Thanks to the recent patch, Broodmothers scream is finally perfect blockable (and therefore, a no-damage run is possible). However, her scream still will give a debuff that decreases the players damage by 50%. Patience is a virtue, I suppose.
Instead of using multiple options as I did here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zO_4w8sHXM), one can use the Spicy Staff with *Spicy Mage to deal good damage to her and her minions, simplifying ones efforts in the battle.
Broodmother calls for additional spiders at 75%, 50%, and 25% health, with each breakpoint causing her to scream. After blocking said scream, one should focus on the spiderlings and orb weaver jrs more than herself, as theyre more likely to damage the player. If any are infused, it will be a thorn in your side for significantly longer, especially while debuffed.
Unlike the older version of Broodmother, she gets an attack speed boost upon reaching 25% of her health, so be wary of that.

Items and Equipment:
Spicy Staff Lv. 15 - Normally, its too slow to be an effective weapon. Thanks to Spicy Mage, the staff can now reach attack speeds that were previously unimaginable.
Glowbasa Necklace - Implant Weakness: Spicy / Spicy Mage / Blastwave
*Implant Weakness: Spicy - Adds a debuff that gives an enemy 50% increased damage to spicy
*Spicy Mage - Every hit performed by the Spicy Staff will increase attack speed by 15%, stacking up to five times
*Blastwave - Any summons created by the player have a 25% of creating an explosion that does 70 damage upon hitting the enemy, of which this damage can affect the player. Needless to say, this wasnt useful here
Wizard Hat Lv. 9 (Sleek) - Used for Wizards Defense and Wizards Duel. Wizards Defense increases the parry window by 30ms for 10 seconds with staves when one attacks with ranged weapons, and Wizards Duel increases the damage of staves by 40% for 10 seconds when one successfully perfect blocks.
Black Ox Harness Lv. 9 (Sleek) - Its sleek effect adds quickcharge, reducing the charge time of attacks by 12%.
Black Ox Legwraps Lv. 9 (Sleek) - Same as the above.
-
Food and Drinks: (due to the cooldown for using buffs, I skipped recording these actions)
Perfect Toast - +5% crit chance and +40% to critical hit damage
Boss Sauce - +5% crit chance
Liquid Rage - +10% attack
Green Machine - 20% faster stamina recovery
Boost Juice - +20 stamina
-
Mutations:
Whittle Wizard Lv. 3 - Helps the Spicy Staff apply a burning DoT modifier that does 75 damage every 5 seconds. In addition, it reduces the stamina cost for multiple attacks. The true spiderling murderer.
Parry Master Lv. 3 - Every perfect block recovers 100 stamina, which helps offset some of the stamina use.
Natural Explorer Lv. 3 - Despite combat significantly reducing the speed this gives, what little it does helps get away from those pesky spiderlings.
Coup De Grass Lv. 2 - 5% crit chance, stack all the crit.
Trapper Peep.R Lv. 3 - 60% more damage from critical hits, pairing nicely with the other buffs.
Lastly, the Broodmother mount was used for an extra 20% damage increase.
-
*Notes:
- If she has Venom Coating, she will inflict it with her screams, preventing a no-damage run entirely. As the devs are fixing infusion effects on attacks such as this, this is likely a leftover bug.
- Spicy Mages effect stays on for as long as youre using a staff, so you can freely switch to a more damaging trinket once you have five stacks built up. Ironically, I learned this *after* I completed this video.
- If only the Mantis could get balanced in this manner...")

Imagine having a faster attack speed than the Infected Broodmother.

Fury is working correctly in this patch, and +Unarmed Attack allows Lil Fist to compete with other weapons once it has max stacks. In addition, as long as one doesnt change weapons, Fury can also be chained with other trinkets to increase the players stats further, such as myself reaching 110% attack speed here. Unfortunately, many skills that should work when combined with Fury have no effect, but they might in a future patch. If one didnt know, specific weapon buffs will stick around even if trinkets are switched mid-fight, and Fury allows for many otherwise unavailable combinations.
As for this fight, while it is possible, I dont recommend doing this solely on the phase change for the final phase alone due to the very high risk of getting hit by magic/bomb infusions when IBM fakes dying. One can manage to stun her to skip this danger during the first phase change due to fists having decent stun + Crit Stun from the Assassins pieces, but the third phase shift killed more than the third phase itself (one will see me hesitate much during the last part of the second phase solely for this reason).
Not worth it, honestly. (Lil Fist is, though!)
As for the general strategy, one should start with a Science Cone/Glowbasa Necklace that has at least Fury + Samurai, then switch to one that has at minimum +Unarmed Damage so that IBM gets stunned when she has around half of her health remaining. To increase the chances of ending phase one successfully, temporarily unequip the shield to gain an extra 20% damage and re-equip it when the second phase starts. When safe from her infusion effects, switch to a trinket with Fury + Mad Scientist to build additional buffs, then switch back to the damage trinket once near the end of the phase. Depending on whether you want to use the Smasher mutation or Termite armor to reduce her heightened attack speed in the third phase will determine if you wish to pair another trinket with Fury and +Unarmed Damage or want to use a +Unarmed Damage trinket with additional modifiers such as +Boss Damage.
It took me almost a week to farm the trinkets needed for this fight.
Once again, I dont recommend this.

Items and Equipment:
Strong Hand - And what a strong hand it is, thanks to Fury.
Ladybird Shield - There is a 25% chance that blocking with this shield will apply the stamina buff that allows the player to use no stamina while attacking for 5 seconds.
Glowbasa Necklace #1 - Fury / +Mantis Damage / Samurai
*Fury - Has the same effect as the Power Droplet, of which it adds an additional hit to unarmed attacks that do 6 damage and have a 25% chance to trigger specific mutation, armor, and trinket effects
*+Mantis Damage - Increases damage against the Mantis by 30% (Not useful here)
*Samurai - Every hit with katana-type weapons increases attack speed by 10%. This can stack up to 5 times. Although fists arent katana-type weapons, thanks to Fury, the game considers them as such
Glowbasa Necklace #2 - Mad Scientist / Fury / +Summon Aggro
*Mad Scientist - Using the Pinch Whacker or Prod Smacker can increase attack damage or speed by 10%, exhaustion time by -10%, or increase crit chance by 1%. This only happens every 10% of hits. This also triggers Furys effect
*Fury - (see above)
*+Summon Aggro - Increases the aggro chances for a summon to get attacked by the target (Not useful here)
Glowbasa Necklace #3 - +Critical Hit Chance / +Boss Damage / +Unarmed Attack
*+Critical Hit Chance - Increases crit chance by 5%
*+Boss Damage - Increases damage against bosses by 30%
*+Unarmed Attack - Increases fist damage by 100%, which is quite good once Lil Fist stacks are maxed out
Eyepatch Lv. 0 - Adds 10% more to ones attack but at the cost of taking 25% extra damage.
Assassins Chestplate Lv. 9 (Sleek) - Critical hits have a 30% chance of causing a bleed debuff. Since the Infected Broodmother is 60% resistant to bleed, this ends up doing 8 damage a second for 10 seconds. In addition, each crit has a 30% chance to add 25 stun to IBM, thanks to Crit Stun.
Assassins Greaves Lv. 9 (Sleek) - Same as the above.
Termite Armor Lv. 9 (Sleek) - This armor piece has a 10% chance to kick up dust upon hitting the enemy. While inside the cloud, the enemys attack and movement speed are lowered by -20% until the effect ends. It also grants you immunity to the same dust cloud.
