To defeat the Acromantula in Quest Search for Tobbs, you will first need to develop your spell fighting abilities. This was probably one of the hardest battles because of the enclosure environment and endless spiders that can be summoned. It is important you stock up on healing potions, since you are alone, you will not have any cover while the Acromantula attacks. Acromantula attacks are very basic and should be fought with Red Spells (fire based) and Thunderbrew. Dodging direct attacks to the right and then attacking with a spell, or grabbing distant object to attack with.

Attacking Strategy to the Acromantula Boss Battle
The Acromantula attack starts with 3 direct attacks you should dodge 3 times from. You will need to hit it with your red attacks as often as you can. At this point, I throw off Thunderbrew to deal with the many spiders attacking at once and to give openings to attack the Acormantua head on. I would advise having 2 Thunderbrew potions on hand to ensure you keep the smaller spiders off you while attacking. Acromantula direct attack appears in red so it has to be dodged and the smaller spiders will attack you with a change to block and cast stupify.
Next, you can follow up and while the Acromantula is standing under a spider column use a fire attack (incendio) to have it land on the Acromantula speeding up its demise. The Acromantula will use an attack where to lunges at you from the other side of the room with no notice so be aware of its placement in the room.
It is important to know that if you do not use Thundrebrew, the onslaught of attacks may end you before you can heal. If that is the case, dodge and attack is you best option. Once the Acromantula heads under ground it is pretty much at its end but more spiders will come up, so don’t let you guard down.
Recommended Thunderbrew Potion and Red Attacks
In this battle, I highly recommend red attacks Confringo, Incendio, Expelliarmus, and Diffindo, as the primary attack spells to defeat Acromantula. I always recommend Thunderbrew Potions used to throw off multiple opponents especially spiders.
