REPO Spider Jar Guide
Few valuables in REPO make players flinch quite like the Spider Jar. Found mostly around Swiftbroom Academy, this creepy collectible looks harmless until it breaks. What follows is easily one of the most disturbing visual effects in the game.
What The Spider Jar Does
The Spider Jar is a valuable worth around up to 5000 credits. When picked up, it behaves like a normal item. But if it’s dropped or shattered, the glass releases a wave of small black spiders that scatter across the player’s screen. They crawl directly toward your viewpoint, covering it with a swarm effect for a few seconds before fading.
It doesn’t deal damage or attract monsters, but it’s pure nightmare fuel. The spiders are entirely visual, meant to distract and mess with your nerves during tense moments.
Where To Find The Spider Jar
Swiftbroom Academy is the most common spot to locate the jar. It usually spawns in storage rooms or side hallways that contain other potion bottles and glass valuables. It’s rare to find more than one per mission, and they tend to appear on shelves or desks.
How To Use It Safely
Always carry it carefully, since even a small drop can trigger the swarm effect.
If you want to prank your squad, toss it at their feet—it won’t harm them, but it’ll ruin their focus.
Sell it before testing it, since breaking it erases its value.
Avoid carrying it near corners or elevators where physics jitter can cause it to shatter early.
Tips For Dealing With The Spider Effect
The spider crawl lasts a little bit then fades completely.
It blocks almost your entire view, so try not to handle it mid-combat.
It can cause minor lag or camera shake depending on your graphics settings.

Final Blurb
