Wojit - He likes rice. ----------------------------------- Rice with what ? Just plain rice ? hmm Spiders dont level up. Familiars level up but starting power depends on magickal aptitude. Mind controlled level up if you can keep them but you lose them on the world map.
If a mechanical spider can't level up, then gradually it will become more useless. Can it be upgraded? Also, Can non - familiar animal party members level up?
*MILD SPOILERS* I'm pretty sure you can find schematics to upgrade the clockwork decoy and mechanical spiders. You might even be able to build automatons! Ummm, the fact that mech spiders don't level won't necessarily make them useless - cannon fodder is useful regardless of their level...*eg*
