Re: Scarabs not dieing and are overpowering.

Scrabs are still an issue. Their description says they can attack any ground unit, but they can also attack air units. Either the description needs to be updated, or the ability of the scrabs.

  • Agreed, I just tried countering with shockwave, rockets, Rhino, and pitbulls and all got 1 shotted. Plus looking at the DPS of the scarab it’s listed as 800, and health 250. Even if they’ve been upgraded a bunch they should not be able to wipe out units with almost 3,000 health

    There are a couple of ways to counter Scarabs: One is killing them whilst they are moving (since they can't attack on the move) and two is to spam cheap units to let them die to them (since Scarabs sacrifice themselves when attacking).

    In regards to health and DPS, level 9 Scarabs have 1.506,4 DPS per unit, meaning they are able to kill 3k health units with their double attack. Apart from that, they leave fire behind, which will slowly do damage as well and possibly kill any unit standing in it with little health left after the original attack.
