the Void) in one of the large caves in the NW corner of Ortan Thaig. When you first engage her, she will shoot a web at the closest party members, trapping them temporarily. She will then ascend into the ceiling and two corrupted spiders will appear. Shortly thereafter, she will return and begin attacking your party with poison spit and webs. If you decide to engage her in melee, she will periodically ascend into the ceiling, bringing more corrupted reinforcements. However, I found it easiest to simply engage her from a distance, having my mages pummel her with spells, my rogue hit her with a bow and equipped Oghren with a crossbow, and trapped her with a blizzard spell. With periodic healings and continual attacks, she was down in no time. Then, her reinforcements arrived after she was dead all at once and I then attacked those at close range.
