When a statblock has to be used both as a enemy type and player option, there's going to be design spaces that aren't typical. But that means that OP should understand to play into having a spider, not just a companion. The spider has exceptional stealth at a +9, meaning they're better than even a rogue. There's plenty of OOC uses for this, like stealing and stalking someone. It can also be useful to stealthily dismantle a group of weak enemies one-by-one, especially since it doesn't kill and an intruding wolf spider isn't necessarily a reason to suspect an invasion beyond a single pest if its spotted. But if you're engaging in direct combat, you might want to avoid it getting into combat.</blockquote>
