Having '''Spinnerets''' also makes you immune to getting stuck in [[asphalt]] and [[honey]] as well.
{{name}} allows a creature to spin {{favilink|web|plural}} (and to spin {{favilink|phase web|plural}} while [[phased]]). Having {{name}} also makes a creature immune to getting stuck in other creatures' webs. Furthermore, it makes a creature immune to getting stuck in any substance (such as {{favilink|asphalt}} or {{favilink|honey}}). Beginning to spin webs is a free action that does not take up a turn.


The {{Favilink|web|plural}} spun will have a save target of (15 + Level) and a max weight of (120 + 80 * Level)
As the level of {{name}} is increased, the save difficulty for other trapped creatures to escape the webs increases, as does the maximum weight that the webs can hold. Phased webs are slightly stronger than normal webs in this regard.


If the creature is [[phased]] while spinning webs, it will create {{favilink|phase web|plural}} with a save target of (25 + Level) and a max weight of (520 + 80 * Level).

Spinnerets allows a creature to spin webs (and to spin phase webs while phased). Having Spinnerets also makes a creature immune to getting stuck in other creatures' webs. Furthermore, it makes a creature immune to getting stuck in any substance (such as asphalt or honey). Beginning to spin webs is a free action that does not take up a turn.

As the level of Spinnerets is increased, the save difficulty for other trapped creatures to escape the webs increases, as does the maximum weight that the webs can hold. Phased webs are slightly stronger than normal webs in this regard.
