Most of the time, higher tier monsters have all the abilities of preceding tiers, with increased intensity.
Scuttlebot Traits by Tier
All Tiers
Scuttlebots are small, four-legged mechanical robots that move in a similar fashion to Chromalisks, and are often considered one of the least threatening clockwork monsters. They shoot a spread of three large bullets in a very short range.
Strategy
Guide: Scuttlebot Combat
Scuttlebots are generally one of the least dangerous monsters in the clockworks, but can become dangerous in large numbers or in situations where the player is distracted by more dangerous enemies (such as the Roarmulus Twins or Battlepods). Their bullets travel a very short range. They have a considerable delay between attacks that can be interrupted by almost all attacks. Either bait an attack and take a few steps away, then counterattack or relentlessly attack them as each hit will cancel their attack, thought it won't work if there is a large group of them.
