Scarab family
Scarab Demon
Huge corrupted beetles rush and surround prey, releasing a spread of charged lightning whenever they are struck. From a gameplay standpoint, Scarab Demon shoot out Charged Bolt when struck, much like any Lightning Enchanted Unique monster. With their innate Lightning abilities, you may want to consider putting on items with resistance to lightning when engaging groups of these creatures. Avoid getting caught withinin a pack of Scarab Demon - if surrounded, your life expectancy is sure to drop. Keep moving and try to engage these one at a time. Use your strongest possible attacks so they shoot out a minimal number of Charged Bolt. Scarab Demons have a Jab attack. Death Beetles heal 50% faster than normal monsters. Scarabs heal twice as fast as normal monsters. Steel Scarabs heal 150% faster than normal monsters. Bone Scarabs heal three times as fast as normal monsters. Dung Soldiers, Scarabs, Steel Scarabs, and Bone Scarabs have a chance to deal Lightning damage. Death Beetles have a chance to deal Lightning and Poison damage.

D2Emu Tips
- Use lightning resistance and strong, deliberate hits to reduce how many Charged Bolt bursts you trigger.
- Keep moving and engage them individually when possible; striking a tightly packed group can fill the area with bolts.
- Stronger variants regenerate rapidly, reaching three times normal healing for Bone Scarabs.
- Dung Soldiers, Scarabs, Steel Scarabs, and Bone Scarabs can add Lightning damage; Death Beetles can add both Lightning and Poison damage.
