Make Spiders Move Faster

Mobs are usually seen as too weak because they move too slowly.

Before sprinting was added, they were just fast enough to be a threat, but their speed wasn't changed alongside sprinting, so they move so slow.

The spider was made much faster than other mobs to make them a threat, and were balanced by making them only attack you in the dark.  But of course, now they aren't much of a threat to anything besides starving players.

So what if they were returned to their former glory?

Give them a movement speed buff to make them just as if not slightly faster than sprint jumping players.

There should be at least one mob that is always threatening to the player no matter how geared up they are, so what better mob than the spider, the one monster that was made to be a huge threat

    I think making mobs faster in hard mode would be a great addition! Keep it easy for casual players and give the option of real dangers for players looking for a thrill
