Deutoros-pattern Scarab: Difference between revisions

This is when the Scarab, was first seen, rather than described, and appeared as a large, four legged, silver armoured behemoth, with an estimated height of ninety feet. It featured a deck on top that was guarded by numerous Elites, Jackals and Grunts along with a walkway going over the entrance to its control room. There were two spine mounted plasma cannons to provide anti-air defense. Its shell was invulnerable to damage from 90mm shells, missiles, .50 cal rounds, and ANVIL HE missiles (the armour could be similar to the ship plating the Covenant use on their starships) it proved vulnerable, to boarding actions and destruction from inside. Bungie themselves have joked that this Scarab looks more like a basket than an actual assault platform.
