This is a dangerous activity.
If you die, you will lose your items and will need to reclaim them from Death or your grave.
For corrupted scarabs that spawn in Sophanem Slayer Dungeon, see Corrupted scarab.

Corrupted Scarabs may appear around Shifting Tombs entrances in Menaphos, at the mine in the worker district, and outside the Sophanem Slayer Dungeon periodically. They can be burst to gain a small amount of Reputation and a high amount of Slayer experience. However, this also deals damage to the player. If multiple players click the same scarab they will all be able to burst it even if one player clicks later and the scarab has already been burst showing the splatter animation where it was. It's not known if this is intentional or a bug.

Background

After a teaser for the Magister, the scarabs started spawning in Menaphos.

Mechanics

  • The scarabs appear in Menaphos occasionally and will remain there for up to 5 minutes.
  • There is a small chance of receiving a small bonus experience star or an amount of coins while bursting them.
  • When scarabs spawn in a world, there is a game message: Agitated scarabs have burrowed up onto the surface and are spreading corruption!
  • Swarms appear at all four Shifting Tombs entrances simultaneously. A player may enter the shifting tombs and go back to the same district to respawn swarms rather than quick travelling to another district.

Experience

The experience and reputation gained from the scarabs decreases with the amount of scarabs squished. This decrease resets at 00:00 utc.

Transcript

Tips

  • Because Scarabs spawn at every entrance to the shifting tombs on the same world it is not necessary to fast-travel. Instead, the Player can stay in one spot.
  • It is recommended to stay at the merchant district entrance, because you can heal at the bank when your health is low.
