Scarabs rework proposal
Not sure if discussed in past but want to talk about SCARABS. Only current early game hard counter are snipers. But they come at level 54 and scarabs are at 44 so that’s already terrible set up. Two ...

In theory the damaging flame sounds bad; in practice it's usually simple enough to fly an anti-inf aircraft over it, run an anti-inf vehicle through it, or run anti-inf infantry around it. 🙂
You might also want to know that any pro (I'm not a pro!) can tell you that Scarabs have been considered NONcompetitive for a long time. Scary for newer players when they look at it on paper but a joke for most in practice. And not just because Snipers. Standard meta is to rush the two basic infantry/later on doggos became an option/and now cyberwheels - that's standard meta for a good reason. 🤓
I used to counter them quite effectively with $10 drones. Now since they upped the price of the drones to twenty bucks, I can no longer counter them until I reach hi tiers units.
Devs. Why such hate for GDI? The increase to 20 bucks now really puts the favor on NOD. They weren't powerful to begin with and any missile or laser trooper could easily take them out.
- MarineCpl. Thanks for the reply. Just wanted to clarify...The thing that made me post this in the first place is the fact that a middle or laser trooper CANNOT take them out. A scarab can literally walk up, charge and blow up your infantry and at a lower level too(level six scarab vs level 9 missle trooper). To me that’s ridiculous. That’s not how they are designed to work. They are supposed to be siege/defensive units and if they are being used as attacking units. that’s simply wrong.
