The Spider Forest is a fairly large wilderness area where players begin their journey into Act III. It includes the entrances to two (spider invested) dungeons - the Spider Cavern and the Arachnid Lair, from which this forest probably lends it's name. The waypoint always appears near one of the two dungeons. When the player leaves the Kurast Docks for the first time, they will encounter the Dark Wanderer himself. After a short while, the Wanderer disappears in a flash, spawning several Flesh Beasts after vanishing.
