Boots of Arachnea not working

[Masterjack]

Description: My character Buddy had them on during Pseudonym's "Offensive Quest". The last spider (Shambling Doom Tyrant) cast what seemed like a web spell. It had the web visual and the boots did not work.

Location: The ruins in the quest

Verified: Here is part of my logs from the battle. It clearly shows the boots not working.

Reproducable: I have not dared try to duplicate this on my own.

[Dorganath]

Actually, this is working correctly.

The Boots of Arachnea give a specific immunity to Web (spell or spell-like ability)

The Shambling Doom Tyrant uses a different kind of web (Bebilith Web, to be specific), which is not a specific immunity of the boots.

I was in the Deep on a quest and my Arachnea boots failed in a web also...now I know why....thanks

I might also point out that this typo was quickly corrected, though said correction was cut off in a premature ending of the posted log.

Yes that was in reference to a direct question in the DM channel of why he only got 41 exp from the kill.
