Abilities

Larval northern dune tiger beetles can capture small enemies nearby and execute them one at a time. They bury themselves in the ground and only expose themselves for 10 seconds to attack. They don't come out when there are over 3 viable targets nearby.

Small and large beetles use basic attack by biting. They can stun enemies.

Large beetles can carve enemies and damage them over time.
