Patch 5.0.1 | Posted: September 25, 2012
This wild pet can be found on the outer areas around Twilight Grove in Duskwood. It only spawns at night.
Additionally, it can be found as a secondary opponent when challenging another wild pet in the area.
Widow spiderlings have plenty of time to explore Duskwood once they take care of their pesky family commitments.
Caught one at 2:54pm server time. Dusk spiderlings were up too. So it has no relation to IRL clock. I think it's in-game daynight cycle or something.
as of December 27 2019 this pet spawns at 9:30 pm est(this is also Server time)Â
I flew around forfeiting battles for almost a hour and right at 9:30 server time tons of them spawned West of Twilight GroveÂ
I can confirm it DOESN'T have to be NIGHT time to catch one. Just got mine as PRIMARY, it's 7 past midday (12:07) server time, so.... Keep looking ;)
EDIT: Found 2nd one FIVE minutes later ;))). Again as a primary ;).
I can confirm that it doesn't have to be when the sun is going down. It's currently 2:16PM server time and I caught one. It was raining, but I don't think that has anything to do with it. There seems to be one hanging out with a bunch of the dusk spiderlings.
This seems to be tied to the sun going down in-game, if you fly up high enough to see it
I can comfirm that these spawn at 8:30 PM server time.
These do not only spawn at night, currently 2pm server time and there are plenty around west of Twilight Grove.
Finally found my level 6 rare. 3 Aug 14 11:05 PM US PST in Duskwood at 32, 39.Â
Happy hunting!
Showed up sometime between 9-9:30pm server time. They respawn very quickly, so go nuts. Little green paws were popping up almost as quickly as I could kill them!
i think it was this one,but anyway there was a thing that said this would only be in the second place of a battle,but i found it lurking around!these guys are a lot like the REAL battle guys.one day,i was in a mine,and i ran into guys that were the real ones!u never know if there in there and this guy doesn't know!i might check out the mine again and see if they are!PS:if u don't have flight path,there's a shortcut across a river in the elwind forest.the real guys are 21 to 25!warning!
After a long night of battling common and uncommon Widow Spiderlings, my fellow band of Tiny Harvesters sat by the side of the road under a dark tree dripping with spider webs. We drank crude oil and unleaded gas. Our gears were tired; it had been a long night, when lo and behold a Widow sat down beside us. We were undaunted. It would be close, we were drunk from oil and gas, but we were more drunk for battle. After a short fight we caged the rare wily beast.
2.30.pm  got a green it was hiding in one of the tree crevaces. Thanks to ingame pet tracking cause I would never had see it.
And as Delffingers7 said that there was one in a tree.... yeah annoying , found the tree.(bottom of the area) but could not spot the spiderÂ
I was collecting the "unique to area" pets and annoyed at myself that I didn't pick up one of these the night before. Â Was by Raven Hill/Twilight Grove border checking out the Dusk hatchlings and there was a lone widow spiderling, sort of stuck in a tree! Â It was 10:30 am so it is possible to find one during the day. Â I grabbed it for ach, only a common but at least it saves me a trip back here. Â Duskwood gives me the heebie geebies!
Has anyone ever seen a main spawn? I am running around for a half hour, and still nothing. 830-9 server.
as previously mentioned, this spider only comes out at night. i saw they started popping up at 8:30pm server time, on rexxar. there were lots out camping for these buggers, so perhaps i didn't see them before hand. they can also double up as a second pet with all the others in the zone, saw mainly with skunks, dusk spiderlings, rats, and mice. good luck to those getting it, my rare was off the main road. also, i saw one in a tree that was untargetable, at (35.01, 53.06), on the raven hill side.
i captured an uncommon one of these today at 12:30 pm, and not as a secondary i was just entering and surrendering random battles to see if i could find one as a secondary and as i surrendered the 5th battle there he was, couldn't believe what i was seing
Remember to set your team up appropriately BEFORE you start hunting. This morning at about 0528 hrs I spotted a Widow Spiderling. I realized that I still had my big pets slotted and risked killing it rather than capturing it, as I paused to rotate to smaller pets *BOOM* the two on my screen blinked out at 0529 hrs. :-(
Oh well, there's always tomorrow morning as I need to start prepping for work! :-)
I have seen these as primary spawns as late as 8:00 am CST, but they DO come as secondaries other times of the day.
After thinking I was done for, witht hem being a 'night pet', reading that you can capture them as secondaries, gave me hope, my first day trying for one, opened a battle with 4 dusk spiderlings, hoping for this pet, no luck, so i flew over to the western side of duskwood, saw a black rat, decided to give it a shot, to my amazement, a rare widow spiderling as a secondary, during the day. Thanks to all the comments here, other wise i would have given up.
battled for like and hour and a half in total (over 2 days) got a poor quality as a 2nd to a skunk, then today got an uncommon 2nd to a dusky spiderling. Also confirming that you can catch these in the daylight hours. caught both the poor and the uncommon in amongst the black widow mobs, on the west side of Twilight Grove
